GREEK CONTRACTOR DOES RUNNER

Postby MACKAM1955 » Sun Mar 29, 2009 1:23 pm

The main contractor building the new holiday village Sunset Bay just as you come down the hill to Banana Bay Coral Bay has returned to Athens leaving most of the workforce out of pocket for thousands of euros in wages, most of them Romanian workers who rely on money to send home to their families. The owners of the complex have been left to finance the finish of the project, the have given a percentage of the wages to the workers to keep them, but a lot have still lost a great deal of money. The owners this week made cut backs by laying off workers, actually the only two British workers who work there ,even though they are desperate to finish for the first batch of tourists in the next month or so ( NICE ONE ).

Hi,
