motocat12 Posted July 21, 2015 Report Share Posted July 21, 2015 All part of the job? Worth it in exchange for a chance at pork later on?Spending donors $ while drawing a salary.If everything runs smoothly with them focused on something else do we need them in the first place?

magley64 Posted July 21, 2015 Report Share Posted July 21, 2015 Missed votes should result in docked pay, miss more than 7 votes, you're fired. Simple. If you're fired, you forfeit your pension. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tonik Posted July 21, 2015 Report Share Posted July 21, 2015 I doubt there is a single asshat on OR that hasn't called in sick to go on a job interview, or some other similar shenanigans. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
motocat12 Posted July 21, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 21, 2015 I don't think a whole campaign can be run within a bank of sickdays. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tonik Posted July 22, 2015 Report Share Posted July 22, 2015 So a little bit of lying to your current employer is ok, but public above board campaigning is not? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magley64 Posted July 22, 2015 Report Share Posted July 22, 2015 Missing one day of work is reasonable, failing to do your job for months on end is not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tonik Posted July 22, 2015 Report Share Posted July 22, 2015 Naw, running for the next office while in office is part of the deal. It's how our system works. Not like they do much anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zx3vfr Posted July 22, 2015 Report Share Posted July 22, 2015 Maybe, but there is a limit to how many sick days you can take before you're fired.The house worked an average of 137 days a year since 2001. That's 219 days a year they are not at work.. With a 28 hours spent working a week...Leaves plenty of time to do other things. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The lobbyists already write bills for them . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

4DAIVI PAI2K5 Posted July 23, 2015 Report Share Posted July 23, 2015 No workie, no payie. To much time off, no job to have time off from. Seems like a simple solution. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MichaelS Posted July 23, 2015 Report Share Posted July 23, 2015 If they still make their votes, fine. But some currently in the gop white house race are missing votes.They are only missing the 456,554,363,453,450th vote to repeal the ACA so they aren't really "missing" anything.
