99% of the time Australian's get into the workforce through entry level casual jobs, which absolutely ruins their perspective of their own labor rights. If your first experience with working is a job where you can get fired for any reason and cannot reasonably refuse shifts, with no sick pay or personal leave, then you're going to continue through the workforce feeling extremely disposable and subservient to your job.
