Unfair load shedding schedule
What we are all hoping for is consistency in this endeavour - so that we can plan our work lives. I work from home and am annoyed that you are obeying the schedule which you published as at 7.April.2015.I live on the Bluff - and according to your chart - we are in Zone 4. In addition, it was widely published that you were utilising Stage 2. This meant that we were only meant to have load shedding from 06h00-08h00. Besides the lights going off only at 06h15, they remained so until 09h00. In addition, the lights were switched off at 20h00-22h00. In fact they came back on at 22h10. This is contrary to the promises made when the new schedule was published. Look at zone 13 - as an example of my complaint . With the current spate of load shedding - mostly Phase 2 from 16h00-24h00 - this zone has been unaffected by any of your shut downs. This indeed causes me to think that this not an isolated incident. It appears that some areas are being \punished"in your schedule - there are a number of sites like this - where high powered ANC folk live that there are no load shedding during peak evening load shedding (look at zone 20)"""
