Of course you do. It isn't in your best interest to admit that given some training and time, anyone can do your job well.

That union bred lazy workers, and the union Telus employees at that time were on a work to rule campaign - so were being even lazier than usual. When they went on strike, the staff they had take over adjusted fairly quickly and once they cleared up the union created backlog, had little difficulty keeping up with the new calls.

Trust me. I have a couple friends who got used to the kind of money they were making with the massive overtime who were quite disappointed when they were back to their usual 35-40 hour week before the strike ended. It seems CaptainCrunch does too.
