Today's Chris Christie Lesson in Government

If you're going to call in sick in New Jersey you better be sick:

Three union workers who called out sick to attend a labor rally at the New Jersey Statehouse last week have been suspended.

The move comes a day after Gov. Christie told NBC New York in an interview that "people who call in sick better be sick." Christie issued his warning ahead of another labor rally that drew thousands on Thursday.

Monmouth County officials said the three employees suspended without pay Thursday work for the county's Senior Citizen Area Transportation service and are members of CWA Local 1038.

The county said the workers were among 14 in the department who called out sick; officials alleged that 174 developmentally disabled adults who depend on the county's services ended up "waiting for buses that never came."

That's how it's supposed to be done.

Remember when doctors were handing out fake medical excuses to public union employees in Wisconsin? Have any of those doctors or the people using the excuses been punished? Not to my knowledge. Gov. Walker needs to do a little Chris Christie on those people.
