EPA: not just keeping your tailpipe clean

Its not just the EPA, although that agency is certainly highlighted here.

Look at any resume of a government employee putting in for promotion, transfer to new position and one can find fabrications, although not to this extent.

In 25 years of working for the federal government, I frankly grew sick of these people. Claiming they had done this that or the other, while in truth their efforts toward some of these claimed accomplished goals was much, much less than written in their resume.

So, they buttered themselves up, making themselves look as good as possible, while conveniently setting honesty aside. A majority of those that read these resumes could see through the BS, but it certainly did not stop people from continuing to write like this.

Creative writing at its best, or worst.

Head scratcing errors that have caused the people, and businesses, of this country billions of dollars and alot of unnecessary inconvenience and hassle and have caused unnecessary laws to be written, which will likely never go away....

Just the tip of the iceberg, if they cared enough to actually check on their employees..........

It sure did, as this was their "senior" advisor who they quoted when they were making policy changes due to "climate change".

It does make you wonder what you would find if you checked into his work history a little more deeply, and why it wasn't done earlier. The wonders of bureaucracy in action, or I guess it should be inaction.

Agreed, not the EPA's "fault" per se but just an example of how, even at the top of the food chain, important things get missed and head-scratching errors occur.
