There are many workers in the system that do not make big $$$$ and have cushy jobs.

    Hope ya have a nice day.

    I did a guesstament a couple of years ago. If I had not declined the purchase requests that I did because some salesman had hoodwinked the buyer just in my little world the taxpayer would have forked out 4-5M for garbage.

    I did my time active and did the sandbox. I still feel that good, bad, right or wrong it is part of my job to get what ya pay for. I hear again and again that "why do you care? It is not your money"

    In the end it is mine as well as everyone else that pays taxes. I will be damned if I just look the other way so some asswipe can get the money and run.

    This from just another govt employee. I do have to apologize a little since I do know there are employees that are far from perfect but it chaps my ass when someone that has never been there in any shape or form lumps everyone together.
    I see you running, tell me what your running from

    Nobody's coming, what ya do that was so wrong.

    I think a lot of the problem is the way that everything is automated and computerized, and MOST of the employees just don't have the control. So often times, when someone tells you "I can't do anything about that," they aren't lying, they really can't do anything. In that case, the solution is to go up the chain until you get the person that can do something, and don't take it out on the person that can't. Many large corporations are becoming just like this. It is very sad.
