The wages for a twenty year old is $16/hr.
The demand is not there for so many. It is better to consolidate than flog a dead horse.

Dear runner
$25 an hour is what pay is with penalties these guys are crying about
otherwise 18-19 an hour

My, my, my, what do we have here? The 'Usual Suspects' singing off the same song sheet. Since the year dot this mob of apologists for the boss have been bellyaching about how the "worker has it too good!". These conservative blowhards would have the rest of society, it never includes themselves, reduced to a begging bowl mentality.
As penalty rates often applies to low paid workers like Shop Assistants and Hospitality these 'shop till they drop' types want it both ways. They want the convenience of their leisure pursuits, shopping, dining, drinking, holidays away etc, etc, all done from the own grossly fat pay packets, whilst they would see those that serve at a subsistence level. If its not penalty rates, its holidays, sick pay etc, etc, all in the view of these blowhards as undeserved worker benefits the boss can ill-afford. If these conservatives had their way the economic clock would be wound back to the 19th century and the conditions for workers that prevailed at that time.

yep Jeff Kennet was right in that most who demand obscene penalties have never employed anyone, usually on the public trough or worse still unionist who preaqch the victim game while filling their pockets on cleaners money. Not surprising.

least we forget..those on 19..bucks
dont get sick DAYS PAID HOLIDAYS LEAVE LOADING ETC
THESE BY BEING CASUAL WORKERS.. are doomed to never own their own homes/doomed to rent forever..IF PEOPLE TOLD THEM THE TRUTH..THEY WOULDNT BE MAKING YOU YOUR XMASS DINNER.

SIMPLY BY TRYING to TAKEAWAY PENALTY RATES IS RAPE
the big money days are the weekend/just for doing most of the work..they deserve double..[im so sick of this reality]..if you dont want to give EVEN A STRAW TO THE DROWNING..HOW SICK ARE YOU?

WE AT THE FEAST..WHINE THAT THE Servant's steal our crumbs
and because they never got to buy a home..they will cost heaps more later/when we subsidize..THEIR PENSIONS BY RENT assistance/till the day they die in the poor house

im liking the new guy..good topics
YOU CAN BET THIS GUY IS A GOOD WORKER..[EVEN IF UNDERPAID..NOW HE WILL GO FAR]..MANAGEMENT MATERIAL..

Yeah Runner, Jeff Kennett would know! There is no bigger snout in the public trough than Kennett's.
