You really shouldn't believe everything you read in the press.
Anyway, proper staffing levels are still mandated by safety, regardless of how much/little the individuals earn. My experience of BCN has so far been , when the weather is bad (FOG or CB's) handle with (even more) caution. The difference on this occasion is that the 1st cock-up was courtesy of a duff forecast leaving all & sundry with less fuel than was ideal for the (unforecast) deterioration in the weather. Can happen anywhere, but some places cope better than others.
Very well put, CPS
