Fenwicksgirl,

Im one of those fu%$ing miners, undeserving lowlife pricks we are who are well beneath your highness.

How DARE we get paid a decent wage for working away from our families for two thirds of the year, breathing in all that fine silica/asbestosis air particles and red dust, missing all your kids birthdays, sports carnivals, wedding anniversaries etc etc etc.

Do you get breathtested everyday?

How about drug tested regularly?

And how do you know we dont get tested on the machines?

Do you work 14 days straight 13 hours a day?

Do you think we enjoy all of the above?

I tell you something, if i had a choice between getting paid 95 000+ doing what i do now, and zooming around the skies like you do with a smile on my face ENJOYING my job getting paid 75 000+, i know what i would take.

But you know what, i CHOSE that lifestyle, just like you CHOSE yours.

So stop bitching about how hard you've had it because hey, you've always got the choice to come and join me!

Now enjoy your cocktails in Kowloon tonight while i enjoy my............
