Shane Norman … Our Bloke

23 January, 2014 By Canowindra Phoenix Editor

How long have you lived in or around Canowindra? 6 years

What made you move here? Farming, I currently live with my brother on a family farm that is 350 acres.

Where do you work? OMG (Orange Motor Group) as a Service Advisor

What do you love most about working at OMG? Not having to wake up and shift irrigation pipes!

What do you love most about living here? Really friendly atmosphere and I love the rural lifestyle, everybody knows everybody.

What do you do in your spare time? I help my family out on the farm, we are currently cutting the Lucerne Hay so I’m helping them do that

How do you start your day? Leave home at about 6.30 for a 7.30 start and I get all the Service Orders ready so all the Mechanics are ready to go when they arrive.

What makes your day? Getting someone’s car fixed for them is very rewarding. I also enjoy the atmosphere at work; all the staff are really friendly which puts me in a happy mood.
