MA Official Collects $90,000 Per Year, Rarely Shows Up for Work

She was just re-elected, so get used to it

Asked if it's reasonable for taxpayers to expect that for $90,000 a year she should come into the office every day, she said: "I think coming into the office is a bit of a misnomer. I think if I sat in my office all day I'd be doing the public a disservice."

The I-Team went back to Fitchburg in January to see if Daigneault had changed her work habits since we last talked. She had not. All told, in October and January, the I-Team watched Daigneault on 10 working days.

Over those two weeks, Daigneault was at the Registry a total of 31 hours. That's an average of about three hours a day.
