rock and roll

A good day on the Rock. I walked past a WASA pump installation this afternoon when all of a sudden a hose busted with water flying all over the place. I immediately called WASA and within 20 minutes a technician drove up to the installation and attended to the situation. Of course we can do it, and do it every time. There is no reason why we have to be inefficient. Whether it is water, electricity customs or immigration, licensing, pothole patching, why the drama every time? Why not simply get the job done?
I heard of stories of the Immigration and Customs in Grenada offering refreshments to persons arriving by sea last weekend, apologising for any delay in the processing of the arriving vessel.
This is called respect. It has nothing to do with 'oh immigration officers should not smile, they should not be welcoming in case you are trying to enter illegally'. That is old, old, old and has nothing to do with the 21st century. We hear of the horror stories of a visitor's first impression of the Rock with Immigration and Customs being the culprits. The President of the PSA, a budding politician, will soon realise that if by fluke he ever became the head of anything political, like the THA, that all of a sudden he is now in charge and guess what, responsible. Making excuses and stupid statements will now be something of the past. I have had first hand knowledge of his whining and complete disregard for the general public for the sole purpose of looking good in the eyes of the PSA membership. He is a charlatan. Now where did that come from?

I have no idea what is going to happen with the appointment of a Commissioner of Police. The embarrassment, the complete mismanagement of a process, the most irresponsible actions taken by the Chairman of the PSA who is given the authority to make a decision and what? The 'what' is the issue, the 'what' is the problem. So, with the absolute highest ever murder rate in the history of the Rock and everybody goes home as though nothing ever happened. When are we going to take a stand, $%^&*the party, #$%^&*the politics, $%^&*the leader, $%^&*the membership card and deal with this horrific situation?
This country is too good a country, the people are good people, the villains are a minuscule percentage of the good people. What in God's name are you afraid of? Is it that the government owes a debt, is it that you will interfere with an illegal economy that is alive and well in your own constituencies, what exactly is the reason for not getting rid of the criminal elements? This will devour you and you will not even know it.

What is going on re crime is crazy. Our Rock is being destroyed by a group of people who have zero interest in the Rock. We need to get rid of them permanently.
If we can get back to some semblance of normalcy with our lives then we can move on.

I started off with a good experience and descended into a negative mode. The problem is that I am defiant, I refuse to give in, I will be part of the change of this Rock!
Let's rock and roll people!

Good night and good luck!
