Census 2011

[dave351cid]

i sometimes wonder at the future of this country with the growing lack of foresight and willingness to take any responability in its management.

if you cant do a simple task like filling in a sencus form or vote properly then i pity you crap life.

They forgot a critical question. Can you spell and can you do simple mathematical equations without a calculator ?

Well, not me.

The census chick turned up yesterday to deliver our form. I can’t say that I took a lot of notice about what she was saying, I was too busy staring at her… ahhhh census bags.

I’ll get the missus to fill it out. I’m not going to do it online because if we do, the census chick doesn’t need to come back.

I dont know if you still need to know the answer but Yes you can start the online census then stop and save your progress and come back to it later. Also the bonuses of the ecensus are 1; the collector will not return to your house and 2; the ecensus actually uses information that you enter in previous answered questions and automatically blocks questions that wont apply to you.

For the people whinging, it may be a pain to do but it only happens once every 5 years and if you dont do the census you can be fined $110 for every day after the 9th that you fail to complete the census.

If anyone has questions about the delivery, collection or the completing of the census just ask and I will try answer your questions because I am one of many people who are doing the delivery and collection of the census material.

Do not ask about what the Australian bureau of statistics does after it get all the info. All I do know is that stuff like your name and dob are only used to make sure everyone completes the forms and no other organisation gov or private is able to get your name.

We need to Censor your thoughts about the Census chick

You must have been lucky, we had a Sasquatch deliver ours, and I'm not joking, he looked like Grizzly Adams without the make up. I have a sneaking suspicion that his Census form carry bag could have been doubling as a beer chiller as well

I'm all for you deleting posts, but it does seem a bit ad hoc.

There's quite a bit of discussion of politics on here and other threads, calling people communists, socialists etc... (have a look at the NBN Pricing thread, for example) and they should be closed as well, or deleted according to this:

1. Posts about or containing references to: religion, race, politics, sensitive or controversial subjects.

We don't get to look in every thread, if there are concerns about any posts please use the report button, I am also happy to take PM's with any site issues.

Given that I replied to a post in this thread with a similar answer to Dusty then you should probably nerf my reply as well.

Its conducted by the Beauro of Statistics, a government organisation... Hello..

Just so people are aware...

I am a regional director of a non government youth organisation. We NEED this data in order to tailor appropriate services to certain areas. For example... the area in which I live has a high proportion of low income earners with children of primary and secondary ages. The area also has a moderate amount of very high income earning families with a small percentage of those with school aged children. The area has no youth center and a relitively poor private medical coverage... etc

Point is... no support organisation worth their salt wouldnt do research like this to support a region. You would be a moron if you just went in without knowing what the area requires.

The only mostly reliable souce to obtain this info would be... drum roll please is the beuro of stats... and they use "The Census".

It may or may not be useful directly to you... but I guarentee that people in your area need you and anyone else out there that see this as a "waste of time" to fill it in appropriately. So next time your car is vandelised or you cant get a support service; suck it up Princess because you brought it on yourself.
