Thousands Standing Around. That what many people say about our vaunted Transportation Security Administration. What would they say about what's happening at the World Trade Center?
I hadn't been there for a few years, and had some visiting relatives who wanted to see progress. The scope of the project is impressive - but why are so many people on site just shuffling around?.
Mid-afternoon on a Tuesday, we had to dodge hard-hatted workers on the surrounding sidewalks, all gabbing, or smoking or grabbing a bite to eat. They weren't dashing during break time - it lasted quite a while. Inside the fence, it was not uncommon to see many people merely watching as other worked; and these weren't inspectors, unless inspectors have become indistinguishable from tradespeople at the WTC.
I was quite surprised, to say the least. Should I also be angry? There are tax dollars at work here. Should you be angry too?
