& one more, the last few years bloated agencies like Caltrans has contracted work that was previously performed inhouse by them to 3rd party private contractors, why is this you ask ? It's because they (caltrans) cannot afford to do it anymore because of cost restraints & budget overuns.. Translation : They can't pay their own workers because they make too much already...

I got an education and worked in an environment where coworkers had been beaten, taken hostage, stabbed, etc on the norm. ill never be able to do certain things again due to injuries. I therefore believe i earned every penny i was paid. Dont forget, state workers pay taxes too.
& for anyone out there thats thinking "well they put their lives on the line &" blaa blaa blaa , save it, they knew what they were getting into as part of the job description, it has risk, like most any other job, they accept it (or should)
Oh I understand that well, & not saying all civil service are lazy or otherwise just saying over the years there's been an economical "unbalance" Meaning tax payer funded wage increases & cost of living increases go on regardless of economical health of the states private sector companies that employ thousands (of tax payers)
They're ALL ****ing crooks & once in office all that matters is what do they have to do to stay there...
& please, remember that my issues are with the managing parties who decide where the $$ goes & how it's spent (regardless of where it was supposed to go) not attacking the individual workers themselves, Hell, even some of the guys I mentioned will say they make too much for what they're required to do...
I worked for the Federal Government most of my adult life from age 17 on between military and civilian work. It is impossible to run anything efficiently with so many different levels of management and so much bureaucracy. I left my Federal job earlier this year. Couldn’t stand the corruption anymore. I miss the benefits but don’t miss the corruption and nonsense. Best move I’ve made.
Okay. That makes sense now. Guess that’s how you met 4wd? Did he wear his wig in there too? Just kidding.
That was for you. I know if anyone posts the word “wig” you’ll be signed on in no time. You’re like Buffalo Bill off Silence of the Lambs. 4wd better watch out or you’ll have him down in a well somewhere. Lol. Just kidding.
