Another state agency, another allegation of excessive OT

Biting audit finds 'excessive' OT, other major issues at Louisiana Highway Safety Commission

Count me in.

All that OT the state police can’t get anymore must be up for grabs.

The Department of Public Safety and anything corrections related are all corrupt. It’s ridiculous that people get away with stealing our money. It’s no wonder people don’t want to pay more taxes.

I wonder how many of those hours were spent holding up a shovel?

It’s kind of like the Baton Rouge traffic lights. They say it will cost millions of dollars to synchronize the lights. I wonder how hard it is for them to do this when they have some many people on staff taking their sweet arse time doing nothing.

Get six people to work the lights going right at the speed limit starting from Burbank at Nicholson and go all the way down that road at the speed limit through Florida Blvd. Next start at Nicholson and Bluebonnet and go through Bluebonnet at the speed limit all the way to O’neal. Same thing from Nicholson and Lee to Florida and Perkins and Essen to Jefferson.

Make sure all the routes cross over Airline at the same time and/or Perkins at the same time so you can then synchronize Perkins from Highland to government and highland from Airline through LSU.

It doesn’t cost millions when you have the staff that can do it. Do this at 2 a.m. and account for starting time at each initial point. I’m not a traffic engineer but I have some common sense.
