The Australian

The Australian (referred to on the show as Mr Jergen) is a syndicate worker who eats lunch everyday with the higher ups. Little is known about him, including the exact nature of his job, other than that he's from Australia, keeps a knife in his boot, and loves Mai Tais.

The Aussie, lovingly nicknamed Oz, is the weirdest of the Toolbox Gang members- he never wears clothing when he doesn't need to, when he does wear clothing he's always in cutoffs and flip flops (although he calls them thongs) and if you give him half a chance he'll spend two hours telling you the weirdest stories you've ever heard, some of which are true and some of which he made up on the spot.
