However, as a person who believes in moral and ethical behavior, yeah, it bothers me a lot. These slackers, who seem to care as little about their own careers and futures as their employer does, I say "why?" Are you that dead to your own potential and interests? Are you that "trapped" in your job that you feel you'll never be worth anything better? And I hesitate to say it, but are you that sunk into your dead-end existence living in the same little community your ancestors have lived in for many generations without raising or bettering themselves, that you will do anything or compromise your integrity in any way to stay in that rut? Recognize that in perpetuating that situation, you perpetuate the widely-held belief that education and advancement are not priorities for you and your neighbors, and that dependence on government is your only hope and goal.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5936951073896589340.post-50917951947646681272012-04-25T21:33:45.445-07:002012-04-25T21:33:45.445-07:00Does it bother you as a tax payer ?Does it bother you as a tax payer ?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5936951073896589340.post-81871912405135578202012-04-25T17:36:51.114-07:002012-04-25T17:36:51.114-07:00Most LLNL employees on AWS schedule put in no more...Most LLNL employees on AWS schedule put in no more than 8 hours a day.<br />I observe this day in and day out.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5936951073896589340.post-61577081966863696752012-04-25T06:48:33.884-07:002012-04-25T06:48:33.884-07:00Thank you for your honest responses.

As one of the reports said about the contracts is they are really only about punishment there is no award for accomplishing something like science or breakthroughs. To LLNLS and LANS every employee is a liability not an asset so the less time people are at the lab the better. Someone who never shows up also never has a safety or security problem and that is the perfect employee. As for a Congressional investigation forget about it we are a private corporation now. By the way has anyone thought about having a for-profit company running the secret service?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5936951073896589340.post-13978241223535675132012-04-24T19:44:39.760-07:002012-04-24T19:44:39.760-07:00Or what about the employee's and there two hou...Or what about the employee's and there two hour bike rides during lunch.

Also, when does NNSA, the american people, and the laboratories realize that you need to just get rid of middle management. Everyone knows this is the case, why does it not happen ? when you become a scientist, you know you are going to work long hours to be successful. This is not happening anymore at LLNL or LANL. The laboratories clear out at 5:00. No one cares. Management needs to change ASAP or the laboratories will be a thing of theAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
