The five-minute job only took (at least) ten days.

Finally the animal carcasses dumped at the Warm Fork Park are gone. After ten days. I didn't get a chance to check yesterday, but this morning they are gone.

On a hunch, I also checked out the (17th-century) bathroom.

Whoever cleaned up the corpses did not replace the toilet paper. Or clean the dead leaves and stagnant, standing water on the bathroom floor.

Maybe they would have cleaned up the dead animals faster if I'd stayed on their butts with a call every day, but I'm the type of person who believes you should have to pester people into doing their job. One report should be enough.

But that's Thayer city government (and government in general) for you -- ten times the cost of the private sector with one-tenth the efficiency.
