Coming San Diego Govt Layoffs

[kewp]

[quote=lostcat92120]I’ve worked for both public and privet sectors. I honestly think that some public sector environments are much more competitive than private. [/quote]

The government put a man on the moon for less than what Goldman-Sachs has lost over the last year.

I’ve worked in both and as far as productivity goes its a wash. It’s certainly easier to get rid of poor performers in the private sector, though.

Edit: In my experience, there is much more corruption in the private sector. Probably because of the tighter control of money and stricter accounting in government.

The City of Chula Vista is going to lay off 200 employees after the holiday.

The county is in a $75million pit hole

MTS is $6.0 upside down this year and another $17million next year (say good bye to all weekend service)

SANDAG has more money than they need and just had an amazing x-mas party.

City of San Diego -$40 million with tons of cuts..

Escondido how much?

No, cuts are coming. There is a first for everything. Govt is broken for the first time in modern american history.

“productivity” isn’t just a matter of how much “stuff” you get done, it is how much useful stuff you get done.

In gov, you may do as much “stuff,” for the same money but it isn’t necessarily useful stuff. It’s just stuff someone made up as something that needs to get done, with little value added.

In the private sector, the amout of useless stuff that can get funded is limited by the revenue of the business.

Don’t we wish this was true: In the private sector, the amout of useless stuff that can get funded is limited by the revenue of the business.

I would say that Govt has the same limitations.

This is exactly what I was trying to understand. where did the notion that govt doesn’t do anything and spends time on wasteful things come from? When did it all start?
