The car park attendant who issues u a carpark slip and u pay him in cash is gone, replaced by a ERT system that cost hundred of thousand of $. The dishwasher in the foodcourt may be gone soon, replaced by a automated dish washing unit... costing hundred of thousand $$. Nowadays u can't even get a regular maintenance guy to getup a high ladder to change a light bulb. He got to go through some working from heights certification, do a risk assessment and u got to get insurance etc etc!! So a regular maintenance job that used to cost $10 now cost $40!!
No wonder costs r skyrocketing and we r getting creamed by the competition...namely our neighbours!!
