Same here, it’s county based and friends and family were hired and it’s not a minimum wage job.
Always being fleeced.
Exactly. But the county is “broke” and furloughing other (Important) employees - along with absolutely no raises or cost of living increases for anyone else. It’s clown world.
Yeah the whole social worker/mental health expert police shit is stupid I don’t argue that point but every government agency from local to federal is filled with bloat, redundancy to slow everything down and needs to be downsized. And around here the police have becoming increasingly useless since 2010 and are almost pointless in 2020 except to give people tickets to generate revenue.
Are there really important civil servants? From my time in the military and working around the federal “civil servant” you could get rid of 9 in 10 and still run efficiently if they actually worked like an employee at a private company. When they brought in an “efficiency expert” to see who could be downsized they were given a seminar beforehand telling them to make their job seem more complex then it was or they’d be downsized. How many were let go? 0.
I have a co-worker who’s daughter works for the state, she just lost her free bus/train pass(the horror). I’ve been to her office. It’s all computerized but they still staff like it’s the 1950’s.
They have 7 women standing in the downstairs office, you fill out everything electronically yourself, when you “submit” it goes to the office upstairs, the upstairs office prints a document, then they send it by tube to the 7 bitchy ladies standing around doing nothing downstairs. Then when one finally gets done gossiping she walks over to get the document and bitchly hands it to you.
Two people could run the two offices if it was a private business.
