At Target for a regular casual it's like $11something. My friend who works at Kmart says it's the same there too so Myer could be the same.

Hasn't changed....$12.1579 (confusing because they always round up the 79 anyway?!)

Sundays $16.2105
Public Holidays $25.something

No it's not.
Target and Kmart are 'discount shops', Myer is more upper class :p

Oh okay my mistake :) That's not really fair that Myer gets paid more. Since Target is above Kmart how come we get paid the same :(

It is fair...because at Myer things have to be kept neater, thus more work.

I think all the wage rates for various stores covered by SDA are available on their site.

More like greater markups allow them to pay more in wages.

It is only empty towards the end of the day, or when they stupidly stay open till midnight.
And in Myer you get self-righteous customers who think that they are the only thing in the world, and believe their every needs should be attended to and you have to 'babysit' them; whereas in Kmart and Target you don't really have to serve so much.

Well do you work at Myer? If so then, are you a first aider, or something else where you'd get paid more?

Not got anything to do with the amount of work at myer vs. kmart. some locations are busier than others so its gonna be the same all round aust.
