I never understood why anyone works at Coles in Sydney when you can work at Coles in Coffs Harbour, or Port Macquarie or Forster, etc etc earning the same money but you only pay 1/5th to 1/10 to live walking distance from the best beaches in the world.

There are mechanics, realestate agents, office jobs, trade jobs etc etc same as Sydney.
I can't. Silly me picked a line of work that doesn't seem to exist outside of capital cities. Not only that but my industry is one that has been affected by 457s so I should be lucky to have a job at all.

BTW I wouldn't call a job at Coles sufficient to save for a deposit and/or pay off a mortgage at today's values. Same for mechanics, real estate agents and office jobs.
