Gidday, if you are concidering working for Southern Cross Demolition, be very wary,
I worked for them last year in Mackay, june-december, flooded river, broco and underwater boosters most days, rigging 10,000kg + lifts, the owner of SCD told me and 4 other divers that there would be a bonus for piles removed, this was not fullfilled and there is around $20,000Aud owing to the dive crew.They are looking for a dive crew in innesvale nth qld, 30 an hr, look on seek jobs oz
Be wary

Well Hopkins its looks like your busted.
Sweetness of low price is soon forgotten with the bitterness of poor quality.
Getting run off for lack of ability and then you compound your lack of experiance with b****ing.
Your photo of shows your lack of experiance just by the way you are holding the Broco torch.
Why did not clean the line of cut before hand and where is your cutting guide so you can cut a straight line cut? Very unprofessional attempt. Makes all divers look bad.
Please stay out of the water till you obtain proper training.

Fred is spot on. It amazes me how bad some so called divers are at burning. I think it's fear. Sure it could be lack of training, but I've trained divers that continue to be bad performers. That is when you have THE TALK with them. They don't like it, and will hate you for it. But it is true. Most people are not cut out for this kind of work.

Paiste & Fred,
I agree, although and no excuses being made, some divers just dont see the time behind a torch as often as others. I myself have performed "some" burning but not enough to say I am the most proficient. On the flip side of the coin I have spent extensive time welding where others would be lost behind a stinger. I guess all im saying is that its good to have a crack on when you can but your ego shouldnt override your ability, as I'll be the first to state my burning experience if on a crew and it was put forth, but from the photo the lack of pre planning definately shows through.
Stay sharp and safe lads.

Hey Benjamin,
By no means was it meant to be a personal attack on you mate, all things above were meant on a general bases.
Where is Southern Cross Demolition based ? I spent 4 years in Cairns, Qld but back home in Canada now, more curiousity than anything else.
