I use a great little program called IEspell ( http://www.iespell.com/ ) that can spell check and correct my posts right in Internet Explorer. If you are as bad in spelling as I am then go get it, its free.
When I use IEspell, when a word is not in its dictionary it gives me some alternatives. Here the first alternative of some of the nick names here:
Insan = Insane
MicAtCyp = Mistype
Bananiot = Banknote (ok, nobody is surprised with this one. We knew all along )
Since I am talking of great little programs here is another one:

Why is this in the Cyprus problem forum? Because of the following:

Hey re Piratis, the first Pirates in Cyprus were the Sezluk Turks remember?  |

| You woudn't need the Oxford Presise Dictionary to tell you that bananiot is the citizen of the banana republic, as per Cyprus - Cypriot. The only difference between me and Insan, lets say, is that I am a GC bananiot. So, I suggest Piratis throws his new little toy in the dustbin, besides, I was born a proletariat and it seems I will die one, one account of my bank statements always being negative. |

That's very strange for a high school professor who at your age might be getting 2,500 Cyprus Pounds a month, 4 months every year holidays, all at the expense of the real proletariat Cypriots who work their ass every day to make a living, and on top of it feed all of you the Government drones with your not so contemptible salaries. Do you know how many jobs an average Greek Cypriot has to make to get the salary you are getting?
As far as the pentions go and the bonus gift after you retire... Whew!! |

Here comes the empathy (the greek meaning of the word). So, its not possible for a teacher to be a proletariat? Interesting! And, all teachers are drones! Typical argument which points out to rotten culture. If you can read this, thank a drone, sorry, teacher.
Thank you, thank you, now I understand you better. Much better! |

Here comes more empathy, that was news on TV just a couple of days ago:
The head of a ward at the Limassol Hospital.
Her salary:3,500 Cyprus Pounds.
Overtime earnings:10,000 pounds.
ALL THESE IN ONE MONTH MAN!
And you call that empathy?? Where are all those money coming from, the sky?
Or from the pockets of everyday average people.
I got pissed off now.
Damn you all, have a goodnight |

I agree that the system in the government is not very good and several government employees take advantage of it. On the other hand is not good to generalize. There are many people in the government that do their job very correctly and such generalizations would be unfair for them.
Personally I don't see why a person with a university level education should not receive 2.500 pounds as a salary at the end of his/her career.
The problems start when the system can not deal with people that can not perform at the level that is expected from them, or when people take advantage of some parameters of the system. The system should be modernized and become a lot more flexible to be able to deal with such things. |
