Of late, I find it impossible to follow any CBC Multichoice television programmes due to the constant interruptions attributed to “technical difficulties” or “cable signal problems”. Though never acknowledged, the bane of Barbados, the inability to properly maintain the system is probably the culprit. Proper maintenance in Barbados (think Government buildings such as the Garfield Sobers Gymnasium, roads, QEH equipment, the large number of buses and Sanitation Services trucks off road) is chimeric. I don’t know if this is due to poor technical training or the fact that only about 30% of workers, according to a recent study, have sufficient motivation to properly execute their duties. I do know that all the long talk of Barbados being considered among the ranks of Developed Nations will never come to fruition when basic functions present such a challenge.
In closing I would suggest CBC closely examine the remarkably consistent operation of its Billing Department, which never suffers “technical difficulties” when demanding payment for its “service”.
