Moving Day--Postponed...again
Our move to the new taxpayer-funded concentration camp has been postponed yet again. The absolute drop dead, gotta be done date has passed us by and the camp is ready to go, except it has no water, power, sewage, internet, furniture, safety bunkers, and an operational dining facility. Other than that, it's ready to go. I visited the camp yesterday and learned that the local workers that are assembling the existing furniture have completed 2.5 of the 20+ buildings. The unskilled labor force here is an obstacle by itself. The guys mean well, but they are truly unskilled. There are 60 local workers and five international (mostly US and European) workers on this part of the project. The five out produced the 60. It is a common mantra dealing with the labor force: if you want something done twice as fast, you hire twice as many workers. Nice fellows, just slower than slow.
