First off, those SES bastards get thousands in bonus money while the dept. is facing serious shortages of cash:

Best of all - other news wires are buzzing with our Agency's lack of inspection activity. It's not that different than corporate america - execs in the big bucks even as the shareholders and employees are screwed while the company sinks.
More personal to me -
After those HUGE battles last week, we just found that another case came in that, ironically enough, I reviewed and advised that we not take a removal action (I even advised a 30 day suspension was iffy), they took the action anyway. Now the case is on appeal - just like the case we went over last week. The question comes up - how many cases did they reject our counsel on, and why are we supposed to clean up their mess? Chance our our performance appraisals will be based on our w/l ratio - even when we told the branch in advance not to take the action in question.
No winning. Still, it's nice to have saved emails to document that their action was contrary to your advice.
