    DStv limiting concurrent streams from March 2022

    Indeed. Some are more enlightened than others, like everyone at DSTV who was involved with making this decision since they know we’ll merely complain like we always do while continuing to take this kind of treatment.

    Should public holidays be incorporated into a long weekend?

    FlySafair asks for all midweek public holidays to be converted to long weekends

    https://mybroadband.co.za/forum/threads/public-holidays.425224/ Pity I wasn't CEO of FlySAFair when I posted this 9 years ago. Perhaps it gets the traction it deserves. This time.

    Discovery implements mandatory Covid-19 vaccinations for staff

    The contentious issue is an employer treating sick leave as unpaid leave if an employee didn't agree to a company-sponsored flu shot.

    Soweto residents want to pay R150 per month for electricity

    Why was South Africa the most successful? Sounds a lot like children doing as the parents taught them. edit: It seems like some are taking what I’m saying very personally, judging by a post of mine that disappeared.

    That’s funny. But no. Saving grace.

    Why did you delete your original response?

    I did you one better and gave you the exact situation that I’ve observed.

    What do you think about Mandela’s approach during that time?

    Yes, evidently my best isn’t quite good enough for you. Perhaps someone else might explain it better to you. Maybe your kids.

    Why did the ANC do all of that? I was well below the voting age in ‘92 and ‘94. I’ll do my best. Say my father robs your father so that I can have a better life. And by all accounts I do have that better life. And because of my father robbing your father, your father had a much tougher time...

    I see the guilt as easily as you see the entitlement. Do you reckon that those who suffer from the entitlement that you see so easily are aware of their entitlement?
