Nice literal use of the expression "run into" :) Fri, 13 Jul 2012 15:11:11 +0000 http://www.komonews.com/news/local/Whatcom-County-teen-runs-into-loaded-gun-in-lake-162343896.html?clmob=y#IDComment401049850 http://www.komonews.com/news/local/President-Obama-wants-Wash-to-get-more-degrees--162298486.html?clmob=y#IDComment400702943 With tuition for public colleges in Washington going up 15% next year, college isn't exactly getting easier for people to be able to afford...

I left WAMU for BECU in 2000. Since then, I have never paid a cent in fees. I even had to stop payment on some checks that were stolen. They didn't charge me a dime.

I work in private industry, and my employer allows for a certain amount of money to go towards motivation and keeping employees happy. I don't see any reason why public employees should be refused the same treatment.

Why would it be so difficult to get this kind of problem corrected? The fact that KOMO had to contact the state on this person's behalf to get the problem fixed is just asinine.

Not exactly presidential material, for certain. If anything, he is the embodiment of the traits that make congress so dysfunctional these days.
