Classic DLSE taxpayer waste in times of Schwarzenegger's alleged budget crisis

So some ass-donkey decides to authorize this training to Hearing Officers regarding the proper naming of joint employer entities. A supervisor who attended the training laughed at idiot management because the real workers who need it are the Wage Claim Deputies who actually draft the formal complaint (DLSE Form 530), where the correct and legal name must be identified. Not only that, but they had some idiot PowerPoint presentation that no one used on the video conferencing system, so having all these employees commute to the DLSE hub was completely useless...all that gas, all that parking, and all that time getting there...for a forty (40) minute class that no one will really use! Way to go, DLSE! Keep wasting those taxpayer funds, since it's not your money! Fiduciary trust and responsibility-what's that?
The problem is, by the time it gets to the hearing officer, it's such a cluster fcuk that everything's gotta be re-scheduled. Stoopid Regional Manager Abigael Clava was there to take roll call, like some babosa (look up the definition on Google), as that's about the extent of her professional ability in Wage Claim. A confidential source says that Abigael Calva's completely protected by BoFE Assistant Chief Greg Rupp, meaning that Abby gets whatever Abby wants, and that explains that shiny new car that the taxpayers pay for her commute. Anyways, Babosa Calva will be coming to Santa Ana today...not to assist staff, but to sit in some meeting about the safety barrier that still doesn't exist. Why can't we just rent a monkey from a zoo, put the monkey in the chair, and say that the monkey had a meeting about the Santa Ana safety barrier (that's 10 years 5 months overdue)? Really, what's the difference betwen Calva and a monkey? For starters, we could pay the monkey in bananas & obtain similar productivity results.

ACTUALLY I LOVED THE HEARING OFFICER TRAINING IN LOS ANGELES. I HAD A LEISURELY RIDE OF ABOUT ONE AND A HALF HOURS TO LA LISTENING TO KFI 640, THE BILL HANDEL SHOW. WHEN I ARRIVED AT THE BLDG I PURCHASED SOME COFFEE, DANISH AND A NEWSPAPER. AFTER MY LITTLE SNACK AND READING THE NEWSPAPER I SOCIALIZED WITH THE VARIOUS LA STAFF WHO BROUGHT ME UP TO DATE ON HOW SCREWED UP MANAGEMENT IS. I THEN PROCEEDED TO TRAINING WHICH TOOK ABOUT 30 MINUTES. I'M GLAD IT WAS SHORT BECAUSE I WANTED TO GO SHOPPING AT THE GRAND CENTRAL MARKET, THE GOLD MART AND OF COURSE THE GARMENT DISTRICT. ALL THIS SHOPPING MADE ME HUNGRY SO I WENT OVER TO TOMMY'S FOR A DOUBLE DOUBLE CHILI BURGER WITH FRIES. ALL THIS SHOPPING AND EATING TIRED ME OUT SO I DECIDED TO HEAD BACK TO WORK. AS SOON AS I RETURNED TO WORK I REQUESTED EXPENSES OF $14FOR PARKING AND $40 IN MILEAGE BUT I THINK IT WAS WORTH THE EXPENSE SINCE I GOT SOME GREAT BARGAINS AT THE GOLD MART AND THE GARMENT DISTRICT. ALL THIS SHOPPING, EATING AND TRAVEL REALLY TIRED ME OUT SO I WENT HOME EARLY. OH YEAH, THE TRAINING WAS GREAT, ALL 30 MINUTES.

Calling these kinds of meetings are common at DIRt. With all the excess funds DIRt is obtaining from the GAS administration to get rid of the blogger, waste of taxpayer funds is rampant.

Looks like the following employees are thieves robbing millions from the state of California: Vicki Bradshaw, Angela Bradstreet, John Duncan, Vanessa Holton, Steve MGinty, Jim Culbeaux, Christine Baker, Dean Fryer, Jose Millan and John Rea. These individuals are here to create a deficit for California.
