Morning Bonus
I also have been involved in the construction industry for all of my life, as a hands on Company Director of a small family business I remember the days when I could work on site from Monday morning until Friday lunch then do the paperwork Friday afternoon, in the last few years before I closed my business it was a case of paperwork from Monday morning until Friday lunch and then get out to site Friday afternoon (if I was lucky) I have thought for some time that the construction industry ( along with many other industries ) is being stifled with rules, regulations and procedures, there have times when both local Council along with Govt inspectors have come out on site and have displayed a complete lack of understanding as to what they are supposed to be approving. I was fortunate that I closed my business under my terms, today's world makes it hard to be in business, we did produce a quality product ( hate saying that I always thought that was for others to decide ) we never bled the Company dry of funds, we always held enough in reserve for a rainy day, and we never over reached in respect to the work load, I surrounded myself with good people as you are only as good as the people around you. I bought into CWE because I liked the idea that the energy from waves was endless, free, environmentally friendly and could be one day harnessed. Now I believe biggest hurdle for CCE is navigating the political landscape. There are too many people having too much to say, there are too many bodies holding their hand out for a slice of the action. Living in SA many people are disillusioned with the way things have been going there is no clear leadership and millions of $ each year appear to be wasted on stupid decisions. CCE as a business has to navigate all of the above, and more, as well as mastering all the the technical ramifications for each of the elements that they are learning about, is this too big a challenge? I remember someone once asking the question " how does the Government create small business"? The answer........ Create big business and wait!
Enjoy your day
