I'm glad that you are one of the good ones. Unfortunately, I believe you are in the minority. Its kind of like a joke that a lawyer friend told me:
Not all lawyers are bad. Its only the 95% that give the rest a bad name.

I have scruples and care about the work I perform as well. I also have perfect attendance and am consistent day in and day out. That should be the norm in this world and not something special. It just seems to me that when the worker has no concern of being fired or laid off (as is with most Fed jobs) then the quality and attitude goes down the tubes.

Used to go there too in the 60's. I thought it was a nice place.

The drawing is Waldo, being found. Your picture reminds me of San Luis Rey.

Overpopulation, overconsumption

Dead bird
On Midway Atoll, far from the centres of world commerce, an albatross, dead from ingesting too much plastic, decays on the beach – it is a common sight on the remote island

‘Surely the fate of human beings is like that of the animals – the same fate awaits them both; as one dies, so dies the other. All have the same breath.’ Ecclesiastes 3:19
