Two bunches of slackers
I am stunned. Not a single Australian on the dole lost a single dollar for failing to turn up to a job interview without a good excuse:
DOLE recipients too high or drunk to turn up to job interviews will be stripped of a day’s payment under a no-nonsense Turnbull Government plan...
Mr Tudge said in the past financial year no one had suffered a financial penalty for failing to search for a job. He said some had suspensions but all got back pay.
Human Services Minister Alan Tudge seemed last night unable to explain why job agencies are refusing to uphold the rules.
It seems we actually have two bunches of slackers here - the people who won't work, and the public servants and job agencies who won't apply the rules.
