Once the smoke has cleared...I think a dozen people associated with emergency services, water control and the police...will be gone. Either they weren’t qualified for the job, or had priorities which weren’t related to public safety.
I sure hope so. It’s all about being woke and cute and equity. Never about competence these days. Those people were sacrificed to the volcano of wokeness.
I know a different scenario, but it reminds me of the complete incompetence with the school shooting in Uvalde, TX.
Are you surprised that there were people in county & state government that were not qualified to do their jobs?
This is the case in almost any upper/middle management job in government. I am not talking about the government worker doing the actual work at the lower level. I am speaking about those in upper to middle management.
For example, my younger brother worked for the federal bureau of prisons for his entire career at the Big House in Lewisburg, Pa. He decided to retire at age 54(after 32 year) because there was no possible way to advance any further. That was because the Assistant Warden was a Black Woman. She was there because of her sex and race. She was terribly unqualified for her job. She was also my brother’s immediate superior.
So, the only way he would ever advance was if he moved to another prison. The woman Assistant Warden was not going anywhere. She was a figurehead. She would never be promoted to Warden. She was too stupid. So, now my brother works part time for a golf course.
This happens all over state, county & federal government.
I hear other examples of it from two friends who are employed by the State of NH.
