Fearless Prophet
Ah State workers I have some expierience with them, I worked for the small small state technical college I first attended when I went back to college, I even worked for them when I continued on for my BA at another college. In my job I dealt with the schools maintenance dept. extensively, state workers and unionized. Needless to say you couldn't get these guys to do anything and they would actually hide from their supervisor so that he couldn't find them to do work, I actually heard a maintenance guy tell another maintenance guy to go hide in the shop until 3:30pm, quitting time, it was like 12 noon at the time.
Another guy who worked for housekeeping also state job and union, worked the overnight shift cleaning, the president of the college walked into a computer lab one night and caught him using the internet. Suspicious, she had the IT director find out how much the internet had been accessed during the time this guy was supposed to be working, and he was the only one in the building at the time, it ended up he had been on a computer using the internet more than 300 hours for the past year during his shifts. Could they fire him? Noooooo he went to the union and they stepped in and all the guy ended up getting was a two week suspension without pay.
