Fly in / fly out of remote minesites. 5-7 days straight off on your breaks, depending on roster. I do this in winter, seems to match winter wind patterns pretty well, and in summer 9-5 in Perth Monday to Friday and kite every day after work, daylight savings and all. It's an existence.
Before you ask, it still isn't easy to get a start on a minesite. Despite the boom there is still competition for these sorts of jobs. Actively persuing the work is the only way, perseverance.
The work isn't all that pleasant either, the high pay and long breaks reflects this.
Speaking of which, I should get back to it...
