    Default No job's In Oz

    AIN'TIT THE TRUTH!!?'

    Joe Smith started the day early having set his alarm clock(MADE IN JAPAN ) for 6am . While his coffeepot(MADE IN CHINA )was perking, he shaved with his electric razor(MADE IN HONG KONG).He put on a dress shirt (MADE IN SRI LANKA), designer jeans(MADE IN SINGAPORE )and tennis shoes(MADE IN KOREA ).After cooking his breakfast in his new electric skillet(MADE ININDIA )he sat down with his calculator(MADE IN MEXICO ) to see how much he could spend today. After setting his watch (MADE INTAIWAN)to the radio(MADE IN INDIA )he got in his car (MADE IN GERMANY )filled it with Petrol fromSaudi Arabiaand continued his search for a good payingAustralian JOBAt the end of yet another discouraging and fruitless day checking his Computer (MADE IN MALAYSIA), Joe decide to relax for a while. He put on his sandals(MADE IN BRAZIL)poured himself a glass of wine (MADE IN FRANCE.! )and turned on his TV(MADE IN INDONESIA ),and then wondered why he can't find a good paying job in... Australia.....

    He just needed to shop in a different place. If we bought Australian products more Australian products would be made.

    Actually I'm sure the wine would have been Australian.

    pay the local growers what the the imported product
    costs the company.
