Day 15: 唔講真係唔知,剪羊毛工人係高薪職業,剪每隻羊收 $4.2,一般每日八個鐘剪到250隻,熟手甚至一日剪到350隻,一個星期可以做足五日,今日參觀個牧場主人話,佢預約啲剪羊毛工人要等到12月至有期。計落一星期做五日,一年做40個星期,就算每日剪250隻羊,年薪都$210K,好過做好多專業啦! 不過剪羊毛需要大量體力勞動,賺嘅都係辛苦錢。今日去參觀個牧埸,面積 32,000 公頃,牧場主人話佢只用咗 12000公頃,養咗7000隻羊 (Merino sheep),佢用架開蓬巴士載我地四圍去兜兜,個牧場真係好大,見到野生動物仲多過啲羊,好多袋鼠、鴯鶓、仲有野駱駝、連野驢仔都有。牧場主人話啲羊隻飲水水池分佈好散,佢已經改用無人機去做例行檢查,估唔到啲土澳都識善用科技。
Day 15: Not until I visited the farm today, I didn't know the sheep shearer is a high-paying job. They earn $4.2 for each sheep sheared, and typically, a shearer can shear 250 sheep a day in 8 hours. Experienced shearers can even shear up to 350 sheep a day. They can work 5 days a week, and the farm owner said he has to wait until December to book sheep shearers. So, if a shearer works 5 days a week for 40 weeks a year, and shear 250 sheep a day, the annual salary is $210K, which is better than many professions! However, shearing sheep requires a lot of physical labour, no easy money. The farm we visited today is 32,000 hectares in size. The farm owner said he only uses 12,000 hectares and has raised 7,000 sheep (Merino sheep). He took us around in a convertible bus, and the place is really big. There are more wild animals than sheep, including many kangaroos, emus, wild camels, and even donkeys. The farm owner said the sheep's drinking water ponds are widely scattered, and he is now using drones for routine inspections. Glad to know the dinki-di aussie is also tech-saavy.
