yeah for a person working in a newsagency, you fall under the "shop assistants" award of pay.

under sixteen - about $7.90/hour mon-fri, $8.90 saturday, $11.45 sundays
sixteen - $9.80/hour mon-fri, $11.50 saturday, $14.45 sundays
seveteen - $11.92 mon-fri, $12.49 saturday, $17.85 sundays.

but thats just a rough guide. some people pay their staff more than the award, whilst others just pay what the award is.

i worked at supanews as my first job, applied online and got it - really liked it - good managers, good location and nice people. goood luck ! :)
