I have worked in one of the towns that has been mentioned in this thread for a good many years and the number of FIFO workers has increased 10 fold in that time....the town is now F$CKED.....
FIFO offers nothing to the local community, they are a burden on infrastructure (partners not working local shops, have to import labour) all the money leaves town and is spent elsewhere.
There is no respect for the town or it's surrounds. Crime has increased, getting assaulted because you got the last "mrs. mac's" in the pie warmer is a joke.
FIFO : Fit In or F^ck Off
