My mate got me a job of sorts, it's a vodafone call centre selling mobile phones.

I am still doing my trip but for the next two weeks I have to turn up to an office just north of Brisbane and proove that I'm an above average phone rep.

BUT after that two weeks they will give me a mobile phone with unlimited credit so that I can make calls and sales WHILE I'm travelling around the country!

So today was the first day and I did quite well so as long as I keep it up I'll be able to start travelling again in two weeks.

It's also a great chance for me to put some imediate money aside towards the rest of the trip.
