It sure looks like some mind altering substance is having an effect !

It must be the selective 'smart' type and thankfully it's only effecting one individual.

Were you going to use any of those 20 buses?
If not, then why complain about the country? How did this directly affect you?

Because WE have to buy new buses? Now I have to put in even more frikkin overtime to pay for the damn things.

Transport along the route has been restored with more busses and a letter of apology to those who where affected has been issued.

:eek: Guess what they will be doing next time something annoys them. Torching buses has a proven track record of getting results & new buses.

I realize Purtco is in a tricky situation and I don't really have a better solution...but damn...thats just reinforcing the behaviour.:o

Look, I know inside you also dislike some of the happenings in SA... And the only reason you are standing up for SA is because everyone bitched about you.

And secondly, does it matter if it was MY bus or not? Is this acceptable? No. Is this widespread in this country? Yes

Blah blah.
Global warming is also not acceptable. But is there anything you can or should do about that? I take it not, since you don't complain about it.

Where does that come in? :confused:
My paper is jammed, should I complain to HP? Where is the logic in your ppointles argument?

Btw, yes there are things people can do about global warming and they are being done

My point is, you are complaining about things that:
1) You can do nothing about
2) Doesn't affect you directly

Thus, it is useless to complain. Do you understand that simple logic?
Same goes for all of the rest of SA's problems. Rather work on a solution for yourself. Time much better spent.

LOL, says the man sitting in Hamburg where nothing that happens over here affects you at all.

By your logic, you shouldn't even be active on these forums, maybe try finding Hamburg's MyBB equivalent. :D

PutCo is a private company Am I correct?

If yes, then he is confused

I might be ... is Putco fully privatised? Are they subsidised at all? And how recently were they privatised? (Judging from appearances I'd guess most their stock was bought in the 'old days'.) I thought it was government-run.

Even if the higher costs don't filter through directly to taxes, they DO filter through into the inflation figure.

*Edit* http://www.putco.co.za/003.asp ... looks private, my mistake. But it is still a tiny bit inflationary, and taxpayers will still pay for huge amounts of legal system resources to deal with this.

Can I set up a debit order to take, say, R50/month off your bank account? I assume you won't mind, because it's "Mickey Mouse money, come on man". PM me the bank details and permissions etc., thanks.

Yes I would mind. You think I would spend R50 for nothing, if I could prevent it?

Mate - PUTCO is completely Private, it has always been Private and recieve not one cent from the Government - Commuters are subsidised, Not the company

The Public will not pay anything in damage - The Public/Government never does.

Ownership: 80% Family Owned - 20% Owned by the companies employees - Its our BB-BEE Agreement.
