I've lost my job because of the vaccine mandates. I'm looking for other work but almost everywhere in the NT requires vaccination due to government mandates.
I've been looking for work from home jobs across Australia but even most of them require vaccination.
Unemployment payments in Australia are about $350 a week. My rent is $230 a week. I can't survive on unemployment payments and it kills me that I have to even consider it. I have always worked all of my life.
I'm not the only one in this boat. We don't know how much longer we can go on.
I have over $500,000 in my superannuation account yet the government won't let me access it until I've been on unemployment for 6 months. I'll have absolutely nothing left way before then.
Shit is fucked and I'm rapidly running out of options. I'm not the only one.
Oh, and I can't even fucking leave the NT due to vaccine requirements.
A few friends and I are looking at sailing a boat to Mexico and walking up into the USA, seriously, not even kidding. We just don't know what else to do.
Why do you need a "job"? Can't you start your own business? That's what I did back in the early nineties when I was laid off. I made a shit load of money working for myself and retired to a Greek island. What are your skills/interests?
It was a lot easier in the 90's. And how can someone in Australia today start a new business with no money? People are looking to survive, period. Let's think before making a comment.
I live in the NT.
Shit is completely fucked here.
