Three Legs

If you are coming in the near future, words of advice ...

a) Make sure you have secure work lined up

or

b) Be 'wedged up' ...

or

c) Better still, both.



Job applications are becoming a circus.

Weebie

Or even better still...don't even come this place is a boring dump!

daddyofthree

Can you elaborate on 'job applications becoming a circus'....? Any personal experiences here? Just curious, keping close eye on employment myself.

Catch

a bit like a battalion of squadies visiting the local brothel,and only 2 girls working that nite, ie everyone's trying to get in where they can .Pardon the pun

La Vida loca

Yeah follow this advice.... that ways less pommie cashed up migrants driving the house market.....

northernlights

Thought the Pommies weren't as cashed up thesedays? Exchange rate less favourable, UK house prices falls

northernlights

Hey Catch, are you speaking for experience here?

Catch

oooohh yyyes "i always get in first"

Yeah after all in a recession why would you want lots of people with money coming over to spend it all in shops and local buisneses to keep them open and running.

Perhaps you just want only aussies in perth, well you would lose like 90% of the population, good luck running the city then

I agree, it gets right on my tits hearing whingers going on about people with money....is it me or do they sound jealous?

La Vida loca

Dont be so paranoid, I am entitled to my opionion, Not jealous of anyone with money, wouldnt make me happy if I had it....still whinge at not having another million or this house isnt big enough.....

This place is full, we dont need more migrants turning up atthe moment with unemployment expected to reach 12%, you will have to wait until the recession is over or bring that wedge of cash to pour into the economy, to ensure my wifes kids and dole cheques continue to be paid.

Doesnt make any difference who is in Perth race wise, dont get make me out to elitist, long as you earnt the right to be here, and contribute its all good and everyone is singing to the same tune.

La Vida loca

Hope they are big ones, Id be worrying about things if I was you, apart from me going on,,, oh sorry.... whingeing about people with money......

I would say a large percentage (not all) of people with money have made their money from property increases over the last decade. Borrow money from the bank, buy house, wait for increase, borrow more money, buy investment property, wait for increase, borrow more, buy another investment property. Easy money, eh? Just sit back and get rich without lifting a finger without exactly being innovative or productive.

I think that's where the jealously lies, not from the folk who have made money from being business savvy, saving hard, etc.
