Search any job site and see how many jobs there are in western qld, outback WA etc, unfortunately that info is rarely attached to articles on the skills shortage. Also the skills info seems to overlook things such as the housing boom died 3 years ago, so ditto for tradesmen.
As for rude people, there was a media poll yesterday about 90% of the voters agreed australia is a rude and selfish society. Probably best not to put that in one of your first posts tho
people dont really want to hear that.
