[QUOTE="kiwi pom, post: 7804520, member: 946"] One of the managers at my first Kiwi job said there were pros and cons of having "imports" back for multiple seasons. A pro was, you knew where everything was and how things worked etc A con was as you spent more time here you got to know people, got a partner and wanted to do other things a bit more, which wasn't what an Ag contractor really wanted. If they sent you home for the day because it was wet, they expected you to be straight back in if they changed their mind or work every weekend etc. All good for a while ( I liked plenty of hours) but you get sick of not being able to make plans. Its probably true of Ag contracting work in general though, not just working in another country. [/QUOTE]
