    Its surprising with all those high priced executives paid many hundreds of thousands of dollars and the fact that this company is in the business of construction that they can't build a rigorous development quoting model for various different forms of projects and need to hire outside consultants.
    Yes. Exactly. You would have thought that this would have had to be a core competency for an industry such as this.
    That's why I am completely out. At a modest profit. Phew.

    Your right, this is FBU job. They should be the specialist in quoting projects specially as a lot of the materials will be supplied by FBU themselves.

    And to think that the company has had decades of experience to try and get this right and to then get it so badly wrong on several large projects, WOW... you really do have to wonder about the competency of the executive team don't you ! But wait...there's more !...I see the board have finally now realised they need more directors with construction experience...doh...you think ? lol
    How anyone could say they have confidence in the senior management team and board is totally beyond my comprehension !

    Even the workers are unhappy

    Shareholders should be ashamed their employees can’t even have a decent wage (living) .....but that’s not how capitalism works ....but then I’m told capitalism is dead.

    Go the workers - your capitalised interest in the company is more than the shareholders anyway

    Sounds more like an old-fashioned union v company wage increase "negotiation", to me.

    Downgrades come in threes - looks like it is coming true for FBU?
