Popular Post Timothy Maikshilo Posted March 12, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted March 12, 2015 Well Kristen and I decided to try something new and I've taken a job in New Zealand and headed out on Sunday landing Tuesday and starting Wednesday. Looking forward to the change and a new challenge. It will be awesome to be with my son again. The Superliner will return home to it's God Father Uncle Jeff for safe keeping.I'll be working for Fulton Hogan heavy haulage driving the T404 with a new 3 rows of eight trailer. Life is an adventure and I'm looking forward to it! 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Timothy Maikshilo Posted March 12, 2015 Author Popular Post Share Posted March 12, 2015 Thank you Gentlemen! I've always been one to think whats over the next hill and have done what ever I've wanted to do in life. Growing up in Connecticut I always told my Grandmother I was going to buy her farm and did. Pulled a low bed for 18 years. Bought a farm in Vermont in 1992 and milked cows from 2000 to 2010. Road Foreman for Pike Industries for 5 years and now to the next adventure! There are people who think we're crazy and I just smile and nod... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you need a work Visa? How do you set it up to stay and work in N.Z.? Ain't no illegal aliens are ya? 1 Quote "OPERTUNITY IS MISSED BY MOST PEOPLE BECAUSE IT IS DRESSED IN OVERALLS AND LOOKS LIKE WORK" Thomas Edison “Life’s journey is not to arrive at the grave safely, in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, totally worn out, shouting ‘Holy shit, what a ride!’” P.T.CHESHIRE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How do you set it up to stay and work in N.Z.? Ain't no illegal aliens are ya? Most definitely need a work visa and there is a lot required to get it. It is not an easy task by any stretch of the imagination. Takes a long time and plenty of patients. There has to be an area of need and skill required to get it. Now we are very much looking forward to it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
