Oates 'work experience' over the last few weeks, which he shared with listeners on the breakfast show's Find Corey a Job segment, included trying out gigs as an air traffic controller, real estate agent, counsellor, and retail sales assistant. The KIIS FM radio star, who co-hosted The Pick Up drive time show alongside Laura Byrne and Brittany Hockley, became emotional as he revealed the heartbreaking news to his co-stars.
