As a recently retired Australian I'd have to say that super is one of the best things about working here. Not having financial stress in your retirement is fantastic.

Leave loading was a condition won by the Union movement specifically because people who were forced to take Leave during School holidays had to pay significantly more for their holidays because Hotels had higher rates at the school holiday times. We enjoyed explaining this to Americans we met last time we were in Europe. Seeing their faces when we talked about working conditions (Sick Leave), Public Holidays, Superannuation, Maternity Leave, Leave Loading and even the 4 weeks Recreational Leave for ALL, it was delightful. When we got Long Service Leave they thought we must have been lying, it was the equivalent of saying we came from Mars!

I first visited Australia in March 2004 and when renting a car in Sydney my son and I were chatting with the clerk about various things when she mentioned getting "bump up" when on vacation. When she explained what "bump up" was the expression on our faces spoke volumes. She blushed red with embarrassment describing how she got paid more not to be at work. In the US, many people are not not even guaranteed vacation leave and to get paid more when you're not at work??!!! The Us is a "workaholic" place. We would be a lot better off mentally if people had more free time and the money to enjoy it.

New Zealand is "the land of the long white cloud" Australia is "the land of the long weekend".

There was never any empty shelves and out of stock items before the shutdowns...all our businesses were exceptionally fast and efficient in logistics but alas the current situation has affected everything...even stuff from Europe.

I moved to Darwin in 1970 and one of the things we had to do at both primary and high school was litter duty. There was also a "Keep Australia Beautiful" campaign. No idea what it is like now but littering was a big "no no" then and it was drilled into us to pick up our own litter and take it home. Part of this was because it wasn't cost effective to collect rubbish from remote places so it was up to the individuals to do it.

I agree with the job finding bit. I was in Oz from '87-'89. My wife went for 7 job interviews over 2 days and got all 7 of them. Took none of them and got a different one.

Remember England is just about the size of Victoria our smallest mainland state. Distances in Australia are huge. Driving from Melbourne to Cairns is the same distance as London to Moscow!

If something you're after is always out of stock try doing your shopping around 11.00am, that's after they've refilled most of the shelves and before the rush.
