RE: Water Under The Bridge

in Weekend Experiences • 2 years ago

Oh yes and I also read a recent article about the medical brain drain and it is scary to see how many professionals this country is losing. I think that we are turning into a hub of training staff for the rest of the world. Youth leaving and I don't blame them, it is that or sit at home every day.

Agreed and expected.

Same here as all that we can do my fiend.

    Engineers were first to leave, '87 floods John Ross Bridge was rebuilt in under 90 days, not sure how long bridges will take this round!

    Brain drain has been happening over many years, once people are no longer 'employed' due to BBEEE still young enough to move, they go!

    Strike action along with protests, everything going to courts, who wants to work under these conditions?

      As long as possible to stretch the income. Let's just hope that they use the correct designs and quality materials.

      So true and my friend, one of the eskom expert engineers is living in the USA now.
      Our young people are disappearing by the day and I don't blame them.

      Terrible what is happening right now in the Eastern Cape and I just don't know what the sense is by burning farms down. This country is in big trouble.

        Strikes, burning, theft all spell out a country in stress.

        This morning saw video clip of white guys pulling down street signs erected 20 years ago with name change, signs of anger coming through, never bodes well for anyone.

        Eastern Cape has stripped everything in their wake, jealousy runs rife through many where they prefer to destroy rather than build their own.

        This country has been in trouble since before we were born! History tells the story, I really thought things would change for the better thirty years ago.

          I think that we are living on a volcano that gets angrier every day Lady Joan.
          Sooner or later much worse are going to take place in this country.

          The nations are being inflamed against each other and so many other tricks appear in an effort to keep the attention away from the greed and the inefficiencies.
          A multitude of empty promises as we we sink into the quicksand.

          Same here as surely history should teach us to improve, but then again, history makes a great cover for the shenanigans' that simply continue.
          Denial and blame seems to be the order of the day when the truth surfaces.

            Riots on the roads, burning tyres once again, so tired of people who do nothing but create mayhem!

            People are only now getting water through in Atholone Park, Isipingo Beach. Scottburgh still hoping for this weekend. Many areas inland mud clogged, no roads people battling to get there to assist them.

            A multitude of empty promises as we we sink into the quicksand.

            People need work, not thieving contractors related to people of people and friends of friends! Self-Destruction does not happen when people have pride!

              I think that life as we know it is gone Lady Joan and nothing will work properly again.
              Gatvol is indeed the appropriate word and we are in for many more struggles.
              The latest Zondo report will make your hair raise.
