We had no issues in Klerksdorp with the last strike. All pump attendants were still working, and even tendered a cheerful smile whilst doing so.

I guess it takes a while for this sort of thing to reach us here and by the time it does, the strike is over :)

in ander lande gooi jy jou eie brandstof in en jy moet orals die kaart-masjien self werk, hulle doen dit nie.

Now I ask you... why should these animals be paid more? They should be arrested and rot in jail.

For what, so tax payers money can pay for their stay in jail?

They don't deserve life. And to call them animals is degrading to lower lifeforms.
