Ghost employees?

Scott

Tim,
Of course if they all show up to collect the check, where is the waste?

I agree - But you have to admit, for almost 6,000 to even HAVE to go through this is a waste. Of time, resources, trust and potentially (and probably) public funds. I cannot remember another instance of "hey - can you show up here so we can prove you exist so we can pay you?"

Doesn't that district have a regular and systematic method of checking up on employees, verifying payroll and work being completed etc...?

If just 3 employees are "ghosts" that's potentially over $100,000 in salaries and benefits that should be going elsewhere, or better yet, in the classroom.
