The World's Tiniest Violin: Common Council Edition

So much like Europe, the Common Council gets a break all throughout August. 

How nice.

Tonight's news featured a story about the CC having a "special session" to approve permits for the Harley party on third street.  Here's where the tiniest violin gets played.  Those of us in the private sector have to call in for conference calls during our vacations.  Hell, some of us have been expected to work from home while we are sick.  I know I've done both, it's just part of getting things done.  I think I'll call the news the next time I have to interrupt my PTO for work.

That said, the permit-applyers should have had their sht together a very long time ago.  Shame on you!
