Office technician? WTF is that? Sounds like someone that erects office cubicles.
I'll bet there's plenty who'd do the job for less.
And can speak better English.
I figure it's "file clerk."
Okay, so maybe $38,000 a year out in California is chicken feed for pay, but on the other hand, file clerking is chicken feed for a job. I'll bet there's plenty who'd do the job for less.
Ok. I am assuming it is a government job? Only the government could call some clerk an office technician. :thatsright:
Clinton will add to delegate lead after Michigan, Mississippi contests
Hillary Clinton is projected to add slightly to her delegate lead after splitting Mississippi and Michigan with Bernie Sanders on Tuesday night.....
.....The tight margin in Michigan will likely prevent Sanders from narrowing the delegate gap, despite his win there. The AP projected Sanders the winner with 50 percent of the vote to Clinton's 48 percent. That will give him at least 63 pledged delegates to Clinton's 52, the AP reports, with another 15 left outstanding. As long as those delegates are bound around the state's margin, Clinton win the Tuesday night delegate haul.....
Sanders Could Win Big States and Hillary Would Still Win More Delegates
Robby Mook says Hillary Clinton shouldn't worry so much about losing some big states. After all, Clinton would still pull in more delegates--even by losing.
That was the message Mook, Clinton's campaign manager, delivered to reporters earlier today in a press call.after which images of some twitting comments
As reporter Susan Page noted, "Clinton campaign manager Robby Mook: Sanders could win OH IL & MO and Clinton would still win more delegates next Tuesday."
Today's conference call comes the day after Clinton suffered a major loss in the Michigan Democratic primary. But though Bernie Sanders scored the major victory, Clinton apparently scored more delegates.
"Sanders's narrow Michigan win netted him only seven more delegates than Clinton, while her massive victory in Mississippi gave her a 25 delegate edge. The night netted out then +18 for Clinton. Her overall delegate lead — when the unelected and unpledged superdelegates are added into the mix — stands at 650, and she is now more than halfway to the 2,383 delegates she needs to formally secure the nomination."
Only the government would pay someone in a position such as that a lot of money, too.
The WillyT primitive works for the state of California; that's public information, his wages, overtime, and benefits.
There's some people so lacking in motivation and the desire to do any work for whom a government job's a godsend, and here's a prime example.
Since government jobs are so remunerative, so lucrative, I think there should be a greater turnover in them, so as many people as possible can ride the gravy train, at least for a little while.
Everybody getting a slice of the pie; if that's not democratic socialism, I dunno what is.
Just as we have term limits for elected officials so they don't stagnate, getting fat and lazy and rich in the job, I think we need to have limits on how long a person can be on the government payroll, after which they'd have to go out and work in the real world.
Al Sharpton wants Biden, Kerry, Warren to run if Clinton indicted
Rev. Al Sharpton takes Hillary Clinton at her word that she won't be indicted over her email scandal, but said if she does he would hope that a well-known party unifier would step in to replace her.
He even named names in an interview today: Vice President Joe Biden, Secretary of State John Kerry, Sen. Elizabeth Warren, former Massachusetts Gov. Deval Patrick and South Carolina Rep. Jim Clyburn.....
Oh my.
Well, well.
One wonders if WillyT and his Bernie bullies have seen this yet.

There's a prominent name missing here; one wonders why Al's not keen on Methuselah.
Tweet of the Day: Sanders tweets about internet access, gets pwned
Mention that Democratic socialist presidential hopeful Bernie Sanders is 74 years old, and you immediately get slapped down by the PC police for the crime of ageism. Yet there is no getting around the fact that Sanders is getting up in years.
If [sic] he wins the November election for president, Sanders will be the oldest man ever to be sworn in as commander in chief. On the day of his inauguration, he will be two years younger than Ronald Reagan was on the day he left office after serving two terms.....
Whether you chalk it up to age or some other cause, Sanders’s approach to spreading the wealth in every way imaginable got him into a bit of a pickle yesterday. Earlier this month, Sanders tweeted:
Bernie Sanders
✔ ‎‎@BernieSanders
Today, people living in Bucharest, Romania have access to much faster Internet than most of the US. That’s unacceptable and must change.
5:22 PM - 2 Mar 2016
Yesterday, the tweet was answered by someone living in Romania, who pointed out:
PauL Marco ‎‎@djPaulMarco
@BernieSanders In Romania we have faster internet b/c we killed our commie dictator on Christmas morning in 1989Then we open up the markets

Bernie Sanders’s most vitriolic supporters really test the meaning of the word ‘progressive’
.....That's the good news for him. This post will admittedly not be about that. So, Sanders voters -- particularly those keyboard gangsters, frequent commenters and tweeters, and those convinced of a grand media conspiracy to end the Sanders campaign -- prepare. This piece is about another aspect of the Sanders campaign and some of you.....
.....Something -- we cannot say what -- inside certain corners of the ostensibly progressive and overwhelmingly white ranks of Sanders voters is amiss. There is a pattern -- demonstrated time and time again -- by both Sanders and some Sanders supporters of racial cluelessness, an infantilizing and almost colonial kind of condescension about policy, and a tendency to react to anyone who points that out by, well, supplying even more evidence of racial tone-deafness, self-ordained intellectual superiority and sometimes completely open displays of various forms of outright bigotry.....
.....That's right. We said it. In trying to make their case, Sanders, and far more often some subset of his supporters, behave in ways that are difficult to square with their claims to progressive politics and building a more inclusive and egalitarian society.....
.....But the emails, Twitter messages and comments I have received tell a different story. They use a variety of curse words and insults typically reserved for women. More than one has suggested that I deserve to become the victim of a sex crime. They critique the "objectivity" of what is clearly political analysis based on polling data and other facts; they insist that black voters are dumb or that I have a personal obligation to help black voters see the error of their Clinton-voting ways. It is vile. And it stands in sharp contrast to the claim that no portion of Sanders supporters are angry people who sometimes engage in or embrace bigotry.....
.....As per usual, more than a few Sanders supporters tweeted claims that it was all a joke or that some portion of the Sanders electorate had been suckered by the cruel handiwork of a troll. That may be true. But the fact is that many, many people used it -- until the complaints began. And the larger problem is that this really wasn't the first display of offensively dismissive, superior, let-us-tell-you-black-voters-what-you-need-and-how-you-should-vote commentary from some subset of Sanders supporters.....
.....When Sanders made an effort to boost his black-voter support in South Carolina, and then again on Super Tuesday, Clinton claimed victories with black voters just as big as before -- 9 to 1 in some Southern states. And instead of taking from that outcome that the Sanders campaign may have work to do, how many times and how many ways did the campaign and some Sanders supporters say or write some version of this? "Black voters, if they knew what was best for them, should be with Sanders. If they weren't so brainwashed by the Clinton mystique and awash in 1990s nostalgia, if they weren't so poorly informed by the corporate-controlled media, if they just knew how to think a little more deeply then, of course, they would be Sanders voters."....
