Well all my many friends and relatives in Australia say works still plentiful where they are, not jst as great, but still far better there than in Blighty. To be fair there are places here where unemployment is low, in these areas it's similar to Oz. |

... Caveat ...
This obviously depends on the sector of work or specialised field you are looking to work in.

How do they know? Are they looking for work in both countries? That's the only way they could possibly say. Having been unemployed for 18 months, I can tell you jobs are fairly thin on the ground. (In my very personal, on the ground, experience of course).

No dramas, just parked 400 metres down the road and walked back, logged on and went outside to visit the local cafe for coffee. Mean while the 2 cars who arrived same time as me are still waiting for the truck to move:blink: |

Which obviously confirms 100% that all Australians are bone idle. Your comment is as valid as the rubbish press in the UK banging on about how all Brits must be bone idle or the Polish wouldn't come in and take their jobs. Complete bull and totally patronising. Imo obviously.
By the way the guys that jumped out were not white |

Across 25 large Australian corporates in 7 different industries I have seen enough to know who is patronising.
