Correct but don't forget to apply salary increases / R36m staff parties due to the fantastic performance reviews they must be using.

F*** you Eskum, tell my municipality to stop wasting electricity, for 4 days now my street lights have been burning 24 hours straight, It does not help that they don't answer their phones either. This nonsense of us the consumer "must" save electricity is BS, I pay for what I use and therefore save as much as I can already, me switching off my lights isn't going to save your sh**y grid, stop stealing the money we pay and start fixing the grid you as*h**es.
