Deb Posted October 9, 2014 Report Share Posted October 9, 2014 IKNOWCB OH has 2 job interviews! So pleased for him as we were stressing as we were not getting responses. The one company wants to meet him on Friday evening and get copies of his passport, visa docs etc and start on the 20th subject to medical and police clearance! Much relief all around! Made up for you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pit can mean either daily commute or you drive in, stay for a swing and then drive home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SaffanZimbo Posted October 11, 2014 Report Share Posted October 11, 2014 Sorry to be dense, but what is drive in, drive out? Isn't that just normal commuting? DIDO entails jumping on a bus in this instance and driving hours to the mine site and spending 1 weeks on site and then back home after vs FIFO flying into site.
