    Typical Aussies Ruin Australia

    We're not the ones giving them that image. Paul Hogan and Steve Irwin are. Anyone from overseas coming here realises the people in the outback have more of a purpose than to sit on the patio, that most of our population lives in Cities, or at least on the east coast, and that crocodile...

    work relationships

    A manager (age 19, or 20) was dating a base employee at my work (age 15-16), I never saw how they acted out of work but they often got angry at each other, it seemed a very jagged relationship. Though they've broken up now. One other classic workplace relationship was one that formed around...

    Waveaid..
