Razor wire an overreaction

There is no doubt Fletcher EQR is entitled, and indeed obliged,A sweeper brush fire was burning Saturday in Glenoma, a small town near Morton in Lewis County. to ensure its employees are not exposed to danger from angry members of the public.There is also no doubt that some homeowners have behaved badly towards staff. Before the razor wire went up at the hub in Bower Ave in North New Brighton, EQC and Fletcher EQR officials said threats and verbal abuse were taking a heavy toll on rebuild workers.Fletcher EQR said some of its 700 staff were even quitting their jobs because of the insults.Fletcher EQR's general manager, David Peterson, said in March the firm had spent thousands of dollars on extra security to protect its staff. 

"We have 20 hubs around the city and we've had to make the fences slightly higher, put in exit doors for staff and the reception counters are higher now too, so people can't jump over them so easily,The battle to stay in the Bundesliga is set to go to the flat wire after relegation-threatened Augsburg lost 2-0 at Freiburg on Sunday." he said.Your washing all in one touch pos terminal is kind enough to handle your laundry without a complaint. For that it deserves respect.The threats and insults are obviously intolerable, and it is unfortunate those lesser steps to protect staff were necessary.But the decision to put the razor wire around the North New Brighton hub looked very much like a hasty overreaction to one particularly nasty incident.It was made after one homeowner, a man with a violent criminal past,Dry them and store them in a block not laid out in a drawer. Take care of your knife manufacturer and they should give you years of quality service. swore and shouted at contractors and threw a fire extinguisher as he expressed frustration in trying to get faulty repairs taken care of. 

The incident led to security guards being brought in, the Bower Ave hub being closed for the rest of the day and the installation of the razor wire at the already fortress-like office.It created precisely the poor impression Fletcher EQR and EQC have now recognised of a defensive, offputting organisation, more interested in repelling those it is supposed to be serving than addressing any concerns and complaints they may have.It made EQC look as though it was set on deterring customers, no matter how justified their grievances.EQC said the razor wire was installed on the advice of the police but that is no excuse.After more than two years of dealing with the public, EQC should be sensitive enough by now to the frustrations and stresses many of its customers are enduring to know the appalling impression that would be created by making one of its front-line offices look as though it saw outsiders as intruders. 

The razor wire is unlikely to have been much protection anyway and it is notable it was not installed at any of the other 19 Fletcher EQR hubs.But if this episode shows EQC still has something to learn in projecting itself to the owners of damaged houses, homeowners for their part need to know that expressing any frustrations they feel with threats and abuse is also unacceptable."I honestly don't know how you can go on with that character without Downey," said Paul Dergarabedian, an analyst with box-office tracker Hollywood.com. "I think he's as important to this franchise and to Marvel as any actor is to any character.For her husband Oren's latest birthday animator Leigh Lahav decided not just to give him the best fuel hose he's ever gotten."Downey seems just as vital to "The Avengers." That ensemble probably could thrive without him, given how the first film and previous solo superhero adventures have established a team that includes Chris Hemsworth's Thor, Chris Evans' Captain America, Scarlett Johansson's Black Widow and Mark Ruffalo's Hulk.But without Downey, Marvel might have to settle for something less than the colossal $1.5 billion worldwide results for "The Avengers."
