INC NEWS - Solid Waste Director leaving

[RW Pickle]

It has come to me from 3 sources now that our new Solid Waste Director,
the fellow I just applauded for what he was trying to do, is leaving/has
left. Fired one source says, resigned another, and yet another unknown.

If this happens because trash doesn't get picked up one day, the next time
it happens I expect the runs on the ladder to start getting shorter as
well from those that are left in charge. There is just no excuse for this.
Someone needs to respond to why an innovative thought like "work 40 hours
get paid for 40 hours" doesn't make sense. I did hear that in an act of
dissent, a group of 15 or so workers in trucks with horns blasting, played
parking lot rodeo in the Administration parking lot the other day. I say
send them to the house and get some people in there who will get the job
done. Regardless. Not temps, not contractors, but workers who believe that
they should be paid for what they do, not what they don't.

Here two of us citizens (Ken and myself) who both thought his actions were
well placed. Perhaps those left in the wake of this shocker can explain.
Not just some story to make us feel better, but tell us what happened that
caused a man who I labeled as "Action" to leave. Are we just stuck with
doing the same old stuff?
