Yeah couldn't agree more. Thing is even if you pay reasonably, put people through thousands of dollars worth of courses, CSL etc to be up to scratch to do the work it still takes a special type of person to be out there doing the hard work. People get sick of being out in the hills away from their families, out in the weather, carting around a heavy pack. The staff turnover is high and the monetary input and time (which is money) to get the staff up to scratch is high. To stay afloat nowadays companies have to be risk adverse, sometimes it is easier just to 1080 some of the shite than lose some of your good staff by putting them off.
