Now Is The Time To Think 75,000 Hours Ahead

Before you choose a career, or a job, think a little. Remember that your working life will extend for forty years — for 75,000 working hours. That's a long time. Sufficient to carve a successful career ... and quite long enough to find every day a boring, frustrating grind.

Above everything else it's important to enjoy your job. And that's why we want to tell you about Felt and Textiles of New Zealand Limited—an organisation offering infinite variety and exceptional opportunities. Felt and Textiles operate 12 plants in New Zealand, employs 1,600 men and women. Factory workers, administrators and creative staff. Felt and Textiles is steadily adding to its manufacturing interests. Twenty years ago there was only the now famous Feltex; today Felt and Textiles produce more than a million yards of woven carpet a year, a million-and-a-quarter pairs of shoes and slippers, nearly all the felt and a large proportion of the underfelt, padding and flock made in the country. Laces, cords, webbing, nylon and terylene ropes, and fishing lines too.

It won't surprise you that Felt and Textiles is the largest single user of New Zealand wool. And it won't surprise us if you find that Felt and Textiles can offer the very career you've been looking for. Write for details to: The Personnel Manager,
