I am a fresh face to the livestock industry with a passion for cattle, i have worked cattle for roughly 9 months in various conditions, seasons and environments. the Prior year and 7 months of workplace experience i have is with dry land cropping of which i was working for my family in Coonamble, New South Wales until there was a death within the family causing a falling out on bad terms between myself and other family members.
After the falling out i applied for a first year position at Innaminka station and instantly fell in love with the job, sadly i found that the desert was not an environment suited for myself. After leaving G&C Pastoral i walked into a stock handling position at the Roma Cattle Sale Yards working for Outcross Agri-Services, i strived within the environment but as a casual employee i was not getting the hours of work i needed to suffice in life with.
I am currently working for a Gentleman by the name of Harley Mace on 66'000 acres positioned between Morven and Augathella. I am currently only on $15 an hour and i cannot see myself creating a viable and self sufficient life for my behalf on the rates i am currently on.
Despite the hardships i have come to love working livestock and i have picked up valuable knowledge within my first year around cattle. further more i would love to expand my horizons and have a go at feedlotting weather it be ground work, feeding, tractor work ect. I am an avid worker with a want for knowledge and i am constantly wanting to learn different methods to the work i do so i can preform within the best of my abilities.
i am a single 19 year old with no pets, i am a non smoker with tidy habits and a work ethic bar to none with the stereotype of my generation.
