Just too funny

Quote:In order to ensure Americans understand how to access the benefits available to them when many provisions of the Affordable Care Act go online October 1, the Obama administration announced last month that it is setting up a call center that will be accessible to Americans 24 hours a day.

One branch of that call center will be located in California’s Contra Costa County, where, reportedly, 7,000 people applied for the 204 jobs. According to the Contra Costa Times, however, “about half the jobs are part-time, with no health benefits — a stinging disappointment to workers and local politicians who believed the positions would be full-time.” The county supervisor, Karen Mitchoff, called the hiring process “a comedy of errors” and said she “never dreamed [the jobs] would be part-time.”

Don't do as I do, do as I say.

The word you're looking for is "irony".

Par for the course.

Congress, the IRS, Unions, they all want to be excluded for this disaster which was pushed for by Obama, Congress, and the Unions...

Some Animals are more equal than others.

Only thing better would have been putting the call center in India....

Those Acorn people had to have a 2nd part time job.

The IRS outsources to India.

The funny thing about you guys, they are trying to save the tax payers money and you ***** and if they hired that many full time you would have bitched it was a waste of tax payer money. It is damned if you do and damned if you don't with you guys.

My guess is that many of the part time jobs will also be temporary.

Probably true. Most will be college students and retirees who only want to work 10 or 20 hours per week. That's what happens at call centers.

But it's looking more and more like only Republicans will have to live under Obamacare. I wish I was in one of Obama's protected groups.
