    IRS pisses away $60 grand on Gilligan's Island and Star Trek training videos

    Fucking A... Way to go assholes...


    The agency says the video, along with a training video that parodied the TV show "Gilligan's Island," cost about $60,000. The "Star Trek" video accounted for most of the money, the agency said.


    The IRS said Friday it was a mistake for employees to make the six-minute video. It was shown at the opening of a 2010 training and leadership conference but does not appear to have any training value.

    i was a procurement officer for the federal gubment. the money we pissed away every year on bullshit was astonishing. makes your skin crawl sometimes but the money was good .


    when you get for example, 10 million and you only spend 9 million, the next year you'll only get 9 million. to avoid this, the last month of the fiscal year everybody put in for every pet project, bullshit retreat they could find.

    it's disgraceful.

    no new managers ever understands that, when i try to explain why budget forecasts are initially inflated. my employer has gone to zero balance budgeting to accommodate the practice.

    a competent GAO management would have switched to zero balance budgeting ages ago. i guess this is what you get for public sector managers.

    Money well spent training people to go after Thurston Howell the third, he's been hiding his money off shore for years. But Star Trek, that's over the top.
