Chief White House Calligrapher Gets Paid $96,725 Per Year!
[h=5]You have GOT to be kidding me.......[/h]
In all, the White House appears to employ 3 calligraphers for a yearly total of $277,050.
Despite sequestration, there's been no announcement of the White House scaling back on calligraphers.
Seriously?

I was going to ask how much could there be that needs to be written in calligraphy?! I googled it and found this -
Calligraphers are needed for the preparation of invitations, placards, citations and White House awards, created by hand, according to the White House.

What another big waste of tax payer dollars at work. Thanks "O"! I know he's just helping some buddies out. Why don't they just use a computer and accomplish the same thing for $12.00 an hour! Hello!
