#219: new citizen - employees 

 nobody knows how many there are but one thing is for sure, we have too many. They cost us a fortune with salary, benefits and pension plans. We are not aware of salary, another lack of transparency. But we do see how they have "never-ending" breaks. No "shift" work so we end up paying time and a half and double time during winters with snow removal. And i guess the town doesn't believe in lay-offs. When times are tough, we should be able to let go a few of the un-needed workers. My sympathies to you for buying a house here, you are now "condemned" to ownership of a broken-down, dictatored regime in a town with no future. Just like all the rest of us. Please do make your comments, i'm sure they will be usefull.
