Do you get moneymogged by an Aussie Stop Sign holder? A$120k (US$78k) for 36hr weeks

A new union pay deal in Victoria that would see labourers and junior stop-sign holders working 36-hour weeks earning $120,000 a year has prompted backlash — as well as a heated defence of tradies.

The Herald Sun reported on the weekend that the hard-line Construction, Forestry, Maritime Employees Union (CFMEU) was close to inking a new workplace agreement with the state government that will see its workers given “at least” a 5 per cent pay rise.

Under the three-year agreement, basic labourers and traffic controllers would earn more than $2000 per week plus another $260 a week in travel allowance — equating to 23 per cent more than the average full-time weekly income of $1838.

Those working overtime or more than five days per week would earn much more than the $120,000 a year figure, which is for a basic 36-hour week.

"The average yearly physician or doctor salary (working in a general practice) is a little over $101,000."

So a little less than a human pylon

What's a 36 hour week look like? Is it four 9 hour days?
