I have a big problem with the employees getting paid to cut firewood for themselves. I'm not sure what should be done with the wood, maybe they should cut it up and auction it off to the highest bidder.
And when these inequities get pointed out, that's often when they decide it's simplest just to take the stuff to the dump. You would not believe the things my county literally throws away, because they couldn't find an equitable way to dispense of them since people were getting ridiculous about it.
