Did they ever exist? Are these like the ghost employees of the NO police department?

Are there 3,000 works left in NO govt?
To: COUNTrecount
OK, are these people who actually work for the city, or those that are just on the payroll?

I was hoping the Mayor Noggin' would be one of those laid off.

Well, that's 3000 likely democrat voters who won't be returning to NO!

Can some one explain to me why he dresses like an idiot?
No offense to those golfers out their but he is the supposed MAYOR of a major city.
This man is truly the most despicable elected official ever.

I;m betting this has at least a little to do with ghost employees. No way the NOPD is the only department that was scamming with ghosts.

It's probably only about 300. The others were likely roll-padders.

Landrieu: "Well, I will. I will answer it. I am not going to level criticism at local and state officials. Mayor Nagin and most mayors in this country have a hard time getting their people to work on a sunny day, let alone getting them out of the city in front of a hurricane. And it's because this administration and administrations before them do not understand the difficulties that mayors . . . face . . . this administration did not believe in mass transit. . . ."
