Yes..
And they tend to travel in packs.



I'm in a new job as a contractor to a GOV office at present.  The majority of the G employees here are "un-motivated" to say the least.  The work all gets done though.  Basically because there are a few of them who really bust ass and get it done.  What seems to be lacking in this office is everyday 

"joes".  There are workaholics and lazy SOBs, but very little middle ground.  In my limited experience (I am still wet behind one of my ears anyway) this is different from the private sector where the majority of the folks put in there good 8 hours and then get away from it until 9am the next day.

my 2 cents.

No, i think he's saying that painting the entire government with a single
brush due to some morons is about as stupid as saying all private industry
is corrupt b/c of a few morons.


There's morons everywhere :o
