A bird in the hand is better than a bird in the bush p2.

I mean around a million a year after perks aint chicken shit, I'd be happy with a third of that, on second thoughts I'd be ecstatic. With that sort of money would you give a damn? Hardly! The previous DAS rarely ever turned up anyway, all she has to do is be quiet, do what she's told and if she actually thinks of doing something, kill that thought with a reality check by checking her bank balance every month. She's a career bureaucrat, there's no way she'll put her head on the block. I doubt she's worried, a departmental Secretary position would be just icing on the cake.
