lateral vs. list

OK so my department hired a bunch of people off of the lay off list which is fine. Now those people are beeing hired back including the ones who we just hired three weeks ago. To replace them they are calling for laterals rather than hire off of the civil service list. this is not the first time the chief has done this since he has been here. I think its unfair to the people who are waiting on the list who have lived in the city their whole life. Am I wrong by thinking this? :?:

Sounds like the city is trying to save money...personally I've been passed over for laterals..and I was pretty pissed about it but oh well...thems the breaks....the only good thing was they got some problem children officers out of it which was better than revenge cause the chief decided after that they would no longer take laterals....Of course now we have a whole bunch of lay offs to deal with....AAAAHHHHHGGGG
