I worked in the mines in a fly in fly out situation and it is dificult when you have a partner or family....but that is what you are paid the big bucks for and even if I could have lived in the town...I would have prefered to keep my life in Perth and my place which I had established for myself and partner.....so every job has its down side you could be a train controller living in Perth on shift work or a nurse or trainee doctor who has to ride a bike, rail, hail or storm from RPH to Cottesloe after a shift that finishes at 4.30am because there is no public transport after 1am and get shit wages for that...and they do this because it is safer than getting in their car and driving when they are tired....Life stinks and not everything is easy....so you get compensated if you are a miner...just not if you are a nurse or trainee doctor though....

Virgo

Matters of the heart take an unexpected turn today. You might be strongly attracted to someone you've never looked at twice until now, or you could fall for someone who's much older or younger than you. If you're already involved in a relationship, either you or your partner will want to make it more exciting and spontaneous. Is this a suggestion that will go down well?
