On April 27, 2010, I got a job with the United States Census Bureau in New Jersey. With a hidden camera, I caught four Census supervisors encouraging enumerators to falsify information on their time sheets. Over the course of two days of training, I was paid for four hours of work I never did. I was told to take a 70 minute lunch break, was given an hour of travel time to drive 10 minutes, and was told to leave work at 3:30pm. I resigned prior to doing any data collection but confronted Census supervisors who assured me, “no one is going to be auditing that that level,” and “nobody is going to be questioning it except for you.” Another Census supervisor only said he’d adjust my pay after I gave him a letter recanting my hours.
Given Okeefe's habit of doctoring/creative editing of his so-called tapes, the guy's credibility is zero. Who really believes anything coming from his less than honest mode of operation?

The guy's a proven liar. Anything he brings up now is pretty much to be ignored.
Only idiots who want to ignore it will ignore it, only a true idiot would ignore something that's clear as a bell on video. It's no big surprise that the census would openly waste tax money, what government org. doesn't waste a ton of money?
All I can say is that this sure doesn't happen in my region of Wisconsin. It is drilled into our head that we census workers represent the census bureau and must dress professionally, act professionally, and, above all, be honest and careful in all our reporting. I have been through 3 seperate weeks of training and the supervisors check up on us on a random basis to make sure we are doing our work and doing it properly. We are required to give the telephone number of those we interview so the regional office can call and check on us in a radom manner to make sure that we turned in correct information. They check our milage that we turn in through GPS monitoring and if it doesn't check out we had better have a good explanation or be fired. I just spent hours today out in the hot sun doing census work and doing it honorably and I really resent these muck rakers trying to make it seem like we are a bunch of scammers. He should speak for himself.
