That is the trick with owning a business. You always drive a company
vehicle, with a company gas card. You have a lot of business meals and
business trips. At a certain point you don't need much salary to live
fairly well.


Yep. Welfare for the wealthy.


If all you want to do a punch a clock 9-5 M-F then all you should expect
is a paycheck.


If only it were that simple.
Anyone in the civil service can tell you that cutback after cutback has
left most departments streatched to the limit with more & more demands
being placed on the '9-5 worker'.
At least that's the way it has evolved up here since the 80s.


So those civil servants are finally doing some work and earning their
paycheck?
