Australia

I received mail today about wanting to advertise on this website so I thought I would revamp and re jazz it accordingly. Not sure if was a scam and what the catch is. But made me think anyhow to revamp it. The economic crisis sure is a problem.Getting a job for non- Australians is an issue even if your from across the ditch.Its fair enough to keep the jobs for Auzzies just like what would happen in alot of other countries in the world. Bad time for travellers, recent graduates and migrants. Work for the Government, nursing and teaching appear to be safer bets. Private sector will be struggling.Ifinding im having a common bond with travellers, new migrants and recent graduates on this issue. Wondering how secure our job is and not getting the hours we would probably like.Companies are cutting down and have more casual contracts even for jobs theat in the past would be normally a permanant full time job.This instability is tough its time to get rid of debt as the economic advisors have said and cut down expenses. Clothes are cheaper these days which makes me happy.

In Australia I have been surprised how Americanized it has become.the rules, quoting of laws everywhere and obviously the well known rejection of letting refugees into the country. Racism obviously exists everywhere but I was surprised how blatant it was up in mid- north Queensland don't bring any curry munchers back here or darkies.people who did int know me what happens if I had friends from that background in which they were referring to? Are we in rural Texas? I just did int expect how redneck it was. . this is the behaviour i would expect from America so Australia feels to have changed from last time i was here. Not dramatically so i suppose its been a gradual change over the last 8 or 9 years.It seems likely then Austalia will become a republic next time there is a referendum .
