Is it common in FIFO to lose your job after six months?

2024/06 heading out to Thunderbox, open cut production, and i have been everywhere Iron ore Camps, let see what Gold Mineing going to offer.?

Well done, matey. My hubby fifo, almost every night he gets on fortnite to play squads with me/ son/ Grandies. We're usually top 10, often top 5. So, if you've been eliminated by Poppy Jeff or Grandma 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 It's how we keep connected with our fifo man. ❤

Great information, thank you!

Well said, communication is the one, mental health is hard.

less than a 5 minute video loved it. last video before bed because Im always stuck on youtube till late, and Im looking at OTR tyres or diesel mechanic as im a light vehicle dealership bases mechanic at the moment. 2 years in, save money invest in houses is my goal, thank you.

Wicket workers are just as important than clients

You nailed it! Thank you

Thanks for the video bro currently 26 from nz looking to transition make enough to buy a house hope to get into truck driving fifo

Stayed here for a week last October/November. It hasn't changed much from your video. New dining room will be opening tommorow.

it's a fn shit hole that's what I heard

That gym is mint. Is there meals for brekky, crib and dinner supplied?

Thank you so much, mate! I am going to FIFO (TBO site) next week, and this is my first time to FIFO. Your shares are more than helpful! Do you have any social media to which I may add you as a friend?

Awesome, I was in Port Douglas 6 months ago, missing it already and thinking of moving there from WA

Looks like a prison

Thanks for the tips brother , heading in next week and yeah family, goals goals goals and routines. Thank you ❤️❤️

@Toby/Kim Ferguson Many thanks for your video. I am a Brit about to head to Pilbara, WA doing FIFO 2:1 rosters as an exploration geologist. I intend to work over here for about two years, starting in Oct 2022. Communication with loved ones is definitely something I know is important as I have a girlfriend back in the UK who I will go back to visit at least once a year. Calling her frequently using the on-camp wifi is something I intend to do religiously after shift work as well. I know this sounds ridiculous and maybe rather frustrating to hear so many times as an Aussie, but in the remote exploration camps (e.g. in Pilbara), what are the risks of spiders and other wildlife being in your shoes, in the toilet or other cosy places in your accommodation? Is this something I should worry about and what tips would you best recommend to me in terms of safely dealing with or avoiding such encounters? The thing is because I am working in exploration, these camps I will be in will be much smaller and away from mining towns and large mine camps. I think risk of wildlife intervening with accommodation therefore poses a greater risk. The average spider I can deal with but Australia definitely has some rather dangerous critters.

Thanks mate. Wise words. I’m a early 40s bloke who considering a move into fifo. Your vid was helpful. Cheers.

Thankyou Toby great to visit my original Artwork in the Gym, big changes came in 2019

Thanks:)

Hey Tim mate I had a water filtration business in Port Hedland 15yrs ago and we gave big filters for your camp drinking water filtration system machines

About the head up to Thunderbox, what's your trade if you don't mind me asking? I'm Sparky.

Ur a smart man.

Speaking from experience, working FIFO you will develop a new appreciation for human society and civilisation!

are there any gyms at camp?

Thanks man Im a pretty quiet guy and didnt think I would have problems just staying in my room when I had down time but it was killing me

First problem skippers absolute s_hit

Cheers for the advice

Thank you for this my younger brother (23 years old )and I (29 years old) are planning on working in the mines this year we don’t have any families here in Australia and we’re alone in Melbourne no partners no kids either so we thought we might give mining a go

Thanx mate yep on the same track 1. Goal 2 communication 3 routine 4 mini goals... 5 Health. Cheers.

Thank you for the sensible tips. Are you still working FIFO?🙂

hey mate...whats your job in site?

Yeah - watch that 'free' food intake.

Thanks, man although I've done a bit of FIFO it was good to hear your info and it was appreciated and informative. Nice work.

Great. Thanks for your time and effort.

It’s not hard, the money is good, you don’t have to do dishes - just don’t be stupid. Like the guy says about goals and being frivolous

Helped me, thanks buddy 👏🏼

Nice one mate, you also managed to stay in good shape!

Perfect. I like to see men chat.

You are a cool dude man. Very honest from the heart

I am very interested, I have experience operating 785 dump trucks and caterpillar OHT 777 in coal mines in Indonesia. I want to join. How do I apply for a job, do I have a contact number that I can contact?

Thank you Toby moving back home from the UK with my family when my son has finished college here . Every little advice helps
