While we're here, why do you call yourselves expats, when back home foreigners are called things like 457s, cheap labour.... Isn't that discrimination?
Well it was Jetstar that came over looking for us to join their ranks because they couldn't find enough staff of their own.
Our culture treats invited guests with respect and all the graciousness that is appropriate.
If they didn't want us there why go to all the trouble of recruiting us and then treating us like the bastard stepchild?
