How many computers do you suppose they (we) had to buy..... and how many MONTHS do you suppose they labored while figuring that "budget" out ? I bet it took a team of 16-18 working 9 months of the year.....just to compile those digits. Who knows how many OVERNIGHT MEETINGS at lavish establishments with Continental breakfasts and dinners. Oh my goodness 😊. What a chore! I promise you one thing.....it wasn't done by somebody's wife with her iPhone at the kitchen table during lunch.......like it gets done HERE.
tjm Posted January 6 Posted January 6 Oh there are a lot staff that work in offices in Jeff City that just do office work, it's necessary to keep track of all the Inclusion and Diversity programs. And all the sport fish stockings. Administration is important in any organization. It probably took 8-900 accountants working with ten digit adding machines and another 2-300 auditors. 50 programmers to set up the system and 200 data entry people to key in the results the accountants came up with. But we gots them Walleye and we gots them trout. Next thing you know they'll figure out a way to stock quail in my county. Or better yet ruff grouse.

"Obie looked at the seeing eye dog, and then at the twenty-seven eight-by-ten color glossy pictures with circles and arrows and a paragraph on the back of each one, and looked at the seeing eye dog. And then at the twenty-seven eight-by-ten color glossy pictures with circles and arrows and a paragraph on the back of each one and began to cry, 'cause Obie came to the realization that it was a typical case of American Blind Justice, and there wasn't nothing he could do about it, and the judge wasn't going to look at the twenty-seven eight-by-ten color glossy pictures with the circles and arrows and a paragraph on the back of each one explaining what each one was, to be used as evidence against us. And we was fined $50 and had to pick up the garbage in the snow, but that's not what I came to tell you about." fishinwrench, BilletHead and Johnsfolly 1 2 I can't dance like I used to.

tjm Posted January 7 Posted January 7 It's bugging me now and I haven't even listened to it. Never was much of a Guthrie fan, father or son. But some of their songs won't leave you alone. BilletHead 1

You should be MDC director and get that mess straightened out. Can't be any harder than rebuilding a Mercury can it? tjm 1
Terrierman Posted January 7 Posted January 7 I've known Sara since the 1980's. Worked her way up from nothing. She is an incredibly smart woman.
