Actually, I work for the government
Our head guy isn’t having people tested.
In “gubbermint,” it is possible to apply every green, egalitarian feminist, gay and minority special interest agenda. It is possible to have all the buildings energy star compliant, supporting small minority owned businesses, and buy fleets of cars that are green like the Volt (your department/agency might not have, but others have). It is possible to hire an army of people watching parking lots all day, just go to DC.
Because in government, success and failure is merely tied to what your rating official and senior rater decide to rate you on, you can be damn near a corpse and get a high rating, but if they don’t like you, it’s not like the civilian sector where you have a value based on what you earn the company. Decisions are made using distributed responsibility (committee). There is a veil of secrecy on a lot of things. And of course in a massive faceless bureaucracy you can’t even figure out who it was that made a decision (anonymity). Then, depending on where you’re at, folks are constantly rotating in and out, and at the senior most levels the leadership is mostly political hacks that often don’t even know the ins and outs of the organization they are tasked to lead, but they are very loyal to their political master.
And then there are those that think running your health care, education, transportation, etc. is best done by the professionals in government. Yeah-
Actually I sneezed because I think I have a cold, and now I’m at home 10 days quarantined.
“Gubbermint” Idiocracy.
