Milwaukee Fire Department Administrator Wanted -- Only Idiots to Apply

Per an article in todays Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, the Milwaukee Fire Department has a $400,000 GPS feature in its computerized dispatch system.

However the $400,000 feature has not been used for about a year because a $5,000 server broke, and has not yet been replaced.

Alderman Bob Donovan was quoted in the article as calling the yearlong GPS breakdown "an unfortunate situation --- frustrating because we paid so much for it".

Hmmmmm --- Maybe such an astute assessment of the situation by Ald Donovan, would qualify him for an administrative position with MFD.
