Rats abandoning sinking ship??

[begood]

It's been suggested that CWB staff are nervous (or worse) about their job security. If I were in their place and my boss said the CWB organization can't survive; then I'd certainly have a contingency plan; or at least not be the last person left looking for another job.
Ordinarily I'd have a lot more sympathy.

[silverback]

Do you think they will stop for half a second and wonder how many farm kids have been told over the years that there just is not a great future in farming?

That they should find a different career because even though your american cousins get more for their wheat, we have to take what the liberals and the cwb say we can have for it? If only we could change the government someday son.

Probably not.

The head hunters were called the same day that Oberg said the cwb can't survive without the single desk.

The pink slips might as well go out now.

The civil service will absorb most of the
employees. Some will retire. Some will take
education packages. Some will join the grain
market.

Life will go on.

i dont suppose you could get any of them to work on the farm. Ha

[wakopa]

arent a lot of them ex farmers /// couldnt run a real business

[sumdumguy]

Wakopa, being an ex-farmer doesn't mean you
can't do the best job serving farmers. Many
programs hire these people deliberately because
these people know about the people they serve.

That experience is valuable in many occupations,
whether it be sales, agrology, or bureaucracy.

Many of the ex-farmers or part-time farmers are
not failures! Some can probably run a business
better than you.

Just for the record, Wakopa runs his business very well. Also tunes up some pretty cool classic cars and trucks.

[wakopa]

sum u could be right, but my experinces with ex- farmers and farmers not running there farms very well hasnt been good. crop ins, sports, religion,business.they have trouble running there own life but they sure can run mine including cwb.year ago when crop problems all over the world the cwb sold for 4 dollars a bushel ,i held back 22000 bu wheat and did quite well selling this last year and couldve done betteroutside cwb . let me make my own mistakes
