for just on 6 years now. Been a good job I've been paid to travel and see most of
remote Australia. Been up and down the tanami desert track from Halls Creek to
Alice Springs several times. Been all over the Kimberlies and Kakadu.
Been down the Lajamanu track which is a real eye opener in N.T.

Most of you know already what we do but for the newbies i work as a Laboratory Supervisor on shift so there are two of us to cover both shifts ( we only do day work) and we also manage the Lab since the company decided not to replace our chief Chemist / Lab Manager. I have been in this role for about 5 years
The wife works as a nurse in a nursing centre and has been there since returning to work after having children .
