I was under the impression (and have been told by job agencies) that the wages for a mature aged apprentice were higher then that of an ordinary apprentice? I recently applied for an apprenticeship as a brick layer and was informed that the wage was ONLY $380 a week. Every apprenticeship (even mature aged apprenticeships) that I have applied for the wages have been very low. Does anyone know where I can find any info on these so called "mature aged apprenticeships"?
I need a change. If I'm still a "rent-a-cop" (security guard) after christmas I am going to snap


, I can feel it building up more everyday
