A ten month fixed term long haul contract was offered to MAM casuals not long ago, i don't think many people took it with the knowledge that you wouldn't have a job at the end of the contract. I know of about three people in Perth who put in an expression of interest but never got one response, obviously it was all focused on the other bases and poor old Perth missed out, again. As said previously i guess it comes down to individual situations? Good luck and enjoy to anyone that takes the contract!!!!
