It’s all about hiring. Every slothful DMV or TSA or post office worker was hired by someone. There’s no reason for bad hires these days. It’s easy to hire excellence. The resume and interview and careful selections should be enough. And it’s doubly important to hire well and carefully when it comes to government jobs since it’s so difficult to fire feds.
Yes but there are hiring quotas in government. The managers are told that, not in blunt words necessarily. We have hiring goals. We want more diversity. More women. More minorities. We put these first before white males.
Which is why you see these more inept, less capable, more folks doing this as a welfare/quota job.
