It would be that if your tax money wasn't already paying for the guy's job. I see it as blatant bribery.
- xapata 9y ago> paying for the guy's job The taxes pay for a certain pace of work. Faster work requires more parallelism (more employees or better software) and thus more taxes.
- dragonwriter 9y agoTax dollars are paying for the regular work on the FIFO queue; satisfying the expedite request without impacting the regular work on the FIFO queue requires additional hours of work to be done in the same time, which costs money that the taxpayers, through representatives, have elected not to pay for. Rather than prohibiting such extra work outright, they permit it to be done, at the requesters expense. It's a two-tiered system that favors those with more resources to expend, but it's not bribery.
- jjeaff 9y agoI'll be very surprised if anyone is actually pulling overtime to get your paperwork done. My guess is they just put it to front of the line and work continues as usual, overtime or not.
