Couple of weeks ago, I ran into a County employee in the wild. Went out of my way to carefully thank her for everything she and her teammates do for me, an Ottawa County resident…despite the nonsense. I am not exaggerating- tears welled up in her eyes. Thanks for writing this - it’s likely the most praise they’ve seen.
Andrea, thank you for sharing what so many of us feel! The cost of losing the good hard working employees of this county is one of the most heartbreaking and frustrating things about the last two years. Please stick with us, we're all pulling for you all and hope for better things to come after the election.
Agree. In fact I think of everyone who has worked at every level for the public, government in some way. Remember when Newt Gingrich said to stop using the phrase public servants and start saying bureaucrats? Not me. Public servants. And thank you.
Thank you, Adrea, for expressing many of our thanks to our county employees for their perseverance through the last 2 years.
