[Nfb-or] Commission for the Blind rally

[Tami Kinney]

Great words! Will they be followed by action, one wonders?

The next question is, naturally, will the vacancy we can hope to expect 
be filled by a competent replacement? Will that replacement be allowed 
to clean up that very messy house? Will it occur to anyone involved in 
the process of replacing the administrator that if the employees under 
this administrator haven't learned to fill out forms by now, they're not 
likely to, in other words?

And that, perhaps, if any given state employee can't learn to fill out 
forms and perform other mundane and basic tasks, they are perhaps not 
suited for promotion. Or even for keeping around! I'm all for paying 
state employees what they're worth, really I am. It's just that I tend 
to think that a state employee who lacks basic literacy and office 
competency skills, ain't worth paying much. Or anything.

Or am I just being silly there?
