    Where do you live ??????? ......... Traffic SA takes pretty much care of South Africa.

    My staff got to work late once, I made them sit outside in the rain the entire day and I didn't pay them. Now they get to work 2 hours early, have a quick pee, then work until 7. When they are early for work then I do not allow them to sit around outside because they make the place look untidy. They have to clean all the dustbins and sweep the driveway and the engineers get to wash the windows. I don't allow rifraff like technicians near the windows because they might steal them or worse, open them to let in fresh air.
