Liebherr, crane maker and the biggest manufacturing employer in Kerry, is in deep trouble. Orders have been moved to other Liebherr facilities due to industrial unrest and subsequent financial difficulties. And the Irish chattering classes are fighting over water, paying its CEO a fat salary with bonuses for staff.
When Liebherr came to Kerry the original plan was that they would build their factory in Tralee. But the merchant classes objected so the plant was built in Killarney. And so the finished cranes are transported at great expense and trouble from Killarney to the port at Fenit near Tralee.
A funny little country.

Why can't they float the girders to Fenit?
It's quite likely this comment was posted by a friend of mine. A good chap, a joker too.
