They have loads of Hq Overhead Fat that has never been looked at. Go to www.IBloom.net and download the entire WDFW Personnel list with job titles. It is close to 60% Bloated overhead and most do not have anything to do with "Direct Mission Functions" of the WDFW. In fact they went from 82/83 IT Job Descriptions in 2008 through 20% budget cuts the following year and wound up with 105 IT Job Descriptions. Yet during that same time period, Hatchery and Hatchery Positions were cut way out of proportion. Then look at the Financial Analysts, PR types, (My Favorite!!!!) Communications Specialists, Administration Specialists, welders, carpenters, etc., etc. Those overhead type functions/jobs are far more efficient if the Service they represent was contracted out. There has been repeated Performance Audits and Recommendations to do that for the last 10 to 15 years. Yet WDFW management gets more Grade Top Heavy (More and More Program Managers), and in effect ignores those Audit Recommendations. I could on with quite a lot more specifics/details but it just pisses me off more and more, and gets worse by the year. The reason I am specifically responding/quoting your post is that stating the Fat is Zero, no more can be cut only spreads a false impression. Look and analyze the readily available data yourself.
