Just trying to figure out what the going rate is for a full time position in Australia. Also are we getting hit by the credit crunch back home yet, heard the mining industry is not faring so well.....

Plans for Compressed Earth Block Press? There are many commercially availiable earth block press machines for sale. I want to make - and maybe improve if I can, on a current design so that I can produce blueprints for free distribution. Are there any sites/plans out there to get me started on making a prototype. I am a draftsperson in California. My goal is to make a full set of plans for an easily made CEB press to post online for anyone - in any country - to download for free and make their own press. The web actually has no sets of plans you can download for free. Even portions of plans I have seen have no measurements to allow someone to fabricate one. My intention was to try to find a working set of plans, that had no patent and draw them properly (I have years of CAD drafting experiance) and get them online so that people could build the presses with basic workshop tools.

Does this sentence make sense? Additionally, the area will be useful for faster communication between engineers and draftspersons because it is located adjacent to the Engineering Department. This reduces the time of walking up/down the stairs to communicate with them. I think the last part is messed up. How can I correct it?

What people do for a career...? I have had alot of strange reactions when I tell people what I do for a living..... I would like you to imagine the situation... Your single, in a night club or out some where and a bloke (or woman) comes up to you. You start talking just general conversation when you ask..."So, what do you do for a living?" They answer "I'm a draftsperson" ***A draftsperson is a person who draws sketches, plans, or designs. EG: house design, mechanical design, landscape design etc.*** My question is: How would you react to this answer? What would you be thinking when someone tells you "I'm a draftsperson"? Would you try and change the topic quickly or would you genuinely be interesting in hearing about the details of his or her work? Does being a draftsperson even sound like interesting work? Do you get a stereotypical view of the person as being "a nerd" or "geek"? If you are a draftsperson... what do you honestly think of your job? The answers you give will be going into my report for TAFE (education purposes). Thankyou for your help.

Potential Job stringing me along way too long, what would you do? I moved to a Washington in June and had a job lined up ahead of time. I started working the day after I moved, but learned quickly that I hated my job. I started looking for another job in September. During my search, I was surprised to receive an email from a job I had applied for back in May. They said that they never filled the position and wanted to know if I was interested. I should say I am an interior designer and the position they mentioned was an Associate Designer position. I told them I am very interested, and we set up an interview. Before the interview I was asked to take an online personality test. I felt this was very strange, but did it knowing how much I needed something new. The interview went extremely well, and I left feeling very confident that I would have the job. My husband is working, so I took a risk and gave my notice where I was working because I was being treated so poorly. The potential job called me again, for another interview. This one did not go as well. They still seemed very excited, but were asking the same questions as the first interview and the job description began to change from an Associate Designer to a 'draftsperson'. They also had me take yet another personality test, and sent me home with their software so that I could train myself, unpaid. They told me to call them in 2 weeks. Of course, at this point I have started applying to other jobs, with very little to no luck. The 2 weeks passed, and I called the firm. They set up yet another meeting with me. This meeting was overwhelming and stressful. They told me they were interested in part time or contract work- still no mention of what the compensation would be- with no benefits. The position has now become 'grunt worker' They asked me to present them with an outline by tomorrow (the meeting was yesterday), basically outlining the benefit that I can be to the firm. The boss says "I know this is my job, but I'm delegating". YES, it is your job. I don't know your firm, so I can only tell you that I'll do a good job and do the best that I can. This is a decision THEY have to make. I am so stressed out and don't even know how to begin this outline. He was talking about me including things like training procedures and procedures for their overall work strategy. What would you do? I'm so desperate for a job, but I'm also tempted to tell them off. Oh, and the designer there is SO nice. I just love her and would have so much fun working with her. It's the boss I want to kill. I know it was stupid to quit before I had a new job. I even knew it at the time, but I was being treated so poorly, that I would take breaks to sit in the stairwell and cry. Just not worth it.

What do I want to be? (Drafting)? I like drawing floorplans for houses and something I really find fun is making houses in the Sims games. Now what I was thinking is, because I love drawing and making floorplans, I dont know if I want to be a draftsperson or something. (Not sure what that kind of career is called) Iam not sure. I know there is a Associates degree at my school for Engineering: Drafting Tech, but Iam not sure if that is what I want. What do you think? PS: Also Ive been looking at ITT Tech School of Drafting and Design.
