Mason,
it is very hard to get a job, although it is something to tie you over and keep you going,
does not hurt to give it a try, even if you don't want to do it in the end, just keep looking mate,
but in Redcliffe, there is a huge car scene and culture, people talk and you learn alot in that regard, so i believe it is a good base for networking,
and like most things mate, we all gotta start somewhere, but i need some tyres soon also, powerskids are killing me, haha so ill visit you
good luck
