Staff & County Commissioners Share A Special Bond. By Geniusofdespair

I reported on Vile Natacha Seijas' Chief of Staff. But what about the others? Do they deserve raises? I think Staff deserve raises because they have a job no one would envy: shielding their bosses and doing pretty much anything else requested of them.

Think about it. County Commissioner Audrey Edmonson is off to South Africa next month. We are paying for the trip, of course. Just like we paid for Vile Natacha Seijas's trip to Brazil earlier this month. However, Audrey is bringing a member of her staff with her. If that isn't torture -- having to accompany an ego-soaked boss on a trip and watch her eat scrambled eggs in the morning -- what is? Commissioner Barbara Jordan, when she went to Washington recently, brought staff with her. Can't these commissioners find their hotels by themselves?

Why are we paying for trips when we have a budget crisis. Heck, even if we don't have one, why are we paying for trips?

So they know where to ship the county's used buses, police cars and other equipment.

If they make staff part of the problem, then they cant complain about the boss.

Disgusting. Wasting our money in a budget crisis.

So arrogant. Audrey has been a huge disappointment.

She is utterly and completely ridiculous.
