So they had a nice big party to celebrate their accomplishments for helping education in the State of California, whats the big deal? Everything seemed legit to me and everyone who works hard through out the year should be rewarded for their efforts, which this orginization did.

I agree. I think it is cool that they received a reward for all their hard work.

Its ok what happened.  Keep in mind that employees are not allowed to play any lotto games so they get smth back with prizes like these...

If you had a choice would you choose to be a lottery employee knowing that you wont get a chance at play or would you do smth else ????..(They make decent money i bet)

Not all that decent in Idaho.  $19 to $22 per hour for a detective.  I mean it's not poverty wages or anything, but nothing great either.  About the same as a mail carrier I think.

For CA I realize that's not a fortune if you have a mortgage and a family to support, but if someone offered me $20 an hour with benefits, I'd give up playing the lottery.

Most people who work for a state lottery that absolutely have to play just go to a neighboring state to play.

They have to promise not to play the lottery they work for, not all lotteries.

It's Lotto, not horseshoes or artillery!
close doesn't count!

I sell everything at a loss but make up for it in volume
