Down in Down Under - Diary - 23/09/02

new job @ workIrish Matthew left last weekend and I took over his job today - stacking boxes. This job is much harder than I thought but at least it is clean work. After work I donīt spend an hour in the shower trying to clean my hands. On the whole the job is to fill up palettes with banana boxes. A few facts: 13 kg per box, 8 boxes per layer (104 kg), 9 layers (72 boxes, 936 kg), at least 20 palettes per day (1440 boxes, ca. 19 t), 5 days per week (100 palettes, 7200 boxes, ca. 100 t) and all this only for Australia - no export. There are a lot of banana farms in Far North Queensland - incredible!After work I quickly went to the music shop and bought a blues harp. You go to Australia and buy a German brand name - Hohner. Inspired by Chris, who started playing the mouth organ here as well, I decided to learn to play this little nice instrument, too. Like every Monday evening we went to the soup kitchen, this time with digicam. |
