And The Saga Continues…………..
As Bloggers and citizens alike attempt to read the tea leaves over the out come of the election contest, what consistently jumps out at me is the sad fact that government employees do not think they have to be accurate, or fiscally responsible while carrying out their duties.
And I use the word duties very, very loosely.
One after another has been on the witness stand making the statement that unfortunately these things happen, when referring to their own incompetence and laziness. Why these people are not held to higher standards…say the same ones that a checker at a grocery store is…is beyond comprehension.
We now have Nick Handy on the stand explaining what happened in the war room.
War room?
Oh, come on…….trying to imagine him or Sam “Spineless Sam” Reed in any kind of war room is such an amusing mental picture that at least we can all have a few laughs during this tedious part of new Washington state history.
But as we watch one CYA moment after another coming from our trough feeders state employees…it makes me wonder.
Why is this okay?
When Sam Reed signed the certification papers he said “I am just so sick of this election…”
What he really should be sick of is the incompetence coming from state employees that end up costing us all a lot of money and Dino Rossi the election.
But it’s not just incompetence, and don’t let them fool you for a moment.
Nick Handy stated that he sent an email entitled “Adventures in recounting” and doesn’t this just sum up the attitude coming from Sam Reed and other state employees all along?
It’s all a joke. It’s not serious.
But it is.......
And you know, judging from past history, it isn’t serious for state and county employees. They can screw up right and left and there is no price to pay…for them.
Maybe it’s time that there was…..I’ll bet their job skills would improve immensely.
After all……this isn’t brain surgery and if I hear one more excuse about how many people voted, how big a job this was…I will be sick.
There are much bigger and more important jobs that are done every day by competent and hard working people. And not only are the jobs done accurately, but excuses from them if they were not, would not be acceptable.
So as you watch this election contest take place ask yourself this question.....'If I inserted my doctor’s or even my mechanic’s name in place of any of these public servants….would this level of incompetence and excuse making still be okay with me?'
I think most of you will answer no.
And for those of you who don’t….well, I guess you are probably the people that couldn’t figure out how to fill out your ballot correctly either………….
