EBR "leadership" paying $2k/mo to drive around & report junk

Pretty incredible.
Your job is to drive/sit in BR traffic and point out where all the blight is.
Seems ridiculous, given the fact 94% of EBR parish is blighted.

If the loop is closed and the identified blight is removed swiftly (i.e., within a week), it's worth it.
Need to expand this to report homeless. Downtown is like the fricking Walking Dead.

$2k/month ain’t much.
Lotta things to bitch about.
This prob ain’t one of them.

That midset is how we got where we are today.

One of the less detailed reports came from Terral Jackson, who worked as the outreach manager for District 7 until January of this year when he was indicted alongside Lamont Cole for corruption. The reports received from Jackson were little more than an invoice for payment.
He put in enough effort to get the money though.
This is an example of why we can't have nice things.

We have an organized syndicate of leeches here in EBR.
Cops were starting at just over 40K a year while a blight checker gets 20K a year?????

But then the new democrat voter, aka government employee, would lose the very job that was provided due to the swift removal of blight, the very same blight needed for job security.
They better rethink that one.

That's only $500/wk, is gas covered? If not, it's not even worth it.

If you don’t actually do the job, then what gas is being used?

So it’s ok to doke out a couple of grand a month to your buddies under the guise that they are reporting blight?
I would like one of those jobs. All you gave to do is drive a few miles into a blighted neighborhood once in awhile and fill out a report. A report that gets filed away. A report that is meaningless.
It’s a worthless program, but it’s just the tip of the ice berg. I’d bet under the guise of drug prevention, homelessness, mental illness, gun violence, or whatever the problem NGOs are feeding off the government trough.

I was talking about for the people actually doing it. I have nothing to say about the people taking money for nothing, and the people allowing them to do it. I hope they end uo behind bars.

The job "required" 20 hours a week.

Could you drive uber or something and double dip?

The assessor's office or a sheriff 's deputy could do this instead.

So, it seems it would be easier to drive around for $2k/ for one month only to report the non-blighted areas, is what your saying.
