remember people, this is the Bahamas, as a Bahamian you don't own jack shit. Tourism does not belong to Bahamians, we are only cheap labour. Cry, whine and complain all you want, If sandals leaves the only fact that will remain is that a major employer is gone period
Ignore the sour grapes, they told us to get over a dive in 2008. Now it's our turn to take their salty tears and season the conch that Shaunae was diving for when she got gold. Congrats and make us proud!
You demand a raise, you get a raise. You demand more days to work, you get more days to work in the busy season. You demand industrial agreements, they refuse. You demand better work environments, they refuse to talk to your union. You protest by obstructing traffic and putting on a scene infant of tourists and inconvenience Bahamians alike. now they yield to your demand after your government fines them for intimidation. They close the hotel and you lose your job. Now the union cries foul. While it is unfortunate, sometimes we forget we don't own a goddamn thing in tourism and it's not YOUR industry. Bahamians are cheap labour and nothing more. This whole process was completely stupid and avoidable. All parties hold blame, including the owners and the union. This is the dark side of Unions, especially when they get greedy and negotiate like complete amateurs, now no-one has a job lol. way to go. I bet the essential line staff and security are super happy about keeping their jobs.
