I understood from both the press release and what has been issued to news outlets is that only Students who park on campus will be paying a parking fee. I would think that means every car that is parked on campus will have a decal or a sticker and those without will be towed.

The public became suspicious the minute you announced that you were changing the way murder was recorded in this country! Once you begin that "change" it should be mirrored for every preceding year, which it hasn't. So saying that crime is down means nothing to us. All you're saying is that according to your new statistical method crime is down compared to the old statistical method. Who the hell are the statisticians that produce these statistics? They need to be ashamed of themselves!

It's funny, very few of the complaints by journalists were due to the state of the stadium, yet the Minister decides to play the blame game. SMT!

I fully agree, it's outrageous that they're being paid so much in overtime alone. I just have a few doubts. Why have we only seen a document detailing overtime for a year? If these figures were so outrageous for lets say 5-10 years, I'd be 100% behind Miller even with his inhumane attitude!

But...I feel like these people haven't been getting this amount in overtime for 5 or 10 years. I feel their overtime is somewhat isolated with a major contributory factor being the road works project and other infrastructural projects that took place over the last 5 years.

Salaries and overtime pay are only a drop in the bucket of BEC's expenses. They certainly aren't the reason for our inflated bills either. It's only a distraction from the fact that Mr. Miller has no intention of seeking cleaner and more efficient energy sources. He wants to bully and we let him so he will.

Don't get me wrong, BEC needs some serious cleaning up, but it doesn't need to start with the workers. It needs to start with the Managers who let it get to this point! You can fire the workers or cut their pay and put them on shifts, but those inept and ineffective managers will still sign off on the extra shifts or the overtime.

LOL!!!

I wish we'd get more of the meat of the story. Why was this lady fired? If the contract said terminated employees must be given a reason then who is Mr. Miller to do otherwise? Is he the only person on the board that can make a decision? ughhhh... He needs a PR person badly.

Well, at least they issued a number and notified us that they're having technical difficulties. This really sucks for the people who can't read or who don't read the newspaper :(
