Well I may as well add how I got to where I am.
We lived on a property so my first paid job out of school was shooting pigs and Roos for money. We took them into town where they were all put into a refrigerated semi trailer and we were paid by the kilo. Sold as game meat in Europe... The farm is where I learnt how to drive / ride. Used to drive our semi when I was 14.... Moved to the Sunshine Coast and had a number of jobs before moving to Brisbane after a courier company I had bought into went bust. Worked for the City Council for 12 years before the old boy asked me to come & learn the business.
I now run the family business, we make covers for spotlights usually found on trucks and 4x4's. They are sold all around the world, we also make the wind wings and sunvisors as sold by snake bite and AP.
As a farmer my father taught me to be a 'jack of all trades', you have to do that when you live so far from everything.
