Andrew,
What a great Christmas present. I presume that this is at Research Services at Homebush in Sydney. Have the staff in other state factories also been cut?
I sometimes get enquiries from food companies in Qld re vacancies. If you can email me a list of people who would be willing to work in Qld, I can distribute it when I get some enquiries.
It's a long shot but worth a try.
