you know what i hope bmw makes an example of these people.
let them prescribe to south africa and tell them how business gets done in 1st-world countrys.
shape up or shift out is what i say.
im sure there can be plenty of people that are prepared to work for the salaries that are on offer.
but theres something else at work here, lets look at the logic, you forfeit weeks of pay to strike, even if you get your increase it will take you years to catch up the loss of income. IT MAKES NO SENSE.
with all the money bmw lost with lost production and production going down from 350 units to 85 units per day, whats left to give these raises in the first place.
the mind boggles. and to be honest, i do question the average intelligence of those involved.
