Welcome to Just Commodores, a site specifically designed for all people who share the same passion as yourself.
Yeah only the top brass are worth paying $100k+ all the other peasants have to squabble in the dirt and rent a falling down house in the bush.
Well, no, the reason cost of living, housing, etc are all increasing is because what should be low paying work is no longer low paying. Years gone by, the working class were proud of being the working class - I should know, it's where my family come from. Through hard work and paying for decent educations, we progress and achieve better things for ourselves and rise up to a better standard of living and lifestyle. There's been no expectation that we're just entitled to it. These days people have a sense of entitlement - because someone else has something they should have it too. It's really quite pathetic.
So you think $130,000 P.A is an acceptable wage for a road worker? Top brass who have done the hard yards and take the risks deserve the rewards, having a white card and a union membership shouldn't qualify for six figure salaries.Yeah only the top brass are worth paying $100k+ all the other peasants have to squabble in the dirt and rent a falling down house in the bush.

When houses in Sydney start at a million bucks maybe it is acceptable - otherwise how do you expect him to buy a house
Also define "road worker"
When houses in Sydney start at a million bucks
I can't afford to live in Sydney so you know what I did? I didn't buy in Sydney. Pretty simple I would think.When houses in Sydney start at a million bucks maybe it is acceptable - otherwise how do you expect him to buy a house - are you saying he's not worthy of buying a home because he's not a silk? Also define "road worker" I knew a bloke who was a highish level foreman and worked on a lot of projects he would have been on about that 2 or 3 years ago, there's no way known the bloke pushing a broom was on that. The plebs in our warehouses aren't on anywhere near that think well under closer to $40k if they are lucky.
People throw out these figures and find outliers and then use that as an excuse to "hire" 457's.
