A hospital employee in Italy has been accused of skipping work on full pay for 15 years, local media report.

The employee was a civil servant, and was assigned to a job in the hospital in 2005. It was at this point he stopped going into work, the police said.

That manager later retired, police added, and his ongoing absence was never noticed by her successor or human resources.

Hopefully, he did another full time job in the meantime.

I wouldn’t mind having 3, 4 or 5 of those jobs.

Could be worse. He could have been paid to waste money and live a life of luxury free of responsibility. Like a Congressman.

There is nothing as incompetent and inefficient as government bureaucracy.

One of those jobs that should be eliminated.

If you can not show up for a week and no one notices your job is not essential.

Hell

The food is British
The cars are French
The police are German
The lovers are Swiss

And the whole thing is run by Italians

Professional affirmative-action government bureaucrats/educrats and their private sector proxies are the same incompetent boobs the world over.

We lived in the DC area in the 1960’s. Stories like this re paid employees not really working seemed to be a common occurrence/story.

Some apparently did nothing but get their paycheck and benefits.

Others tried to do something and return to work, and they were ignored or told to be quiet.
