Yeah, interesting.

What state are you in? You're very likely to need your own "work cover" insurance as well - unless that what your potential employer means.

If it's for indemnity, insurance can be expensive - and the more coverage you have the more you pay. Some places have a minimum level of coverage as well.

The insurance they quoted works out to $50 a month, so I'd hope it would cover everything.

Ultimately it's a lot of hassle for what works out to minimim pay, but if it is all above board at least it's lots of hours for the next couple of months, will have to decide over the weekend.

It's loving criminal and stupid how remuneration goes up by percent of your wage. Just give everyone $5k a year raises whether they're in the top bracket or the bottom. It would benefit the bottom paid a lot more and stop the top earners from getting so far ahead.

Also, change the entire economy and concept of inflation while you're at it.

All pay increases should be limited to the price of a slab of VB per fortnight.

No you see it goes up by a percentage because that way everyone gets the same and it's fair.

Of course Palashchuk will say her hands are tied because it's not their decision, it's from the review board. Just like Newman and Co.

There should be a 10 year pay freeze for those positions. No one needs an extra 50k a year

I think I have personal emails from the Labor Left begging me to come back in my spam folder.

After reading all this, they are now deleted and not in spam. What a farce of a party. I hope they get loving owned in the next election because the LNP would absolutely LOVE to paint her as another JULIAR. If they're going to do this a month in then they probably deserve it. We have defeated Campbell....NOW WE BECOME CAMPBELL!

I'm really, really getting loving shirty about the number of Australians I'm seeing making comments to the effect that "Oh boo hoo, convicted drug peddlers getting shot, they knew the risks, who cares."

Imagine knowing that you were going to be shot to death. Imagine being led into a jungle clearing at night and being tied to a post with your hands behind you. Imagine seeing a torch beam turned on and aimed right at your heart to provide a target.

Imagine men in uniforms filing into the clearing and lining up facing you. Imagine them picking up their rifles and aiming these lethal weapons right at you. Imagine hearing a harsh command shouted. Something terrible happens to your body and if you're lucky you'll die before you understand what it actually was. Your brain processes sounds slightly behind other sensation so your last conscious impression is of stunningly loud noise, frightening and painful in your ears.

If you're lucky you'll be dead straight away. If not, you might remain slightly conscious while they check, and then you hear the captain shout another order, and then a man in a uniform stands over you and aims his rifle down at you from point blank range.

Imagine that.

Who cares.

There are plenty of workers being asked to take a less-than-inflation pay increase, or nothing at all. Also, when does someone look at MP's total remuneration being well above many other world leaders' packages and say 'how about we just put a freeze on this for a bit?'
