[quote=Aecetia][quote=sdrealtor]Good point. Nowhere is nepotism more prevalent than in government jobs. Don’t believe it? Watch all the job changes and appointments as playoffs when a new politician takes office.[/quote]
Excellent point sdr and absolutely correct. We see it with the D.A., the Sheriff, etc. If they cannot force people that supported the other guy or gal out when they take office, then they transfer them to a dead end job where they will never get promoted. It is as full of cronyism as a D.C. lobbyist.[/quote]
Yes, there is corruption and nepotism at the political level. I’m referring to “boots on the ground” positions. These positions are open to everyone. I know a number of people who could NOT be hired because of their relationship to upper-level management (anti-nepotism rules and/or it was simply frowned upon and everyone knew the union guys wouldn’t like it — that’s one of many positives about unions: they can hold their “bosses” accountable and not worry as much about repercussions).
