hi
at present i do supermarket refrigeration, i have had a very colourful career in the refrigeration industry over many years.
light commercial
supermarket
air conditioning
straight forward splits, multi splits, vrv, vrf, package
im what you would call i suppose a dual trader i can do refrigeration aswell as air con service and installation.
also during my career i have worked in western australia for 5 years doing supermarkets, also did work for DOF subsea working on chillers for dive chambers which i found very interesting.
i have always been curious about offshore work but never really looked into it, is it an experience is there alot to learn, is there people on here who have a great career in it or have had a great career doing offshore work.
i have always imagined it to be cut throat ie you go to work one day with a uniform on and wake up the next day and put another on.
i suppose it can be like that in the supermarket industry but you know there,s always work there.
i wouldnt really want to jump the gun if i was ever offered work offshore and find myself out of a job in 12 months time thats why i have never felt like a dabble and looked into it.
BUT IM STILL CURIOUS.
the company i work for now is a great company its a large company and you have your knobs like every other large company, but i feel i dont get paid my worth im a complete work horse. i love my job refrigeration that is, you never stop learning, and i thrive off that.
i might sound like a complete spotter but i believe if you choose a career be the best you can be at the job you choose.
at the company where i work at present i do that and dont benifit in the slightest you just get the call if the **** hits the fan to pull them out of the ****, well i think it needs to be no more yes man for a while.
my old man said to me many years ago nobody hands you life on a plate you have to go out and live it and make the best of it.
this is the reason i am still curious am i missing an oportunity, i cant see things in the future changing for me where i work now.
i would still be in oz if the wife and kids didnt get homsick now im back in blighty and have to make the most of it.
if anyone can give me any feedback on offshore work that would be great?
also if anyone who has been in a position i am in now what did you do?
kind regards
