very, very notorious.
I used to work for a government contractor that was involved with the DOT, specifically the FTA.

Jesus Christ. Every single person that works for the FTA is a worthless piece of poo poo that has no idea how to perform simple tasks such as text editing.

I'll never work for the government (in contract or directly under) EVER again. I once visited on-site, and every worker I walked by was either playing Solitaire and/or browsing Yahoo! news.

At the end of the week, I would get about 10 calls requesting help (read:doing their job for them) on performing a simple task such as updating the website through a WYSIWYG editor. Literally, adding text to a website.

gently caress the government.
