In It for the Long Haul by John Toomey Pdf

The aim of this book is to explore and reveal how people can turn FIFO into an extraordinary experience. Along the journey, it explores the lifestyle, the potential causes of mental illness, the many opportunities for great achievement and happiness, and a formula for making it work. Everyone who engages in FIFO work, whether it be for a few years or an entire career, gets to make the most of it and to make it a most loved part of their life.In the FIFO system, companies transport workers to and from the site in great comfort, they provide comfortable and private accommodation, plenty of freshly prepared food, recreational facilities, internet access, excellent pay, perhaps the safest working conditions in the world and they are governed by fair and equitable laws.On the other hand, FIFO work does not guarantee long term job security. Markets fluctuate, mineral deposits, oil reserves diminish, large infrastructure projects finish, economies often slow down, and demand often changes. Some projects have a definite length, like construction jobs, while others are subject to these oft-unpredictable factors.All of this means that working FIFO can be unpredictable and lacking in security. It can mean months off work with no pay, losing money on real estate investments and being forced to relocate to different parts of the country. It can be a rocky ride.This book looks at the "nitty gritty" of FIFO whilst keeping an eye on a much bigger picture. It helps the reader prepare for FIFO work and life so that they can optimise their experience, whether they are going solo, leaving a family, or if they are the partner or family member left at home.

The Mental Load by Emma Pdf

A new voice in comics is incisive, funny, and fiercely feminist. "The mental load. It's incessant, gnawing, exhausting, and disproportionately falls to women. You know the scene--you're making dinner, calling the plumber/doctor/mechanic, checking homework and answering work emails--at the same time. All the while, you are being peppered with questions by your nearest and dearest 'where are my shoes?, 'do we have any cheese?...'" --Australian Broadcasting Corp on Emma's comic In her first book of comic strips, Emma reflects on social and feminist issues by means of simple line drawings, dissecting the mental load, ie all that invisible and unpaid organizing, list-making and planning women do to manage their lives, and the lives of their family members. Most of us carry some form of mental load--about our work, household responsibilities, financial obligations and personal life; but what makes up that burden and how it's distributed within households and understood in offices is not always equal or fair. In her strips Emma deals with themes ranging from maternity leave (it is not a vacation!), domestic violence, the clitoris, the violence of the medical world on women during childbirth, and other feminist issues, and she does so in a straightforward way that is both hilarious and deadly serious.. If you're not laughing, you're probably crying in recognition. Emma's comics also address the everyday outrages and absurdities of immigrant rights, income equality, and police violence. Emma has over 300,000 followers on Facebook, her comics have been. shared 215,000 times, and have elicited comments from 21,000 internet users. An article about her in the French magazine L'Express drew 1.8 million views--a record since the site was created. And her comic has just been picked up by The Guardian. Many women will recognize themselves in THE MENTAL LOAD, which is sure to stir a wide ranging, important debate on what it really means to be a woman today.
