I spent some time with a group of overseas visitors the last couple of
days they are from Prague and have been touring Australia for 6
months. They tell me that after staying in Perth for the past eight
weeks they would never come back here again. When I asked them why I
opened Pandora's box, wow at first I thought they were joking. They
said that of all the places they have been to and it seems they have
travelled extensively, they said Perth had the most narrow minded and
bigoted people they also said that they felt there was a lot of
aggressive people here more than Sydney even.
I laughed at the last comment and I rang one of my mates in Sydney to
share the joke with him, much to my surprise he said he agreed Perth
was the most aggressive city? WTF I said you must be joking but he
insisted that he felt there was something wrong here with the way we
think, every man for himself and F** the next guy type thing.

Both my mate from Sydney and the people from Prague said the same
thing almost word for word, that we seem to take delight in tearing
others down like its our local sport or something. My mate from Sydney
lived in Perth for five years and he said that he thought it was a
lovely place but he said he felt people in Perth confuse screwing
someone with getting ahead as if one goes with the other.

Now when I got of the phone man was I pissed off how could anybody get
that idea, after stewing on it overnight what bugs me is maybe they
have a point?
