#3  Why does an 85 year old still have the job?

His replacement is 73.

And he made them pay to get him out. Walked away with 10 grand. Which was cheap, considering he wanted a 2 year buyout. Felt he "earned" it.

#1  The investigation missed the most important part. Why does an 85 year old still have the job? Look through the public records and see who he dontaes money to in the local Democratic Party. Then see the periodicy of his larger cash withdrawls and cross reference them against his normal lifestyle spending. Poof, brown bag donations and political donations = lifetime job.

We had a guy who had a similar work pattern in a certain state agency in CA. Did "public relations" work for an agency.

Every year the Governor's political office called our leadership and asked about using him for several "special events", and mentioned how important he was to them and how special they knew he must be to the agency. Never any direct instructions, but you'd have to be a dope not to get it.

Word was he was doing $10,000 a year to contributions. Quid pro quo.
