I have always looked out for the safety and welfare of the Citizens of Mt. Juliet, whether it be Residential or Commercial. I have always enforced provisions of the International Building Codes. I have always acted in good faith and without malice in the duties required by the code. As the IBC states 102.1 Where there is conflicts between general and specific codes the specific shall be applicable. 102.2 The provision of this code shall not be deemed to nullify any provisions of local,state and federal law. I have took a special interest in Life Safety and Welfare (which included ADA Compliance & Fire-Codes) in assuring homes and buildings are deemed safe. I loved my job and took it seriously. I have been very grateful to be a part of the growth in the City of Mt. Juliet. I am very dissapointed and concerned that the City of Mt. Juliet has chose to terminate me because I cannot do part of my job as a building inspector do to being assaulted by a contractor. I do know if my boss Gary Branham had backed me up in the field prior to the assault, with consistancy in the code, the assault would of never happened. I pray this happens to no one else, and I pray Randy Robertson can sleep at night knowing I am telling the truth and the �past� is not the past and I cannot move forward as he suggested, for I have no job and I have no insurance for medical treatment for doing my job for the city, especially getting hurt on the job. I was told by my boss Gary Branham I was the best inspector they had. What happened that they (the city) would fire me if they said �I was a good employee� I went by policy as they changed so many times, as they demanded to do so. I did what I was told as they threatened. I was never insubordinate or recieved oral or written reprimands. So why????? I am in no way asking for pity, I know the city desires to have respect from the community but it has to come within before it will filter out. Laurie Everett with the Mt Juliet News asked me if I will appeal the termination? The city sent police officers to my house out of their jurisdiction while I was on medical leave for stress temporarily, to issue me a letter of termination. The city runs a tight ship, they always succeed in whatever they wish to accomplish, theres no use to appeal. There decision is made.
