The point i am trying to get across is the difference in the rates of pay between the two states.
It has got nothing to do with a pay comparision between plumbers and teachers or police.
How many times have we been told when there is a pay dispute "the teachers in NSW get paid better".
If you are trying to discredit my arguement tell me what the pay difference is between the two states in regaurds to teachers.
I am willing to bet it isnt over 40%
Not that it matters but your figures are wrong in reguards to my wages.
The rate is culculatated on a 36 hour week.
IMO the unions would have a very good case for a pay rise in NSW based on what some plumbers get paid in VIC.
Hope this clears up any confusion.
Cheers
