This is My mans style here BOI!!! Just under $700,000 (something like $600,661) that's what it cost to have a "training conference". At a nice little posh resort and spa in Phoenix, AZ, the Social Security Administration (SSA) sent 675 of its managers to a stress relief conference. The reporter that was there said he saw nothing but dancing. They taught these people how to dance on your dime. All expense paid, food, lodging, and airfare at the tune of 700k.
This is a quote from the SSA Commissioner:
"Workloads have gone up, resources did not go up proportionately, and the agency was too slow to embrace new technologies," said Social Security Commissioner Michael Astrue, explaining the backlog. "It's a combination of all those things."
He is trying to explain the reason why, more than 765,000 people are waiting for hearing to receive benefits.
Wonder why all these firms, banks, and unions get away with the same stuff on your dime. Hey, But don't worry. The Demoncrate Congress is looking in it.
