Job Stories


From Debra:

Location Yeppoon:
It appears to me that it doesn't matter how many people lose their jobs, and how much the interest rates drop, and how many people are prepared to take a lower income to keep their job/s, the Landlords, and the Finance Companies, and the costs of living (food, fuel, elec) all stay the same or rise. With all of the people out of work, Anna is soooo happy about creating 188 jobs ! Wow !! She says, 'the good times WILL come again !' It will be far too late, most people will have lost everything, their homes their cars, their rental accom, everything. I lose my car very soon, and am fighting to keep it, so I can go to work to earn $ to pay for the car + rent, + elec, + phone+ food. I can't pay my rent this week, because I have no income. I am forced to go into my own business of Cleaning with no financial assistance. Why doesn't the government pay for the people's rents,mortgages, and cars, and assist them to get work. The Employment Agencies do NOTHING to help people to even apply for jobs that have a Selection Criteria that has to be addressed with the Application. These are the hardest things to get you into the interview to be able to sell yourself to the Employer.The Employment Agencies know this too, and I believe they don't know HOW to do them themselves. If Anna feels soooo confident that good times WILL come again soon, then pay our rents, and make rules for our car/house payments etc. We've worked all of our lives and now we lose it all and get a bad CRA, so we can't start again.
