I have an idea...

You know how they have the daycare cameras (and I've even seen them at auto shops) where you can logon and see how your child (car) is doing while you are at work?

Well I think we should push to have them implement the same thing at the USCIS service centers.

Here's how it works:

-You get your case number

-The case number is linked to the case worker

-There is a camera above each case worker's desk

-You log on and can watch the case worker working

I think a lot more cases would get done a lot quicker

That's a great idea, but they should also implement a speaker system where if you see them slacking off or taking a break you can nag them and tell them to keep working.

Being as all my applications have taken longer than most, I would definitely agree that that would be a fantastic idea!!!!!

I have NEVER seen any USCIS employees move too quickly whenever I've been at the Seattle office!!!!

Wish I could find jobs like that!!!! I'm always run off my feet at work.

I think you wouldn't qualify for that job, as I'm sure the requirements are as follows:

1) Extremely SLOW worker

2) Lackadaisical attitude towards work

3) Must be easily distracted/must get sidetracked easily

4) Excel in the art of procrastination

haha!

Besides cameras, how about the Sword of Damocles, or at least a guillotine? Actually, let's save the guillotine idea for certain consulates.

hmmm hmmmm i think that cam is a good idea and they should also have to have a little prong attached to their well where ever and when u see them slacking have the button to push to give them a little electrical jolt to remind them that their slowness is the reason that couples are left with frustration....... and i would even volunteer to be the button pusher for every case that has waited for what seems like an eternity lol

would be nice to have interviews recorded also then we could see and hear what were the problems and if there were really problems or was everything just the intervieweres (opinion)

I'm just wondering, how many of you are posting in this thread from work today?

[USbride 0]

What's wrong Julez? Do you have a problem with a little light-hearted banter? We are just trying to make ourselves feel a little better about this whole situation.

It's all good. BTW...no I'm not working right now.

[*julez* 124]

banter is fine, it just bugs me a bit that there is always this implication that USCIS workers don't work. At all. I just think its a bit unfair, especially since we all know they have a big caseload.

[USbride 0]

Oh, I know they have a gigantic case loads (i mean look at how many are on here), but I also used to work for the government. I know that the government doesn't monitor how many breaks a person takes a day, and depending on the supervisor, they don't monitor the lunch breaks either. I worked with this one smoker that went out for a 10 min break every hour, and he still took his regular one hour lunch. Also, we were often released early on Friday or paydays, to "take care of business".

I respect these people for doing their jobs, because without them I would have no chance of bringing my love over here. But, I also don't trust that they are 100% on top of it every single minute of every single day.
