I am 22 years old and work as a Line Assistant at Endeavour Foundation Packaging Solutions in Wacol. As a young bloke I was “just delivering papers” before starting work at Endeavour Foundation when I was 17. The money I earn really helps out with my family. It puts food on the table. Otherwise we’d be living on Baked Beans. I was only getting Starter Allowance before I worked at Wacol which gave me about $100 a fortnight. I love my working environment. I have met and made many new friends and learnt a variety of new skills. I now hold down a Line Assistant position in the ‘Red Bulls’ Team which I help run along side my Supervisor. I have a partner at home and a baby boy, work is very important to me so we don’t live in poverty and on the streets. I’ve been independent for about 7 years now, and I want to keep it that way.
