where we disagree is while you may believe it would take a government and private sector person the same time ... I believe the work ethic of a government employee does not come close to that in the private sector. Also is a fact the govenment employees make more than the private sector and government is extremely inefficent with all the layers, red tape and approvals.

I know you were part of the machine ... so I don't expect you to agree. But I know plenty of people that have worked on both sides and they agree and I deal with the government (state and federal) all the time and it is a joke just trying to get someone to answer the phone, call back, etc, along with their fixed work/time schedule, when the rest of us are here early and late to get things done.

Today for example ... we are working in the private sector and I am trying to get a hold of someone in Georgia Dept of Revenue ... nope it is a holiday. I have been leaving voice mails since last Wednesday and still no call back.

Our tax dollars at work ... or should I say not :)
