On the subject of wages the company I work for now is looking at a wage cut, which is a first for them so things not looking that good.
Latest stats have 1500+ people arriving in WA each week. Seems the WA economy is keeping the economy afloat. Live in WA and play in NZ is utopiaQuote:

The Jobs in my profession seem to be few and far between, I,m on the skills shortlist, for Australia and NZ but cant find the work, there is one job on a Shrimp boat in NZ, but didn't see myself working for "Bubba Gump Shrimp" wouldn't mind the ferries in Sydney AUS, but I guess they are like what we used to call ferry jobs here, "Dead mans Shoes"Quote:
