BLAMING BABY BOOMERS

See, we didn’t rip down all of our predecessors’ achievements in order to appease a group of Karens who sought retribution for every perceived fault.
We were not without our faults and absolutely need a tuning up on some issues, that is well deserved, but be careful if you think the following generations are going to be so much more enlightened because hindsight is always 20/20.

GET BACK TO WORK
Dear public servant, if you refuse to return to work at the office five days a week, you should be fired. You are well paid, have generous vacation time, sick leave and flexibility to leave for family-related issues. You get a generous pension as well.
Excuses like you need to watch your kids don’t fly. How can you watch them if you are working?
If you refuse to return to work in the office, I am sure there are 10 others who would love your job. Get to work or get off the payroll.
