One of them must have come good again.

This is the result of doing a job you are clueless about

All should be locked up, from the engineers   all the way down to the labourers

Yeah sure, the labourers...   Why them ?  So funny for you ?

so the 2 who are still trapped under the debris are still alive? or are they the same 2 who have been confirmed dead, even though they are still not found under the rubble? The 4 mentioned in the article as "initially trapped" - are they the same 4? Or the random other numbers we heard in yesterday's reports of the incident?

 

who writes this stuff?

No one seems to give a toss what they do

You ever see some work, their safety and the safety of all around not thought about

wow, people really do die every single day of bad luck, makes you think....live your life to the full, you never know when it could end..
