Remember the attendance plan that was promised in March, then May, then August?

But the budget? That’s the biggest deadline of all. And then Cram lies about it to the press? I’ve been following budgets for years and they always release the full document that night of the release or maybe the following day.

I've never seen someone in communications so terrible at their job.

You need to lay off the pipe. They're amazing at it. I get 15 emails about every little thing.

I just read the detailed piece on the budget in the latest issue of Things to Know from MCPS. These people just like to complain about everything.

505 pages! Happy reading, DCUM!

I am experienced budgéter. For chocolate and non-broken candy canes, I am willing to take one for the DCUM MCPS team and read then summarize the 505 pages.
