“Making matters worse, we have accumulated arrears to a tune of two full months getting to the third, yet it’s the same salary that we have to use for feeding, payment of our rental apartments and our entire families.Barely surviving in this city without earning even any training allowances, sincerely we are left with no option.”
“When we took over and tried to introduce some changes to ensure better performance of the team which was not positively welcomed by some of administrative members because we were breaking their scheme .”
