There Goes The Mill Rate ...

Big cost around these parts is to pay a custodian to unlock, and lock, the doors of the school. While the games are going on, usually all day Saturday, and part of the Sunday, he sits in his little janitor room reading his little janitor newspaper, or watching football, or basketball, on his little janitor television. As a taxpayer I wonder: since he's getting paid overtime, can't he actually do some custodial work while on the clock? I also wonder: why can't the Park and Recreation Department get together with the Education Department to come up with a better system? Unions? Can't live with them. Can't live without them.

Now could somebody please help me down from this soapbox. It's kind of high up here, and I'm not getting any younger.
