With the economy lately, it seems as if finally people who have been stealing from the taxpayers are finally being weened out little by little.
For those of you who have been following the Bruno case, we now also have a few that were caught.
Two former employees of the Office of General Services, Marciano, 50, of Rensselaer, and Gary Pivoda, 48, of Latham, a janitor, pleaded guilty Nov. 12 in Albany County Court to low-level felonies. They admitted watching television, taking drugs and sleeping on the job this year in the hidden party lounge in the state's Madison Avenue parking garage.
These two man are pleading not guilty, even from the evidence of the video that they where doing something wrong. The video may not show if they where smoking marijuana or sniffing cocaine. It does show them slacking off on the job, and the obvious man cave they created for themselves.
So if you take away the drug charges, you still have two man that did something wrong on the job!
