    commonwealth bank teller job?

    The position you are looking for is Customer Service Representative. If you'd prefer to work on the enquiries desk (higher pay, more training) look for Customer Service Specialist. Contrary to what lots of people have written, the pay is good for entry level customer service (~$22/hr) + you...

    Tax question

    You do a simple tax return, with each income stream declared on the one return. It gets a bit more complicated if you've been charging GST.

    Police are scum and beneath our contempt.

    The police may be the dregs of society (just look at those egos on Police Academy on channel 10) ...but the judiciary is composed of our intellectually elite

    opinion needed

    Here's the thing... 90% of the time there is a violent assault/rape/robbery, the police description is "male of middle eastern appearance" The lebanese seem to be the biggest group of middle eastern migrants so you guys get the blame There's also the fact that a lot of lebanese people don't...

    If you were voted PM how would you reform....

    Why do people emphasise public healthcare so much? Most of the money is spent on a few people who are continually sick, with a chain of recurring problems - i.e. a complete waste of money Many people have never stepped foot in a hospital; I even felt guilty for leeching off the taxpayer when I...

    A massive win for bogans and middle class welfare

    Accounting Work experience

    You're looking at this the wrong way. It's much more likely that you'd be able to get experience doing accounting work for a small business... e.g. I worked in a cafe and after a couple of months started doing bookwork 1 day/week Also, summer internship applications close in July!
