Sick of paying debt retirement charge to Hydro

Dear editor: It does not seem that Hydro One can hire anyone who really wants a job.

I am getting sick of paying for a debt retirement charge, when the way Hydro One operates, they can not spend it fast enough.

I do not believe Tom Parkinson qualifies for a buy-out. Between the governing body and whoever authorizes these ridiculous salaries, these people can do no wrong.

I am sure if Hydro One did a normal job search they would find thousands of qualified people and pay less than 2/3 of what these people get.

It would be nice to know who gives out these gravy jobs and what they receive for doing it. If these people cannot get it right, why do they not hire an outside agency that can find the right person at a reasonable salary?

Jim Phillips, Minesing
