Worked. Past tense. I told them if I didn't get an apology and/or the complaint rescinded, I was leaving.
It's nice being semi-retired.

I can't even articulate the level of fraud and corruption in Minnesota. It could be it's own thread. Over the past year or so, >$1B in fraud has been exposed.
Fraud in Minnesota is particularly rampant in the Somali community here with the most visible being the Feeding Our Future scandal, which was so vast it could no longer be hidden; over $250M stolen in that scam alone. Still, it took the US Attorney to step in and bring federal charges.
Much of the fraud is a result of programs created under the DFL (the Minnesota version of the Democratic Party) but with virtually no oversight. The DFL held a trifecta of power over the legislature and the governor's office the past several years, when many of the mechanisms for fraud were enabled. But it goes back even further.
Sadly, not a single person in the Walz administration has been fired or held accountable...nor will they ever be. Much of the local media fails to report on it, although they're beginning to wake up because the levels are so significant that even they know it can no longer be ignored.
Here's just a taste of some of the recent fuckery:
To start, our legislature is full of clowns like this lady lady:
Why is she a clown? Here's a partial list of the recent scandals:

(Note: despite the article's headline, the solution is NOT complicated at all...)
Millions in state funding sent to Minnesota nonprofits that may be violating state law

They were warned: How state government kept allowing the theft of the people's money
This is just the tip of the iceberg but provides as idea of just how bad the problem is.

Meant to add this to the post above:
It continues to this day:
And, finally, I'll leave you all with this gem:
Some people are bitching about $300M in private funds being used to build a ballroom in the East Wing of the White House.
Those same people are mum about Minnesota DFL renovating a political palace in St Paul, MN to the tune of ~$750M in taxpayer money; this is the rough equivalent of a bonding bill for the entire state! This of course after blowing an $18B tax surplus without any explanation for where the money went.
