    How is the government (a publicly elected body that is subject to being held to account by that same public) telling when you can spend you money somehow worse than a private compa…

    People see this as a waste, but that is how team relationships are formed. Jeff from accounts may be eating up time today talking about Batman, but 3 months down the line you'll be…
