Haven't done their taxes in over 7 years.
Most of them stay in place in permanent employment because they don't know the first thing about communicating with people and/or running a business that doesn't fail in the first year.

I have always wondered why they don't convert the system to rail. Seems like a much more efficient way to transport a vehicle out to the pad.
