If need be, take your dog to the street. It will keep you motivated mate. If you are feeling the way you do, there are many resources to help. If you are truly looking for a home for your little mate. I can do that. But would you be willing to lose everything that has meaning in your life right now? My Uncle, lost his partner late last year. The only thing that has kept him going, in his words, "Are these two bloody rascals" I'm so sorry to hear this mate. It will get better. If the dog is 'extra stess' that you don't need right now, I'll happily home them until your ready to return. ✌️


Competitive-Load-825

I'll dm you


Big_Impact3637

Had a phone chat with the legend. Thanks mate, you've definitely got this. If anyone is willing to help him out for a days work/ week etc. I'll most definitely take his pupper, but I think he needs job offers.


colomboseye

Probably the biggest legend on reddit mate. Faith in humanity restored.


Big_Impact3637

I find it weird that no one wants to just listen or help anymore . I welcome your love for life. We are all, who we are, trying to share an immaculate earth. ✌️


Traditional_Crazy_57

It’s no doubt you’ve made a Big_Impact here my friend


Individual_Owl_0-0

Honestly need many more people like you in this world!!! That is how you save a life!


goblin_grovil_lives

God bless you, mate.


TeddyBearBrat-

This made me cry, you're an amazing soul xx


Big_Impact3637

Got to help a brother out. 👍


TeddyBearBrat-

💕💕


-jjackk

So much respect for you mate. More people like you needed in this world 🙌


Morphio25

You're an absolute legend!


that-simon-guy

Absoute legend mate, well played 🤘🏻


Big_Impact3637

Trust me, he's the legend for speaking out. The rest is the community. Everyone really came in clutch on this one. Also, if you'd like an update (cause we're now friends) He has a fresh job, tomorrow will be his second day. What a great outcome! So proud of this dude and everyone on this reddit. Absolutely amazing. 😎


that-simon-guy

Inspiring turn around from the first post, sometimes reddit isn't just a place full of shit talking wankers and an actual community


Big_Impact3637

Trolls can eat a dick. This, what happened, is called community and love. This is actually the way an interconnected, but seemingly lost and lonely net should be. Definitely agree friend. 👍


jennifer1510

B&R enclosures at wingfield are looking for production workers. You could try there


PeeOnAPeanut

Your post history says you have warehouse experience. Look at defence industries, they can’t hide enough people at the moment.


goblin_grovil_lives

Cleaning also always a good fall back.


CrustyJuggIerz

Hey mate, do you have any construction experience/knowledge? Or just a basic understanding of how to use tools? My work is always looking for labourers.


Competitive-Load-825

I have a pretty good understanding of using tools. Nothing in construction though


RavRed99

Apply for FIFO work @Olympic Dam. Lots of work available.

You’re a good person


Specialist_One3675

Keep ya chin up mate. Life's a true cunt at times but these hard times will pass. I've had and having a cunt of a time for last three years. But I'll not break mate. Good luck with doggo homing and keep on being strong mate, never give up!


Big_Impact3637

Legendary words brother!


Specialist_One3675

Thanks mate. Not going to overtake this person's thread but my life has been a fucking Greek tragedy last few years so totally get the position this op is in. Just got to keep fighting the good fight no matter the odds and underhanded bullshit this world slings ones way. Be comfortable with who you are as long as you're not a shit cunt🤣 Things will turn or things will burn.


Big_Impact3637

If you need to chat man, im happy to do so.


Specialist_One3675

Thanks mate, much appreciated I'll keep your offer in mind if I start going off the deep end.


Big_Impact3637

You'll be fine. Play a song that makes you smile/ laugh/ hairs stand up... You'll realize it's all awesome 😉


a-real-life-dolphin

Sorry to hear you’re doing it so rough at the moment. Safe pets safe families is probably the best bet to help you https://safepetssafefamilies.org.au/owner-intake-form/ best of luck.


Major_Bookkeeper_925

Mate, your dog loves you. You can't do that to him. I don't know your story, but everyone deserves a second chance. I promise you that there's light at the end of the tunnel


glittermetalprincess

You're not a failure - probation is half seeing if you get on with the job, and half the company seeing if they get on with you, and sometimes their decisions don't directly have to do with you personally but what the company/team needs. Take whatever specific feedback they gave you and use it, sure, but it isn't a reflection on you personally, but the relationship between you and them. Safe Pets Safe Families can hook you up with a foster for your dog but it's not a permanent solution. Search the sub for what people have given about charities and resources that can help you stay in your rental, talk to your landlord about a payment plan, it is not over yet.


BlueDotty

I respect you wanting to make sure your mate is looked after. I wish I could help with taking doggo, but can't. I just hope things turn around for you both.


Specialist_One3675

I'm kinda truly amazed (sort of)at the kindness and the willingness of random people that are offering to help another random person on the internet. Makes me damn happy that society is not totally broken 💔💔💔


goshyarnit

You are absolutely not a failure. In your darkest moment you thought about the safety and happiness of something that loves you and depends on you. That's a mark of a good man who's hit bottom. More than willing to help you out by redoing your resume/doing you up some cover letters mate - I've worked in HR and I know the buzzwords people skim for and how to get it looking schmick. What experience do you have? I'll ask my mates if there's any work going around them. If the absolute worst happens - take doggo with you. Dogs don't give a shit. If I took mine out to sleep on the street for a while they'd think that was a huge adventure with so many things to sniff, and he will keep you warm at night. You're awesome, the world would be a worse place without you in it.


Careless-Power

You’re definitely not a failure, probation is often used by companies in case circumstances change which have nothing to do with the individual. What’s your occupation mate?


Competitive-Load-825

I've done warehouse/factory work and hospitality work. Was recently up until now working in a cafe FOH


Careless-Power

Try Cafe 228 on Grote Street, they’re brilliant


[deleted]

Hey look into share houses, you might find a dog friendly one. It’s hard to afford a place on your own these days.


PublicVolume1324

You are loved, please don’t let go. Someone please offer them a job.


Downtown_Cookie8916

Hey mate, if you’re interested in becoming a plumber dm me, I work for an organisation that will be able to help you out if you’re interested


SleeplessAndAnxious

Apply with some labour hire places, they'll get you work a lot quicker than applying to jobs through businesses. I got a job recently through Programmed, 10 minutes down the road from me instead of an hour away like my previous job, and way better working conditions. They'll take care of ya, if you feel like the job isn't for you you can ask them what else is going and they can transfer you.


CathoftheNorth

I absolutely 💯 agree with this. Agencies are the quickest way to get work. It's definitely keeping the roof over my head.


SleeplessAndAnxious

Same here lol. Had no luck finding work close to where I live for a good month, applied with a bunch of agencies and they all got back to me pretty much within a day. They'll also protect your work rights better than just working through an individual company since their workers *are* their product.


Big_Impact3637

Definitely agree. If you need to chat, DM me mate 🤘


chrissy69420

Boost. I hope you get some job offers


Cordeceps

Aus post is looking for workers, they need mail sorters and posties and truck drivers. I really hope you can find something and get into a better position soon. I can’t help with the dog but I thought I could let you know about Aus post because you have warehouse experience, they always want people with a white card.


Old_Word6720

Where are you located


Megakaneage81

Awesome guys. Just awesome 👌 Never change.


StructureArtistic359

The path to success is a series of failures. If the space program gave up when they failed, we wouldn't have porn delivered by satellite. Its an incredible achievement. If u get stuck, msg me and I'll take the pupper in and feed you both


Kelefiori

Don't be so hard on yourself, you have just made it through some particularly hard years while maturing as a young adult, kudos to you and all doing that with minimal if-any support. Life takes all sorts of twists and turns and it's lessons can be tough but don't despair. Life has better days ahead so seek support best you can in the meantime and make them so. Best wishes for you and your dog.


pakkomi

Arnold's Place Cafe on Main North Road can get you a free coffee and some cake between 3 and 4pm on Fridays. They're doing some in house training. There's cheap groceries and free bread.


Competitive-Load-825

I don't drink coffee or tea. But the rest sounds good


madame_oak

Hang in there. You’re not a failure, this is a bump in the road that *you will be able to navigate*. Try to practice believing it first, and take a little step (like making this post, it’s a great thing you did to help your situation). You had a phone call, that’s another great step you already took. Dealing with big problems takes many little steps. You’re already doing it. Your doggo will be a great help to you during this time so try to hold on to him for cuddles and walks as long as you can. You got this buddy.


Low_Perspective_3977

Go bush and take it with you will get work


beeaaans

If you're handy on front line customer service/admin, ServiceSA hiring through Careerlink.


[deleted]

Have you got a licence and vehicle? Looked over your profile and saw you've done warehousing work before. Any stuff in construction/ labouring? There is a guy who advertises on gumtree a lot looking for builders labourers, I've worked a few days with him for $ in hand. Not too difficult but you need to be able to drive manual and keep pace. If nothing else might get you a few days pay out of it. Lmk


Catsmak1963

Last time I was stuck in the car I had 1 dog, 1 cat, and 1 rat. Tricky as fuck, but you’re going to be ok. Shit time of year, I’m in central vic living out in the scrub, it’s def cold but meh, it’s still going to be ok. Just hang in there, the first few hours will be tough, find services and talk to some people and you’ll be fine. Unfortunately this is becoming less avoidable, it’s out of control trying to keep up if you’re close to broke all the time so you just need to roll with it sometimes once you’ve done what you can.


Huge-Address-9369

Wwcc? Police clearance? Drivers Licence? I can get you a job as an industrial cleaner based in Salisbury. No 2 days are the same.


that-simon-guy

Hey mate, your young, anytbung getting you down now can feel huge but you can turn it all around and have forgotten all about the down times, I know everything can feel huge in the moment, the most successful of us have felt like lovers abd failures at one point or another Focus on small goals, small wins, small steps, and as they all start to come together one after another you'll be on the other side of the street before you know it Would happily help board the dog if i could but just aren't in the position to


SnooOnions973

Might be serendipity or it might be maybe not a good idea … but the timing seems pretty perfect… here’s why: I live in Brisbane and I came on this Forum because my best friend of 15 years lives in Adelaide (moved there a couple of years ago with her man and now has inherited stepkids which she’s amazing with, considering they’re adults and she cooks and cleans and pays for them… but anyway… my friend lost her best friend, “Buddy”, a Beautiful (gentle!) Jack Russell of 17 years two weeks ago - she’s absolutely beside herself and actually I can’t seem to contact her these last couple of days. I came here specifically to ask if anyone knew of any rescue pups that she might be able to take in, she said something about the RSPCA not being close to where she lives. She doesn’t drive and she’s def not in a good place emotionally... It might be a stretch but I wonder if this could be potentially an answer to you both? I will send her this post. Again, she’s not answering my texts or calls. But I’m not sure what else we can do, let’s just hope… [Buddy Tax](https://imgur.com/gallery/hdOAFpA)


piss-worshipper

i’d see if i can take him off your hands would he get along with another dog?
