OT: Ontario tax payer's money at work

Was at a client yesterday, Ontario Employer's Advisor (free government service employers consult with for labour laws), to install Dragon Naturally Speaking on a new PC and test and such.

Well, I was booked there for 9, and the government IT ppl were supposed to be there for 9AM as well. Anyway, they didn't show until 11!!!! And so what was initially a 2 hour session turned out to be 4 hours!!

My company charges $110/hr for this, so just because these IT ppl couldn't get their sh|t together and be on-time, that was $220 worth of tax payer's money wasted and into my boss' pocket!

No wonder our country's badly in debt. [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-puke.gif[/IMG]
