I think there is a 6 year period where you have to put in a unfair dismissal claim. Just put one in and see how you go.

I was working a casual job on the weekend at university, had rent assist from centerlink and study assist payments. I had 32 contact hours per week and about the same amount in study. Without centerlink I wouldn't have been able to survive properly at Uni.

As for the centerlink bums, hasn't the rate of call ins to report cheater increased since the Vic bushfires and recent floods? I think people are taking a better stance on calling out mates for wrong doings. I personally think we have our welfare system pretty well balanced, all you need to do is go see America. If you want a job free life, just have as many kids as you can and feed them fuck all.

If we really wanted to change the system for better use, you should have to submit a drug test every 3 months to acquire centerlink. But this probably invades civil liberties or something...
