i have worked for htc and i am not suprised this has happened it was only a matter of time.
i worked on a multi crane site in mddsx for htc and was forced, blackmailed on many ocasion by the ap to do lifts in high winds or block up grab ya gear and f off
also if i was overloading the crane i was told to lower off and head up a couple of metres and have another go at lifting.
i soon noticed the ap and many of the drivers were always
coming into work steaming from the night before
so glad i got out of there asap
htc are a an acciddent waiting to happen
