Why do you think the workers are owed jobs? People are made redundant all the time, different companies, different professions, here and elsewhere.

For whom do you think companies are run, for whose benefit, even utilities?

Word is that that those people near saint David’s battery got their power back on today because a unionized BELCO worker called in his coworkers to get it done. So much for work to rule. So they not getting paid or getting paid regular hours?

That doesn’t sound like the best interest of anyone. This union are a bunch of jokers and I can’t believe the clowns who they voted in as the executive. Not one union job has been affected. WOW!

Perhaps they should ask for a few directors to step down or retire. What’s good for the staff should go the same to the directors. Or better yet let the directors pay their board members funds to the ousted staff. Too much of this going on in the workplaces. Where do they think people are to find jobs???

This has been happening in a lot of Bermuda’s companies why do we make special time in the day to worry about BELCO?
