have you ever had one of those work days
where you just didn't feel like doing
anything at all well we're about to make
you feel so much better about it a
silver servant in Spain was about to get
an award for two decades of service
until his bosses found out he hadn't
actually done his job for six of those
years and now it's going to cost him
about twenty seven thousand euros or
thirty thousand dollars a former deputy
mayor said he was given an office and
stayed there until one day more than a
decade later I remembered in thought
where was this man was he still there
was he retired was he deceased meaning
it could have been even longer than six
years the man denies the allegations
apparently claiming he came to work
every day but there was no work for him
to do and according to the independent
he had a family to support and feared it
would be difficult to find another job
so he read extensively and became an
expert on the philosopher Spinoza so
maybe it wasn't a total waste for newsy
