Morning son. Why the news of more job losses appear to make you happy? Pissy goggles off response would be appreciatedType Rated wrote:mero wrote:its about 20,000 now jobless now btw. SURPRISE!!alfa wrote:I think we can all agree that cepep was the biggest eat a food program around.
It can be restructured and run on less than half the labor force or even put in the hands of private entities
However I reiterate that sending home 10k workers just like that was in poor taste even if legally done and the fact that one contractor is suing means that's there's some grey area.
It should have been implemented over a year at least, letting people know up front what's coming
Wow another 9000 overnight oh noes

Hold upppppppp when public servants wanted to protest and the same happened not a boo from one eye yall are hypocrites wow. Same rules apply as were given to us by the police you need permission fron the top cop to protest no dictatorship here sirone eye wrote:CEPEP workers are blocked from protesting in Woodford Square.
Galloping dictatorship.
Wait wait hold on so the only reason that employees can protest is due to loss wuk by your logic i tryna understand sum here. Help me out. Sir if there is ANY grievance between employees and employer and communication has broke down then protest is allowed thus what you saying not making sense. Tell them to go and seek permission from the top cop to protest just like everybody else cepep workers no differentone eye wrote:Public servants were still employed not so?
Failing to report for duties can be cause for breaking up protests.
How do you know they did not request permission to have a protest?
You are a hypocrite one eye the same ex petrotrin workers who were no longer on the government payroll had to go through the same process so what is really your pointone eye wrote:Hover don't try to spin this.
The government can request to initiate action to break up protests if public servants are not fulfilling their duties.
They still have their right to protest, the government also has the right to maintain order.
CEPEP workers are not on the government's payroll anymore and it is their right to seek answers.
The government has no grounds to block this protest!
Still not making sense because cepep workers were paid for this month until this problem was rectified. Imagine that CEPEP workers don't have sick days nor vacation but the government out of humanity paid them a month pay until this resolves.one eye wrote:If they did not request permission, bad on them.
Maybe you missed who the unions align to now.
Ex Petrotrin workers were not blocked the same way the now Ex CEPEP workers are being blocked.
Petrotrin workers were paid off as compensation and are a highly qualified & skilled workforce, unlike the CEPEP workforce.
Didn't you specify apples to oranges in a previous comment?

Locking Woodford Square is dictatorship?
How would you describe this scene?
Most said they were at the Savannah to protest the “mandatory administration of vaccines”.
Acting Police Commissioner McDonald Jacob however said no permission was granted for the march.
“People can gather in groups of ten, but if it turns into a large gathering and then a march it becomes a problem,” he told the Express after the incident. He explained that this not only violates the current public health protocols but becomes an event where permission is required.
The majority of the crowd then marched around the Savannah shouting their suspicions about the vaccines and at passing motorists telling them to resist the Government’s continued vaccine rollout, which they described as “oppression”.
The Express witnessed the officers approaching small groups, quietly asking them to leave.
“Oh gorm. Allyuh go home, nah,” one officer was heard telling a small group. Some in the crowd said they sympathised with the police.
They gathered on the side near the Paddock and stood there for approximately 15 minutes. In the meantime the other officers stopped asking, instead telling people that they needed to disperse.
Some more members of the crowd got into their cars and left, but still some remained. Some of the officers then began approaching those who appeared to be instigating the crowd to “stand their ground”.
Officers began detaining them.
First there was a shout, followed by a group of about three to four officers quickly overpowering a man and hauling him towards the detention unit.
“The police followed standard operating procedure yesterday,” he said, He said he understood that while people may have opposing views the reason groups needed permission to protest was to ensure that there were no clashes with other groups.
He continued, “But in this state of the pandemic where we have an average of 23 to 30 people dying a day and our hospitals are so overwhelmed why would any sensible person decide that this is the time to have this and without even applying for permission?”
Let’s all agree that CEPEP is just one of the many ways the governments have retained control over the poorest in society.
Cepep could easily have been a few contracts given out to do the same work and managed for a fraction of the cost.
