A Bromance
I've mentioned many times on this blog my professional crush on DC Public Schools Chancellor Michelle Rhee. Now allow me to show why I have a bromance with NJ Governor Chris Christie:
I love the part where the teacher is complaining about her pay. It's like people who move next to the airport and complain about the noise, or move next to a pig farm and complain about the smell.
It seems many in many professions feel like this lady. They choose a profession where the pay may be adequate or good but not great. And then complain about it. I am particularly sensitive to this when someone who is under government employment makes this argument as they are usually much less accountable than those who work in private industry where their performance matters to the company's profitability.

Any chance he runs for President in the future? The guy is a straight shooter.
