Dave's Embarrassing Bike Incident, No-Shows at Work & One Nation on the Rise

Send us Fan MailDave's been off the tools for a while now, and this week he finally sits down with Drew to talk about why.A motorcycle stack left him with an injury that's kept him off site, and in this episode the boys get into what that's actually been like — the frustration of not being able to work, the boredom, and the bit nobody talks about: the guilt of leaving your crew short-handed.They also get stuck into the news of the week — One Nation's sudden surge in the polls and what's actually behind it, plus another serve for the government over how they keep fumbling the mining industry. And there's a good honest chat about happiness on crew, what makes a good culture on site, and why blokes taking time off shouldn't mean copping grief from their mates.Real talk, a few laughs, and the usual no-BS take from two blokes who've seen it all on site.Pull up a seat for this one.https://minersfinancegroup.com.au/This episode’s brought to you by our major sponsor, Miners Finance Group. I rate these guys because Dyllan’s one of us — a miner himself, 13 years as a diesel fitter before he became a mortgage broker. He’s not some bloke in a suit guessing at FIFO life; he knows how your roster, allowances and bonuses stack up, and how to maximise your borrowing power off the back of them. After a home loan and want a broker who speaks your language?
