I look after the turf at Kings Park (Perth's Botanical Gardens) and I LOVE IT!
The pay is not the best but I seriously must have the best "office" view in the whole of Western Australia. Here is what I get to look at every working day.. (Note how good the grass looks ;))

I work for good ol' Telstra as a WA Workflow Co-ordinator, a pretty unique position as there are only about 12 of us in the whole of Australia.
I make sure your requests for Telstra products/services is sent the right person with a minimum of fuss...not the most exciting job in the world but it pays well

Okay I've watched this post for a while & am amazed at the amount of cool jobs people have.
I design & engineer childrens pedal cars & wheel toys in WA. I then have them contract manufactured in China & sell them all round the world. I supply about 300 shops in Australia. www.pedalcar.com.au. Before that I had an Enzed hose business & before that a mechaniacal work shop. |
