- perhapes i am wrong...
but how come i see all kinds of far away companies winning tenders over close-by ones? - how can accomadation/travel costs disappear so easily (it seems) ? and yet money for technical work be tight as a badgers @ss ?
and how can this possibly be good for (longterm) lifestyles ?
(just a thought)
