pay them in washers!

Yeah, yeah yeah, I hear it all the time, the same soporific, vapid digs at public sector workers. If you two could do so much better then maybe you should become civil servants and show us how it's all done. Only problem is that you wouldn't want to do a weeks work for a pittance. The problems stem from poor management and lack of manpower to complete everything that is expected of the lower echelons of the public sector.
Any single parent civil servants in rented accommodation would be better off on benefits. By the time your rent and council tax is paid you would probably have less from working than what you'd get for idling.
p.s. If we have to work away from the office, we would have to provide a receipt even for a sandwich costing £1. This is paid back in our next wage packet (taxed of course!).
