Is this city worker sleeping on the job?

Of course not! It is plainly obvious that this employee is texting. He has his iPhone under the desk to keep the glare off the screen. Sleeping in such an over-lit office would be darn near impossible!

Who is he texting? Hard to say from the picture, but I'm guessing he's probably checking in with his boss to see what task he should undertake next. And I have no doubt that he is asking his supervisor this question even while he is on his break!

Believe it or not, this photo is a big deal in Toronto. It was brought to the attention of the public by none other than George Mammoliti, or "Giorgio" as he now styles himself, a career politician who has, over his career, drifted quite unanchored towards the right wing fringe of the political spectrum.

George, I mean Giorgio, flat out claims that this obviously diligent city worker was SLEEPING ON THE JOB!!!

Thank God that sharp-eyed pols like Giorgio are watching out for the taxpayer's hard-earned dollars. Giorgio suspects this youthful scofflaw may have caught a few winks on the taxpayer's dime.

Oddly enough, just a couple of weeks ago Giorgio was in the news because he has been availing himself of a massively below-market-rent apartment, courtesy of one of Toronto's major real estate players.

That's right, sharp-eyed Giorgio can spot a shirker anywhere, and he also can spot a $800 gift from a real estate developer. That's $800 every month.

You're not still on the housing committee at city hall, are you Giorgio?

Man, would that ever be a conflict of interest!

But at least you busted that napping rink-rat who may or may not have been snoozing at the local arena.

Hypocrisy knows no bounds...
