A Sydney man has today given The Betoota Advocate his verdict on the industrial action currently taking place in his city.

Furiously exiting the bus after his Bondi Junction train service was cancelled, Harrison Poon-Smith explained to our humble regional newspaper that he just can’t believe the nerve of these train drivers.

“Mate, these blokes want 200k a year for sitting at the front of the train pressing a few buttons,” explained the bloke who is physically unable to explain what he actually does for a living, to his cousins from the bush.

“200k!!!!!!” continued the coke pig who pulled down north of 350 last year for long lunches and financial derivative trading or some shit that actually provides no tangible value to society other than increasing the wealth of himself and his clients.

“That’s just crazy,” said the current affairs consumer deliberately taking the commercial media’s bait on the 200k a year figure, that will come into effect in 4 years time, if agreed to by the government, for the highest earners at trains NSW.

While the current average salary for a driver is 110k and the base for a trainee is 80k including super, media graphs and commentators have chosen to rile people up by the fact that a hundred or so people might get 200k in 4 years time, maybe.

“Like, you should get paid for what value you contribute to society,” continued the man who gets paid 5 times more than a nurse who cleans feces off dementia riddled people like his grandpa, or deals with aggressive mentally ill people let down by our underfunded health care system.

“Sitting in a train pressing buttons, what value does that add?”

“I mean sure each driver takes tens of thousands of people to work every day, but anyone could do that.”

“It’s just ridiculous and a waste of money,” finished the bloke who is going to vote for a party that pisses away half a billion dollars on random car parks to try and win votes.

More to come.
