Bill, that's cool, nor do I, but that there is a dropoff for them and a place to dump the rest is good! As long as they are going to some good cause, and not a beer bust, OK!
At least drop them off to a charity location. The last thing the Government needs is donations. I worked for the Government for MANY years and the money wasting is at a epic scale. Fancy $10.00 pens, $600.00 chairs, constant reorgs, cell phones for people that never use them, unnecessary levels of management, employees that are hired just to pick up other employees slack, computers for EVERYONE and MANY employees riding out the state buck until retirement. I'm not saying there are no amazing government employees, however the state seems to do its best to create money wasting employees with its odd practices. MAke sure the money is going to a good cause or give them to a neighbor that has the extra time or can use the extra cash.
