Can't get used to Captain Drew..... Have to find where Abel & Elinor went.....Have to change the radio station from 89.7 to where they are presenting. They used to make our day. Say 'OUR' because, like myself, there are 83 colleagues.

Finallyyy!!!! Now I'll go back to listening to Bay in the morning. Elinor's lame jokes are finally coming to an end :D hip hip hurray ... The girl is gorgeous and her acting skills are promising as in 'Dellijiet' but spontaneously, I just don't like the lame punch lines.

Finally .... before it was them doing the breakfast show, I listened to the bay breakfast show everyday. After that they joined the show, I switched to the xfm show and now has to switch again to another radio station because I don't know what happened to Arthur Caruana. Any suggestions of a good breakfast show??

Hawn Malta ghandna l-vizzju jew marda illi naqbdu ma xi hadd u jibqa jirrenja dejjem hu .... imbghad meta jispicca jibqa 'emeritus'. Jien m'ghandi xejn kontra Abel u Elinor ... dawn kienu jaghmlu xogholhom sew. Proset u daqshekk imma. Issa billi se jieqfu se taqa' d-dinja? Minn hawn u ftit iehor ikollna prezentaturi ohra filghodu b'idejat godda! Hawn min kiteb li mhux se jsegwi aktar 89.7 ghax mhux ha jibqghu huma .... ghandek kull dritt ... imma ghalhekk hawn Malta qatt ma naraw ucuh godda ghax nibqghu induru ma l-istess nies ... anzi tibda tarahom fi 'plays', programmi u elf haga ohra.
Ejja nghatu cans lil-haddiehor biex forsi l-midja Maltija tibda miexja l-quddiem!!!

I have been listening to Bay from the very early stage when they were broadcasting with different wave settings and have never changed this station especially now with Abel and Elinor and Captain Drew. I will miss them deeply. But on the other issue of Employers extracting all the juice from their personnel I have experienced it first hand and it really hurts. I have been told the same and treated worse after helping a small business establish doing more flexible work than I bargained for and the result was - I had to leave as I was treated badly and even worse, not calculated at all. Now I been working abroad for more than 10 years and most foreign companies respect their employees and understand their needs. When are Maltese employers starting to act the same?

I won't be laughing to myself in the car driving to work! Abel and Elinor put a smile on your face in the morning!

So there you go, you have today's business attitude right in your face 'no one is indispensable' and 'Bay is bigger than any individual' so much for being loyal to a company or a brand. So as every one can realize, it doesn't pay you to be loyal to a particular brand or company.
Being a loyal customer or stick to a particular brand doesn't pay any one because no one is indispensable as Mr.Decesare said himself.
So next time you purchase something, next time you listen to a radio station or next time you go out to entertain yourself don't do it because you have been loyal and have always been the usual customer in the same places but do it because it pays you to do so, do it because it's worthed for you to do so and because you are absolutely confident that it's the best you can get.
Ask for prices, shop around, see what best suits you and change places every so often so you will be really able to compare what and who is best in their respective business. Remember that we are just numbers when it comes to business people!

One even has to take into consideration that after 4 years a show has to change... Change is good, change is healthy and change is exciting...People say alot of things about people in particular employers whom are deemed to be powerful tycoons ...but is int always..." Il Malti DEJJEM igerger!" and as il malti says ": Min imaqdar irid jixtri!"
I feel thisis a positive change for Bay radio and ultimatley the public.

Bay has kept being the best local Radio station because of this...Alot is invested in the people and the Brand...

Both abel and ELinor where nobody's before the Bay Marketing MAchine made them who they were and they were airing form 89.7 fm!

So yes, I agree with Mr Decesare ...Truly no one is irreplacable and indispensible in Business and no one is bigger than the station.

I think people should stop throwing crap at people and Just enjoy the music and all the time and passion Bay puts into it!

@ Miguel Micallef, I have met real people who have switched employers for the 'few ' euros. I'm not judging they did any wrong but simply that N Calleja only presented one possibility of what happened - unless he knows what happened in this case.

Not all employers can increase their employees wages, and not every employer can do so every time a raise is requested. Employees sometimes play off their boss with job offers or pseudo job offers. Employers normally if reluctantly hold their ground. There are many willing to change jobs and take their place.

"Mr DeCesare, however, sounded unperturbed by these changes: "Bay is bigger than any individual. We're a dynamic brand, work very hard and spend a lot of money to create a star and a brand. But ultimately, no one is indispensable - not even myself." Dynamic my foot, I wonder why all the best DJ's working on your radio station are quitting the job and move somewhere else. If you treat the staff @ Bay radio in the same manner how you treat all the other employees, I can only ask why they didn't leave all enmasse.

@Vince DeBono Analyzing what you just said shows how self contradictory it is. How can an employer who 'invested so much' in training an employee then let him/her go because of a few extra euros? Can't the employer match the difference if its 'just a few extra euros'? Usually its much, much more than a few extra euros.

I'd say they will be going to work with the fast growing station VIBE FM. I think its done wonders in the short time its been on air !! Really cool songs all day with great DJs... Prosit Abel & Elinor.... If Decesare doesnt need you, then you dont need him either !

@ N Calleja. I don't know Mr DeCesare, but there are 2 sides to a coin. Some employees squeeze an employer and then move to pastures greener. Many employers complain that they train someone who then leaves them for a few extra euros.

Reading between the lines what Mr. DeCesare said shows that he is not perturbed the least about this latest resignation. This is how some business people treat their employees!!. Like a lemon,squeeze and throw away..and then find another lemon!!
