If I were to develop a job description for the current council, it would go something like this.
Position: Worcester city councilor.
Compensation: Generous salary ($33,204 annually), plus full city benefits package.
Requirements: Must be able to nod approvingly every time the city manager clears his throat. Must be able to send “thoughts and prayers” on a moment’s notice. Also, must have a working knowledge of social media in order to repost public messages readily available on the city’s web site.
Ability to speak at length and say absolutely nothing is helpful.
Duties: Required to attend weekly meetings, except for three months during the summer and another month around Christmas. Must pose for pictures which you are then required to post on social media showing how active you are in the community.
Hey, look, this job is clearly not for everyone. But our city charter says we need 11 people filling those big fat leather chairs at City Hall.
