Disagree. This person (and Im taking their account of things) appears to be a productive employee, **not** a political appointee, who is truly baffled by the treatment theyve been subjected to.

If youve ever had a job that you love money becomes secondary. Actually it eventually becomes econdary for everyone Maslow's hierarchy of needs

You cannot control what other people do. The reason why someone may put a roadblock in your path may forever be a mystery. But it sounds like you have alot of time on your hands. Learn something that will improve your tomorrow and move you in the direction of your purpose, forget them, let them breathe in the mold filled office they crave for 10 more years

They are right. The very last thing the Broadway producers will do is build Bahsmian orange economy. They will bring their plays with their performer, possibly hire a black face to front maybe 5 dancers and that will be that. These govt officials have no idea of the talent we have in country. I remember when they gave away the tech industry with the CEB bill, the DPM at the time said we had to because we dont have any programmers. This is more of the same. I bet they told the Broadway producers we dont have any performing talent

Why was this even a thing? Why are we searching so hard for a storm to respond to? We dont want a storm. Thank goodness we havent had one so far. The report should be we dodged a bullet not look how well we handled this. There was nothing to handle. In fact our benchmarks for heavy rains should be did drainage improve. Drainage was terrible.

I was saying it doesnt exist... its not there. Its a very odd press release. Just an announcement of this "betterment" agreement with no indication of what is being "*bettered*" (yes I know thats not a word... so it fits perfectly). It just looks like an effort to give soneone more money

"*That’s not a mandate. That is false. But what Customs said to them is that the system is designed for electronic indices of data. That’s the way the system is designed.*

"*The way it is being utilised now is not in keeping with the design of the system, and we want them to use the system the way it is designed.*

... this is completely backwards. very very very very poor system design. *use it because this what we built.*

in total contradiction to the fundamental principle of software design, systems should be designed for the way people work

"*the rejuvenation project, said to be the brainchild of Prime Minister Phillip Davis*"

Vaughn Miller couldnt come up with an idea of beautifying the ciuntry?

"*Miller also said the project is estimated to cost the government over $1.5m.*"

I hope this isnt another slush fund that sees people who cant even bend properly getting large contracts to do manual labour because I dont see anything different from regular work projected

"*following Mr Miller’s contribution, Free National Movement Leader Michael Pintard asked who will be awarded the contracts and whether the contracts will go through a tender process.*

*In response, Minister Miller said: “Rest assured that whatever guidelines or regulations are in place, we will abide by that.”*

Remember this is the same Vaughn Miller who complained a year ago that he was prevented from giving out contracts to **his** people

Read the article for definition of "betterment" and the result in quality we'd expect to see. Also no indication on what betterment costs. ..

Here is why this is anti innovation. They created an initiative where they clearly have issues with adoption. But they've put a moratorium on anyone else creating better solutions. In an innovative environment someone else would come along, see the problem with what was being offered and produce a better way. Their policy position is, we dont want a better way because it wouldn't be ours, use this or else, and we can force you to use this by eliminating all the alternatives. Its anti innovation. And they got an innovation award for it, I never understood that

lol. I think alot of people are being mesmerized by terms that make you sound smart, "digital transformation", "block chain", "tokens", "cryoto" and "cashless"
