Why I am still doing this stupid work for the Census Department when they have procedures that were outdated when FDR was president. I just got a call that I have to meet my group leader each morning at 9.45 for very important business. Can you guess what this important business is? Yup......it's handing in the form D 308. (everything has a number). A simple pay voucher. The fact that nothing is done by computer or electronically means these stupid 2 part forms have to be given in on a daily basis because some other jerk from the government is overloaded with work and can't figure out how to process these if there is a few from the past few days. So what does this mean? Now there is some team leader, or supervisor that will sit around and waste and hour or two daily to receive these pay vouchers from everyone on his or her team. This means that if I am out doing something, somewhere else, I have to stop what I am doing and drive to this location just to drop off my pay voucher for the day prior. Of course I get paid for this time and also get mileage allowance as well. I am doing this census thing to be a good citizen and keep myself a little busier and have a few extra dollars. ( few being the key word ) These are your dollars hard at work.. I didn't think it could get more ridiculous since I wrote my blog on this recently, but it has. God Bless America...............Where are the environmentalists while the governments is wasting these tens of millions of pounds of paper on nonsense ? All one needs to do is look in the truck of my car to see forms 108 , bla bla bla........
Now, getting back to my writers block.................
