Swing: Your roster cycle is a swing. For me a swing is 5 weeks (4 wks on and 1 week off)
Donga: Every Eastern Stater giggles when they here this one. It is actually your cabin. A cyclone proof air conditioned room with a window, bar fridge, television and single bed with a separate toilet and shower attached.
Permanent/Casual: Full time employee that can be finished up with minimal notice.
Window seat: If you muck up on site and break rules in camp or on the job, a window seat is booked for you on the first flight back to Perth. They are tough on any indiscretion.
Motelling: Generally once your Donga is assigned to you, you can leave your personals in it for the length of your time at that site. When you go on leave you just lock it up and return back to it. If you have to pack up and put your stuff in storage when you are on a break then you are "motelling". No-one likes motelling.......
