You are correct, that is a certain reality with companies big and small, we were just talking the other day about this with my company which is very big across Australia, Liberty steel & Infrabuild formerly Onesteel.
After 30 years with the company this year, I'm using the last of LSL starting in 4 weeks' time and will exhaust all my accumulated leave and sickies before I retire as I see bad times for the steel industry.

Cheers.

Not unlike a certain furniture company my father owned. Employee's left with nothing.

If I was working in the building industry I would be making sure I got every hour of time paid up,and would be checking my super every pay day.Every week another building company goes under often leaving employees with nothing.

I hate when you try to buy something on Gumtree and the seller sporadically replies

Trying to buy a Ute tub for a job, seller has no phone contact details listed, so I send a message yesterday morning asking if its available and the price, four hours later I get "yes", so I reply straight away with when can I pick it up, all I get is crickets

So I send him a message last night if he could send me his number so I can call, still crickets, then I get a message with send your number and I will get straight back to you, so instantly I sent my number, crickets again.

Like WTF, do you wanna sell it or not ?, a contact number with the first yes would have had this deal done and dusted.

I will just buy the other one that's listed instead, little further out, but at least I will have the job done by the time this other peanut calls me.
