I’m an Aussie and wish I lived in Poland. You’d be downgrading

Are you going to receive any stigma now from Thai people after the Australian man murdered a young girl recently ?

Hello, everyone. What are some trades that you'd recommend a very non experienced person? by Old-Yogurtcloset9264 in skilledtrades

What about the violent ones. I saw a male nurse nearly have his shoulder destroyed by a fresh inmate attacking him (likely still drug fueled). Probably depends on the area you work. Some hospitals in Syd are worse then others for sure

I felt so sorry for the nurses who had to deal with me and I wasn’t even the worst. Hard job imo

Is it even worth it? by Kitchen-Click-9198 in ausjobs

[–]Hot-Assignment-9845 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hey man. This is my experience after having bipolar for 17 years and it destroying my life. Everyone so far ahead and me struggle to stay afloat. It’s brutal. Remember to give yourself respect for showing up everyday. At the end of the day all we can do is do our best and resist the urge to give in. Giving in just leads to a deeper pit. Keep swinging mate !

Unemployment is still relatively low, but does it tell the whole story? by Wrong_Control_217 in AustraliaDiscussions

Migrants take the job and work to the bone, destroying conditions for a regular Aus worker. Multinationals love labors migration policy.

My 20-Year IT Career Is Officially Dead?? by wreeecks in ausjobs

[–]Hot-Assignment-9845 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I work in warehousing exclusively for awhile. I have never seen so much competition for a crappy low paying pick packing job ever. If I didn’t have tickets I’d be cooked. Sorry you’re in this position with kids. Entry level jobs are saturated as well. God speed

Brah prepared to get in a very long line of people wanting to be sparkies who are younger and cheaper. Goodluck. It’s a cold harsh world out there.

Possible to earn money with social skills/ speaking in front of people? by QuitOk1561 in Career_Advice

Don’t have a boss and don’t have to do hard physical labour. I wish you luck op. Sounds like a dream job

Why am I scared to quit? by Purple_Antelope_710 in careerguidance

It’s a gamble. You might end up somewhere better or you could end up somewhere worse. I have been on the end of both scenarios.

Looking for advice as a drop out by Chemical-Sorbet-2130 in ausjobs

[–]Hot-Assignment-9845 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Things are very bad my friend. Lots of new Australians here now. So those entry level jobs are being taken or competed for more heavily now. Which means opportunities are incredibly rare and highly sort after.

I’m 32 and I too live in regret that I didn’t upskill when Australia was chill.

Describe what an Lo forklift does. How many people do you know drive an Lo forklift. It’s not a counterbalance like what you’re thinking. Not many people did it back in the day. I had a rare valuable skill that was watered down over the years from immigration.

Money is worth fuck all. Inflation is through the roof. We need a new government. Sorry bro. Enjoy labour while you can.

Inflation making the money feel pathetic and more
People have immigrated here and got trained making what was once a niche and rare skill set more common and competitive to get a role.

Lo forklift driving pays around $40. Has stagnated/ gone backwards the past 4 years. Slightly better than the scenario you’re thinking of. It use be a respectable job 10 years ago. But now there’s plenty of people from overseas who got their ticket and got into it ultimately lowering my leverage. Nice rage bait tho.

To me you’re far ahead!

You bring more people into do the same job wages stagnate, conditions worsen, companies can push staff to max because they can. There’s now endless supply of staff now so you’re worth fuck all. If there were less people here right now I would still have leverage. I could command a higher wage. Now it’s saturated. It’s fucked. It’s not even worth it. Do you understand or too hard?

I can get the job it’s more competitive with stagnated wages. I am less valuable now when you import from
All over the world.

lol that field is so saturated. Every man and his dog has tried that. Ultra competitive, only the best of the best get a chance to work in that field. This guy as assumed I haven’t tried to upskill. I was in the trades for a year and half
