Eskom Eish

Lol and people believe this crap , get used to living in the dark like the stone ages or get out of those hell hole

my wife convinced me to take up a job offer in New Zealand late last year. I did not want to leave but in the end realised that it was probably the correct move. I so hoped that CR would pull things back and get the country on the path to recovery but it looks like there is just to much damage. I have still have a business SA which is really battling and we have just today had to lay off 20 staff. This is really sad

All this is way to complicated for me to understand. what i do understand is the damage this doing to small business and the economic prospects of the average south African.

Cant believe we have these issues in SA.

Absolute pathetic to say the least

......been watching the TV load shedding update on SABC......looks like Pravin just touched on a subject that the Gupta's were not the only one taking a chop....he hinted that a very large amount of ESCUM staff had set up preferential vendors to supply them with overpriced parts, products and services.....in other words a "boetie" system.....for those that dont know what this is.....simply a person starts buying from a family member or friend who has set up a company to source product material or services at a huge mark up and the money shared in the "family".....this modus operandi was endemic in most para-statals run by the previous National Party regime but never on the scale that is being uncovered in recent times.....

....and here we are yet again.....my invertor has packed up trying to keep up with the more than 4 consecutive hours daily power cuts.... and have spent a shit load on mobile data in the past week....our neighborhood is only now got many people installing solar and many vendors are short of stock... others are again gouging by increasing pricing on current stocks....

.....so Ramasofa cuts his jaunt short and rushes back.....and nothing changes but is extended....we are truly f@cked....but then so is he.....
