Tax dollars at work. Uh, how come we're on the hook for this assclowns comments? But hey, with 900,000, everythings gonna be A-Otay. Especially since the offended party(aka 'Buckwheat') was a frickin' GS-15. Srsly? The offender was required to attend diversity training. Then retired. Probably with a hell of lot better pension than I have. Swamp draining begins in 8 days.

Around end of 2012, I worked in a gov’t agency that had a guy in a ‘sister-organization’...who had gone and insulted some lady. I’d met the guy on two or three occasions, and he was the type that could very easily insult just about anyone. He was a GS-14.

The sister-organization went and did a review and concluded that he couldn’t stay. But they couldn’t fire the guy (more than enough rules were broken). So they worked up some deal where they gave him to our group with the intention of getting him to his retirement point (within two years).

I talked to others (government employees as myself) and they’d seen the same thing over the years. No one ever willing to just go the distance and fire people for incompetent behavior or unacceptable practices. It’s one of those dozen-odd things that bothered me about the whole Washington mentality. There needs to be some massive clearing of the whole million-odd employees in DC.

a million? Come on man.

Hillary’s state dept lost 6 BILLION

The defense dept can’t account for a few TRILLION.

Our REAL debt is probably 1/15 of a Quadrillion.

This is small potatoes :)

Wasn't Darla Hood the only female on The Little Rascals? Who could complain about being associated with Darla?

This and similar scams have been going on in the federal workforce for decades. They split the settlements with the accused after the check clears.

The offending boss was Mary K. Kinney, then-executive vice president of Ginnie Mae, which is part of the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD).
