Crown Corporations (icbc, hydro) buying up Olympic Tickets Quote:
oO |
wtf, way to waste money |
of course. they spend OUR money to send THEIR execs and 'good customers' (meaning, friends and family) to the olympics, and we get screwed into spending OUR money AGAIN to go to the events, while the 2 beside you were sent to the games on YOUR dime. FUCK ICBC and HYDRO and TRANSLINK and the CANADA LINE |
is this really newsworthy? we already know they're crooks..haha |
yes... thank you dad for sticking it out for the last 34 years at ICBC (note: the company has been around for 35. He is one of approx 20 people that have been there that long). I look forward to my free tickets. OHHH... I'll throw my suit on and let the flaming begin. :D |
I think ur dad sold me a write off but removed it from the vehicle claims history... send him to the richmond oval! |
at the end of the day, these corporations are just that: corporations. and guess what. corporations spend money on events and hospitality. that includes sponsorships, tickets, and entertainment for their employees, customers and stakeholders. it's part of doing business. this is just one of those news stories designed to rile up the lowest common denominators-- along with the people who don't really understand how the world works. |

^ especially when the province is in a big enough deficit as it is. |
b/c ICBC are sponsors of the olympics? and the money that they made from the olympic plates most likely had a big part in this? |

Same with Hydro, Translink, ... there's no real alternative, so these are essentially crown corporations and should not be rewarding employees or customers, they should be cutting costs. |
