FrogDad is my hubby of 47+ years.
I, too, have seen the promote-them-to-get-them-the-hell-out-of-here mentality.
I also believe it’s true that 20% of the people do 80% of the work in government agencies.
Let’s give credit to the 20%. Not ALL civil servants are leeches.
Oops, sorry about that FrogMom!
And, you better believe those 20% deserve all the support and gratitude we can give them. I’ve seen the in action and they carry the load. Without them absolutely nothing would ever get accomplished.
