Re: Any way- Jake's found a Job
And just to finish on what has been exposed as the excuse for brains of some on here (no doubt Liberal voters educated thru the Murdoch "press"), over my lifetime, who exactly gave us the following:-
The First Global Oil Shock of 1973, spiking inflation and interest rates and causing Global economic carnage.
The Stock Exchange crash of 1974, causing Global economic carnage
The Stock Exchange Crash of 1987, causing Global economic carnage
The Saving & Loans fiasco of the late 1980's/early 1990's, causing loss of asset values and Global economic carnage
The Sub prime lending fiasco of 2007 causing loss of asset values and Global economic carnage
Each of these events impacted in Australia also because Australia in not immune from Global events
These events and outcomes were not caused by those working on construction sites including those who are members of Unions (Unions being people)
True that each of those events impacted the Globe at a time of Labor Administrations in Australia, and, quite frankly, just as well we had Labor Administrations at those times because the alternate policies where government renege on managing the economy thru the economic cycle (as we see now) would have seen an outcome in Australia similar to the outcomes visited on other Nations.
Then there are Company failures such as ABC Learning and HIH (after the purchase of FAI courtesy of a certain Merchant Banker) et al where the failure of these Companies and the impact of those failures are exclusively due to the management of those Companies, not due to workers in those Companies, including Union members.
And those Company failures continue.
Due to inept and criminal management.

Re: Any way- Jake's found a Job
I have known lib supporters who bag unions yet reap the benefits of being in a union. Most Lib supporters would now be underpaid with diminished conditions if not for unions.
Jake has a job and good on him.

Re: Any way- Jake's found a Job
Safety in the workplace & the 8 hour work day brought to you by Unions.
Anyway, back on topic, I for one, am very happy that Jake is working & not just working, but is working in an industry that he has an interest in post his football career.

Should be if you are not in the union you should not get any of those conditions.
No 8 hour day, no minimum wage, no overtime, no weekends, no leave and no sick leave.
Stand up for your principles you non union people and reject all of those commo undertakings.
Bet you wouldn't.

Re: Any way- Jake's found a Job
I don't work an 8 hour day, the minimum wage does not apply to me, I don't receive overtime, and I work on weekends if work needs to be done. I negotiate my own contract including the amount of annual leave I receive. Not sure why I should be rejecting any of the things that I have negotiated for myself in my own contract.Bunk_Moreland wrote:Four weeks annual leave, long service leave and sick leave brought to you by unions.snoopygirl wrote:Safety in the workplace & the 8 hour work day brought to you by Unions.

I do understand that others don't have the power to negotiate individually and for them a union is a nessecity. The unions have done a lot of good for Australian workers throughout history, but that doesn't give them a free pass as far as corruption, coercion, blackmail and standover tactics are concerned. If the minority of union officials who do the wrong thing cleaned up their act, they would receive a lot more support from those not union affiliated.
If at first you don't succeed, sky diving is not for you.

Re: Any way- Jake's found a Job
Gee whiz, I can't believe some of the negativity and downright snobbery in this thread.
Jake Carlisle is trying to get his life on track. Regardless of your thoughts on for whom he works for and unions, it appears he is being very proactive. Good to know he's not a scab worker for anyone, or is being exploited. Cut the guy some slack!

If they are working on Saturday's and Sunday's, not only are they precluded from participating in competitive sport but they are compromised in regards attendance at sporting events - and, even if they are employed at sporting venues they most likely will not be standing around watching the game but serving you instead.
Rain interrupts cricket because it makes the pitch unplayable and makes the bowler run ups unsafe for bowlers and makes the outfield unsafe for fielders.
