Default Re: Griffin Coal Workers 43% Pay Cut

I only have one thing to say. As someone who earns under 40k, when I see miners (who I acknowledge work long shifts) get 2/1 or as my mums partner 1/1 rotations, get over 100k per year complain about being offered less pay. I have no sympathy at all, try working 9-5 for 1/4 what your paid, then you might appreciate the money you get and acknowledge that your paid well and stop complaining. So you can only fly to bali 3 times instead of 6, you have to hold off on modifying your car or upgrading to a new one again.

I manage a business ffs and I get **** all for doing so, but I don't complain, I do my job, get my pay and look after the family (yes my partner also works).

If it is that bad, come and do my job at my pay for a month and I will do yours, then I gurantee you will have an understanding of just how good you have it.
