Station-hand (full time) 3-1987 to 9-1993 William Shumack (farmer) Palmer's Oakey New South Wales.

This full Time job as station hand continued until Bill was forced to give mr t the chop over crashing wool prices. The position entailed care of two thousand five hundred sheep, one hundred and fifty breeding cattle, general running and maintenance of the farm.  Lots of Time was spent on horseback, four wheel drive vehicle and foot, cruising the hills. Constructing a steel shearing shed during this Time smartened up my skill in the art of welding. This neighbor died recently. i can still help out on his place.

Welfare Worker: (casual - full time)    1982 to 1996

In 1982 I was employed by Katoomba Youth Refuge to help establish a new Crisis Residential Care Unit, later transferring to ‘Veritas House’ a similar institution in Bathurst. In addition to this work I was employed by the department of youth and community services as minder and escort, the latter chauffeuring clients in areas from Bathurst to Bateman’s Bay, Lightening Ridge & the Central Coast. In 1996 I worked full time at The Hall for Children in the Blue Mountains as personal care worker for disabled. This institution closed.

I was founder of this business. It's still operating today. During the Time a clientele of around one hundred and fifty was achieved. This was primarily servicing boat moorings, building jetties and pontoons. Some salvage work was done on occasions and 'ice creams' sold by boat in weekends. Several government contracts were undertaken including assisting the connection of ‘the seacon cable’ at Bondi for O T C.

Jock Leate Camera Stores was a chain of camera & hi-fi stores. I managed stores at Roselands, Miranda Fair, Campsie and Hurstville. At one point Jock went overseas for about a year appointing me general manager. A re-organisation of business practice saw good profits during that Time. I left this job once i'd started Port Hacking Marine Services.

This was my first job after school. It began at Brighton Le Sands, a black & white film processing laboratory. (remember the box cameras?) From there to Annandale warehouse and retail sales in George street after that. This was great, experiencing solving customer's problems. From here to professional sales and technical services. i joined army reserves, driving studibaker trucks in spare Time. I left Kodak for adventure in New Guinea.

Hobbies & interests:- 
I suppose you'd say my hobbies are writing, photography, sailing, farming; gardening and public speaking will be rolling in well soon hopefully.  I like Ideas; writing, salad, sardines, outdoors, animals, nature in general; driving; touring; singing; and I suppose you'd say i Hate; fighting, ridicule, bullying, government as it is; tripe, eating brains, tongue, pretense, lies and wasting time. I read a good bit these days; the local paper; sometimes morning herald, especially on the web, web stuff, technical stuff and so on. Earlier few and far between readings  included Robinson Crusoe, Swiss Family Robinson and Victor Schauberger's 'Living Water'.
(of course there's plenty more between those lines, likely interesting and possibly beneficial to someone.)
