What is the Deal with my Employees??

There is something that has bothered me for quite a while and now it seems to be getting that much worse. I need help understanding this problem.

I will hire some employees and the next thing I notice is that for the most part the most important thing on their minds is how do they can keep working for me. They kinda do their jobs but they keep telling me "See what a good worker I am and really trying to do well for you". The problem is that I have trouble really seeing any real work come out of them. Also part of the problem is that they have 2, 4, and 6 year contracts and I have to keep them on no matter how I view their job performance. From the day I hired them they keep on telling me that they want me to sign another contract with them before the one they are on has been really started. Oh, and also they fight with all the other employees and make for a hostile work environment.

I speak of my elected officials.

We sat down and talked about what I wanted and they told me that they could do those things that I thought important. They said that they held those same things important.

Damn, if they did not lie.

Now it seems all they are interested in is making more money from what ever source they can find, getting job perks that they deny to everyone else, worry most about keeping their job and extending the contract out to the future of infinity, listening to others that did not even hire them and then even refuse to listen to me and respond to questions that I pose to them.

If one ran a business and hired this type of employee, that employee would soon find the door hitting their ass as the employer kicked it out the door. Most of these people have never worked for a living so it might be hard to fully realize how one is suppose to really work for an employer or what it means to work a job that pays a half decent wage yet alone with benefits.

It seems that these people we elect are so worried about how they look in doing their jobs that they actually forget to do the job that they were hired to do. " I can't do that I may not be able to get elected again".

My position is that if they actually did their job instead of worrying about extending it they would not have worry about getting elected again because they really would put the people first and the people would be fools to get rid of someone that was doing a good job. So if one does a good job, you will keep it. If someone comes along that can do your job better and because of that you lose your job then so be it. Welcome to the real world that millions in this country face everyday.

There is no job security for the people at the bottom due to government and business whims. Everything thing that is granted to us we have to beg for.

I say to you

"Get off your butts and do the job that you were elected to do, getting paid for, and get this country back on tract".

These are my beliefs.
