griffonsystems 0 Posted October 7, 2005 thanks rory,, i'm still waiting on my union electrician to return my building prints for a job we bid on - they can move a bit slow but if you want to do any business downtown you have to use them but it is nice when people *** about project cost you just say "yeah those union downtown rates are killer arent they" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rory 0 Posted October 7, 2005 no unions here besides the government and hotel ones .. they are destroying the country here especially since our main industry is Tourism, and the workers dont have to perform anymore so service really sucks, they cant get fired no matter what! If you hear a thank you, or even get noticed when you go inside a store or restaurant, then you are very lucky and you gotta stick with that place. Most Bahamians want unions to be destroyed here, the union leaders are making a fortune. Small businesses rarely survive thanks to the unions. Another example is a hotel had to close down from lack of busines and money after getting destroyed in last lears hurricanes. The staff demanded cash and the government paid out 1.5 million that they had to borrow from the US! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
