If you were to show up to the office intoxicated you’d like be terminated the same day – unless you worked for the city and happened to be a member of the union. In the latest display of government inefficiency and mismanagement, an Albuquerque, New Mexico bus driver who showed up for work intoxicated ended up being put on paid suspension. He will now likely be allowed to return to work.

While his actions don’t reflect those of every union worker in the country, it does reflect the inherent problems within unions and government. In the private sector, when people fail to meet the necessary requirements for performing their duties, or by their actions put people in danger, they get fired. When you are employed by the government, you get rewarded with a five month paid vacation and get to keep your job. We wouldn’t be one bit surprised if the driver gets a promotion.
