COLA

Postby johbee » Tue Sep 01, 2009 6:08 pm

Got paid today and see that my salary's about 75 Euros less than it was. Seems that the communist government have decided that COLA should be adjusted down. Hmmmm. Let's see: petrol prices, milk, bread, pork, water, electricity,etc., etc. all seem to have gone up. Since our fine communist president lives in a fantasy world perhaps the price of 7 series BMW's went down and he think that makes the cost of living cheaper in Cyprus. Anyone have any clues on what prices went down? Besides of course those houses and apartments without title deeds that can be claimed at any time by the bank who holds the developers' unpaid mortgages. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U66rzHtW2qQ

LOL, if you're in Limassol you'll know that the motherland is no longer Greece, but Russia. Cyprus communism: A Mercedes for everyone.

So for the first time COLA has gone down, and everyone is complaining!!!! COLA should be a abolished as it causes prices to rise, it doesn't react to them.
