The Boston Globe had a story today about how Transportation Secretary James Aloisi's sister had a "no show" job in the State House for six months. According to the Globe story, former Speaker Sal DiMasi assigned Carol Aloisi to former State Representative Rachel Kaprelian, who is now the Registrar of Motor Vehicles in Governor Patrick's administration. According to the story, the incoming Floor Leader, Garrett Bradley of Hingham went to his new office, he literally "found" her there.
My question is simple: how tone deaf are these guys? Why would anyone with any common sense give that much ammunition to the Howie Carrs and Mike Barnicles of the World. Why didn't Carol Aloisi ask to be reassigned to somebody else?
This kind of stuff makes me crazy. Because state government is actually an honorable enterprise. Because most folks working for state government put in an honest day's labor, and many of them are actually underpaid. And this kind of story ruins it for all of them. I don't get it.
