It’s astonishing that city workers are failing to show up in person — though perhaps not, giving the decay in public services in Los Angeles.
The California Post simply walked around city buildings last Friday and found them abandoned — a virtual “zombie apocalypse.”
Many staff members were working remotely, as if the coronavirus pandemic had never ended.
It wasn’t a long holiday weekend. Just a regular Friday.
And city stafftold The California Post that it is a regular occurrence.
Members of the public who needed help from the city found no one was there to assist them.
They took off work, braved traffic, navigated the downtown maze, paid for parking — and came away empty.
Is this how Mayor Karen Bass hopes to prepare for the Olympics?
Mayor Bass evidently ordered her own staff to show up at least four days a week — but evidently has not demanded the same basic level of commitment from those working in other departments.
For a city that wants voters to approve tax increases on the June 2 ballot, this is hardly a convincing display.
