The moment you take your eyes off, slide back another feet again.

Those old timers might complain how unreasonable the customers are and how crap the job is (I agree), but the reality is also with their sort of lousy attitude and total lack of professionalism, they wouldn't be able to survive anywhere else. Only PA would accept that sort of standards, even in proper ministries / stat board a lot of them would be put on PIP long ago.
Yeah, they are no saints...but compared to most grassroots and residents, they are so much better than even saints.

The motto in PA is "if it ain't broke, don't fix it...even if it's broke, try to make do until someone complains".
Which is why they have the same programs and activities every year and if you try to suggest something new or different, they will beat you down until you conform.
At the end of the day, you wonder why you even try especially when you are dog tired to boot.
Still have bad dreams about my days with them...
