Lazy State Employees: a.k.a. Fat Ladies

There is an old joke in the military about lazy, bureaucratic, paper-filler-outers, known as the "fat ladies."

BTW, biological sex did not matter. There were male "fat ladies" as well.

They just sit around day in and day out shuffling papers trying to look important, like they are doing something.

Here is a true story. I have three upper-management level employees who came to me from the State of California. Why???? That is a long story all onto itself that would require several "Quiet Rage" pre-rantings, and also intense psychotherapy on my part. Here is the gist of state workers: THEY DON'T WORK!

I have one of them coming to my office tomorrow all the way from Concord because he does NOT want direct deposit on his paycheck. See, his meager salary of $140,000 per year (not including benefits) warrants him a three-hour round trip to my office all the way from Contra Costa County to Sonoma County to physically pick up his paycheck as opposed to direct deoposit so he can have it *one* banking day ahead of time.

His life and finances depend on it. He makes $140,000 + and his wife is also a professional. And they can't wait ONE day for direct deposit? And HE is the one who is supposed to be driving this ship? Sorry..... I am the one doing the number crunching (for free I might add) to tell these idiots that 2 + 2 = 4....

Toto, we are not in Kansas anymore.....

Needless to say I received a wage garnishment for the same-above-mentioned-money-mismanging-lazy-state-employee-asswipe for back taxes from this same, overpaid, jerk-off just a month before. AND.... this asswipe will use company time, gas, and resources to come and pick up his check at my office when he really should be doing something more productive -- LIKE HIS FUCKIN' JOB!!!!!!!!

I hate to sound like a broken record, but the government bloat at the top is real. That is where the real budget crimes are happening. Don't let them tell that the state is broke and they don't have any money.

Bullshit. California should have plenty of money. They are just too busy sucking it up for themselves in their mis-managed cluster fucks.
