Read this. Absolutely true. I wish people knew this as much as the author does. What always aggrivated me was the managers who would work from home and then look at you like you're crazy when you say you wanted to do the same. "Why for thee and not for me?" I always wanted to ask. One of my former idiot managers cancelled my flex time schedule because he didn't think I was spending enough time in the office. I tried to explain that I was spending exactly the same number of hours in the office, just different hours. He didn't agree. Facts didn't matter, face time did. Glad I don't work for him anymore.
Feds eye Stevens' home remodeling project
Feds eye Stevens' home remodeling project . Thank God they're going after this guy. He's been so brazen with his porkbarreling and the whiff of corruption around him has been ripe enough to smell from here. I'd rather have a 100% democrat run Congress if they were ethical. Term limits. One term for Senate, two for the House, one for the President. Some fear that would increase the power of lobbyists. Simple, ban any former members from being lobbyists and limit lobbyists to terms as well. (I'm not sure how that would work. Just a thought.) The other answer is transparency. No earmarks without a floor vote. No spending of any kind without a floor vote. All spending committees (intelligence aside) open to the public and recorded and available on the web.
