Location Transport

Does the Australian Government have any welfare schemes for cruelty?

Basically having a petrol guzzling car not mine at the end of its life refuse to travel any further after not getting an allowance for petrol in remote area, like 14km to nearest reliable public transport after caring for my mother on carers allowance now in nursing home and having no assets after rediculously high interest rates and high unemployment rates after giving up a professional career with a divorce where the ex probably set fire to the apartment I rented after my business failed from going broke makes me wonder if Australia really is the lucky country? Mindful several employers have requested an interview, where trains have run late and psychotic interviewers complained because they couldnt phone me when I had no credit on my prepaid, just wondered if it was worth goin on an international walkabout, in Australia we say if you dont like it here go elsewhere, I do like it but some hard nosed nob appears to muzzle interviews I attend? Weird! Anyhow, how was your week? Gotta be better than mine, but then, heck someone is always worse off than you tell me about your bad luck I actually enjoy listening? Its more expensive to get around unemployed than as a carer and carers are winging they dont get enough yet unemployed get $240/fortnight less and cant share on the rediculously cheap transport like $22 return trip to nursing home where mom is and I have to take care of her home and she wont sell, rediculous! Tell me, folks dont actually nobble job interviews do they? LAMO no of course not! Everywhere I had been employed was on my integrity, I just cant fathom folks google searching names as id checks it doesnt show any great letters to editors wrongly ascribes folks letters near mine and cant get accomodation if I do move some wheely bin was set on fire at my last address and police couldnt be bothered solving the crime? I actually cope well despite this garbage and function my work to high standards still, just need HR staff able to ask correct questions and not know about foreign visa applications most of my class mates at uni went Over Seas, cant blame them!

1. LOL. Well aren't you in a good mood. To tell you the truth I don't think it would be much better going anywhere else then here. It is all the same crap. Good Luck though.
2. Mate, you are in the lucky country. In other countries you would be on the streets by now. Im sorry, I am a hard nosed biartch, but if there is no employment within appropriate travelling distance to you, then you need to move. I have always been one of those people that has always had a job. Warranted, some of them have been complete crap jobs, I mean I had to work as a school cleaner at one stage, and at a fast food joint at another. There are always jobs in some capacity somewhere. Sometimes we just have to lower our standards until we are financial enough to go back to what we really want to do. (Hey, I work graveyard shift 5 days a week at a truck depot, my chosen career is education! We do what we have to do). Now, I mean all this in a tough love sorta way...I would never try to upset my good mate. I hope you find something very very soon and are able to clamber out of that hole your life's circumstances have dug for you.
