Gooter says
Well deserved. As much crap as the council and executive administration spew to the citizens, I am sure the sewage personnel are working overtime!
Miss Gulch says
She is likely very deserving of such an honor i am sure. However. I was taken with the degree to which she did not smile. I think the county’s motive behind employee of the month is not what it should be, but if it gives positive credit to those who work hard, that’s fine and dandy.
Plain As Day says
Maybe she saw that this award either came with no bonus, or it was so small.That after taxes, she actually owed them money!
Miss Gulch says
Plain as Day, you are right!
none says
Would you smile if you were forced to stand next to the most despised man in Harford County?
Forget that says
None,
Common commie mistake to think that non-tribal members are not people.
