Indeed they are. I also didn't take the job because these guys seem to think they own you 24/7. I told them I have a small child and family time is not negotiable. Also they wanted to pay me less than I was earning

Lol! Your post was still squarely within working hours, mine was after, yet your best response is that you were working? On what? Your next rant against every employer in the country? Meh. I wanted to go back and show your activity for that day, but you had too many recent posts, that it doesn't show that. Tell me again how much you were working?

I won't be your subject for further personal attack.
But I will say this... enjoy SA while it lasts... I have sweet-jack-all work to do... I come to work every day, fiddling with my thumbs... On occasion I do get busy, but its getting thin on the ground now....

I have tasted what its like to work for overseas companies, and I am therefore justified in saying SA companies suck...

I also feel its unfair to attack me for something someone said that I cannot remember... I am sorry I don't have a photographic memory and a DB in my head I can remember instantly all that was said here... I have other interests, outside of MyBroadband.co.za

Applying for tourist passports: Persons 16 years and older

These passports are issued to SA citizens who are 16 years and older.
The passports are valid for 10 years from the date of issue, and are not renewable. When your South African passport expires you have to complete a new application to get a new passport.


To apply for the passport, you must submit the following documents:

  • A duly completed passport application Form DHA-73
  • Your original identity document and a copy, or a birth certificate and copy thereof if under 16
  • If under 18 years, parental consent for issuing of the passport. Please see Tourist passports: persons under 16 for the requirements
  • A completed determination of citizenship Form DHA-529 when applying from abroad
  • Present any existing valid tourist passport or if you have lost your passport or it has been stolen and you are applying for a new passport, you must provide a loss of passport report (DHA-335 ) and confirmation that you reported the loss to the police
  • Two colour photographs that comply with the Passport and ID Photograph Specifications
  • Pay the prescribed fee for the passport

I've come to the conclusion that you are bi-polar.

Funny my experience with international companies has been lacklustre, I've worked for a few SA companies that have had awesome environments. Perhaps you just attract the bad companies because of your attitude and delusions of grandeur?

Just so no one thinks I forgot or didn't have a response. I chose to ignore his comments and not respond. Cannot have a conversation where the other guy changes his mind every 5 minutes - there is a reason I'm not a politician :)
