Australians shouldn't be " too lazy " to do the crappy jobs. You seem to think that's acceptable ?

And you wonder why we have problems ?

Perhaps if people had to do these jobs it might improve their work ethic ?

I love the arrogance of " jobs you would not do for a career ". Is that because Mummy said you didn't have to ?

There are plenty of jobs that have to be done and are careers. We are not talking about flipping burgers at Maccas.

All those hard jobs that not everyone wants to do. Plumbing, slaughtering, nursing, policing to name just a few. Jobs that many simply wouldn't have the stomach to do still have to be done.

Then there's the jobs that require physical effort or working remotely. Farming , mining etc. Once again, not suitable for everyone but are indeed necessary careers.

Casualisation for consultants. Pffttt.
Sounds like typical management thinking. Consultants are a very small part of the workforce. The vast majority are in the service industries. Dirty hard unpleasant work. Not sitting in an office looking out the window.

Funny how you talk about remuneration. Consultants get a very high hourly rate. So much so that they can pick and choose when to work.

Completely the opposite to the average service worker who struggles to pay the weekly bills.
