The guy is questioning others attendance. Sitting in a seat does not equate with performance, just ask a certain councilman who is having child care issues. He calls in and works throughout the week. If a councilperson at 24,500 a year can miss , call-in or walk out early why is it such a big deal if a Commissioner is recovering in bed.<br />At least there's tangible evidence that they are out- 6 years the guy was a commissioner and you want to point to three absences?
