The job that got me out of retail was a total dud. It was presented as a bookkeeping position but was in fact just data entry. I have never been so bored in my life!
I am not doing any bookkeeping work now, just the furniture shop. So still in retail.

The photos here are all of a gorgeous house in Adelaide. The house prices in Perth are so ridiculous that this same property here would be at the very least, a couple of million. It is $800k in Adelaide.

A lot of Perth people are fed up with how expensive everything is here now. It's not just housing, it is food, utilities - combine that with our weird trading hours and daylight saving issues. I wonder how many residents leave every year?

I am now studying for my Diploma of Accounting which I will hopefully have by mid 2011. Then I will finally be able to get out of retail for good! (until I open my own shop LOL!)
