Actually happens all the time in park settings where a lot of groups cycle through, and the interpretive staff are either interns, temps, or contractors.  No one tells them who they are talking to because no one cares enough to do so.

What happened to people taking pride in their own work and not having to be told what to do?  God forbid someone puts some thought and effort into doing the best job that he or she can.

Dude, that's just not cool. Being a government employee I'm getting really tired of stuff like this. My guess is no one told her what sort of group she was speaking to.

I was also a government employee...only way to fix the joke/problem is to not fall into its trap.

Probably the same place personal responsibility went...

Little late with this one but figured the Conrail goons here would like this.  CSX work train with an SD40-2, SD40-2, SD50-2 and GP15 on a work train today.  All ex Conrail units.  The first unit was actually a PC SD-40 rebuilt by CR.  Still going strong today.
