Remember, in public service you don't have to do your job thanks to the civil service system, and you stop working early in life at public expense.

But you get harrassed and, perhaps, fired over stupid crap like this. Ever wonder why public services cost so much and stink?

In 20 years in government (now over -- had enough), no one ever, ever managed to keep my busy. Hopefully they'll replace that guy with someone who can use the whole day to get less done.
