HH already cancelling jobs

accymel · 15-03-2007, 13:45

Just got a letter pushed thro the door this morning about this area's kitchen/bathrooms being cancelled [for me a 2nd time] 'due to technical issues currently beign resolved we have instructed works to cease on any properties on the estate until further notice. Unfortunately this means that the start dates for your improvement works have had to be cancelled until another date is programmed. This desicion was made in order to keep distress & disruption to a minimum'

What the blumming heck does that tosh mean ???? When they cancelled my 1st date of start they said on answer machine 'that it was behind schedule - but dont worry all your choices have been ordered & new start date of works to be done by end of april' - mmmm now that seems to be cancelled now!

SO much for convincing us any different to what we were used to

Wasn't the idea of transferring ownership to allow for extra money to be released by the government ? Pee ups in breweries spring to mind

Mel you aint gonna try and convince us things would have changed are you?

The only change was in name and thats it. Everything else is the same as it was apart from the council running it. You can have a bacon and egg pie made with rotten eggs ang bacon thats gone off but because its presented in a dish surounded by perfume and roses dosnt change the fact that its content is rotten.

Perhaps the Observer might also pick up on this and ask what the problems are, and more importantly WHY ?

Its those high wages they are paying thats causing issue. Due to the lack of skilled and time served artisans those in the job can demand and get what they want.
