While we were leaving we were able to run across a few people and you hear things. One thing for certain is DDOT's Director status is a topic. A lot of names are being thrown around, but there is no clear decision from the administration on which direction it intend on taking with repsect to stable and permanent leadership at the Department.
Also the Navigator "old" news is just a tip of the iceberg. Add up all those new iphones the managers are playing with all day, across the government that is another huge area of waste (especially mobile technology). And since were on that topic lets add up the monthly phone charges and I gurantee you hands down managers would be charged near triple the amount all the Union employees put together would pay if charged for excessive usage.
