Snitch in the tower -- disappointed, 22:10:55 07/05/09 Sun
Wow Saint, I didn't know you were a rat. You caused two brother officers to get suspended because you put your nose into something that didn't concern you. I shouldn't be surprised, because how else could you have remained on a suckpump post for more than ten years.

STOP YOUR CRYING -- dont point fingers unless you absolutely know??, 17:07:05 07/07/09 Tue
Smile though your heart is aching
Smile even though it�s breaking
When there are clouds in the sky, you�ll get by
If you smile through your fear and sorrow
Smile and maybe tomorrow
You�ll see the sun come shining through for you

Light up your face with gladness
Hide every trace of sadness
Although a tear may be ever so near
That�s the time you must keep on trying

Smile, what's the use of crying?
You'll find that life is still worthwhile
If you just smile

That's the time you must keep on trying
Smile, what's the use of crying?
You'll find that life is still worthwhile
If you just smile

there is a big difference between officer and inmate -- one two, 18:20:19 07/06/09 Mon
Why do professional people speak like inmates. Inmates called themselves snitches. Correction officers should say officer so and so reported. You are not inmates so don't speak like one.

A Supt. thats turned over the place to unstable social workers. A Dep. Supt. that runs and hides everytime certain Inmates are around, also authorized Inmates on Ad Building roof to work. how about this scenario; Inmates jump off roof and find gun in car, then rob bank, Dep then blames Clerk with golden badge(scape Goat) The remaining Deputy seems to be the only competent one, and she is following the orders of the other two, god help us!

dating service -- truth, 13:24:36 06/10/09 Wed
Has anyone else noticed that the bughouse has become a dating service. It is pretty pathetic now. some of the ones before made sense--losers like on A1 and A2 who could'nt find anyone in the real world. But now it is getting out of hand.Boundraies ladies. You people talk about it all the time and you have none. Yuo talk about the nurses but you are sitting around all day doint nothing but socializing and dating.

It has come to my attention, that another Clerk in Uniform,( no not Red this time) has been removed from his position, for signing his superior"s name.Now to obtain what, We have no idea, but someone should check his inventories for items that do not pertain to Corrections, such as a barber chair, or Barber Equipment, I believe he is training for his future, which might come sooner then he thinks.

Why dont you all look at all the Super Sucks that have infested us. Thats right! clerks in uniform! How about the red headed one who tries to impress Karen by deleting all our codes so we cant call our families! Ya, I"M really impressed with him! The same self involved clerk with a grandiose personality, who cries every time he is pulled from his clerk position! Thats right, the same one that signed his reports SGT. long before he even made rank!I personaly don"t work a tough unit but They constantly badmouth their fello Officers that do. My guess is to divert negative focus off themselves. So why don"t we discuss them?

Looks like the boys finally hooked up Solo. He is being reassigned to special ops working with Karen reviewing use of force reports for the state.

can you believe this crap two rookies overseeing our hard work and even better is that not one of these 2 rooks have ever used force on an inmate. so uninformed wind talkers to lie against us. think of the discipline now heading our way

see what left wing bleeding hearts will do when in power. karen gots a hole year on the job and big heavy solo spends 3 months blowing steve kenneway and look what he gets....

Hosted by Back to Google NewsBiden says unions are way to rebuild middle class
By SAM HANANEL � 3 hours ago

WASHINGTON (AP) � Vice President Joe Biden, making a renewed pitch for a major change in labor law, told union leaders Tuesday that the best way to rebuild the middle class is to help labor unions grow.

Biden said it's time to "level the playing field" for unions by passing a bill that would make it easier for workers to organize.

"You've got to climb up a hill with so many roadblocks on the way to organize that it's just out of whack," Biden told a conference of the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees, which has about 1.6 million members.

"If a union is what you want, then a union is what you should get," Biden said.

The Employee Free Choice Act � also known as "card check" � is organized labor's top priority this year, but business groups are adamantly opposed. It would allow a majority of workplace employees to sign cards to join a union instead of holding secret ballot elections.

Senate lawmakers are working on a compromise version of the measure that will satisfy some moderate Democrats that have concerns about the bill. Democratic leaders need to garner 60 votes in the Senate to overcome an expected GOP attempt to filibuster.

Biden pointed out the difference between public sector employees, where 37 percent belong to unions, compared to the private sector, where just 7.5 percent of workers carry union cards. He said federal, state and municipal employees face fewer barriers to organization, while managers in the private sector use "every trick in the book" to undermine unions.

Biden said he and President Barack Obama would not consider their economic recovery efforts a success unless growth creates "good, sustainable, livable jobs in the process." A key element, he said, is rebuilding the American labor movement, which has steadily declined since the 1950s.

"We will not consider it a success unless the middle class is growing, taking a piece of that productivity," Biden said.

Biden chairs Obama's middle class task force, which evaluate policies and recommend ways to boost middle-class families.

Business groups that oppose the organizing bill say workers would be subject to union intimidation without secret ballot elections. They are also concerned about a provision that would let government arbitrators set a contract if workers and management cannot agree on a first collective bargaining agreement within 120 days.

Keith Smith, a spokesman for the National Association of Manufacturers, called the bill "a power grab by union bosses seeking to inflate union membership by skewing the careful balance of our labor law system that has worked well for more than half a century."

Katie Packer, head of the pro-business Workforce Fairness Institute, noted that the bill has been losing ground with Senate Democrats. Sens. Blanche Lincoln, D-Ark., and Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., have said they won't support the bill without significant changes, though both have been involved in compromise talks.

"With unemployment increasing and more Americans looking for work, we agree with President Obama that the bigger problem is there aren't any jobs to unionize," Packer said.

CONCORD, N.H.�New Hampshire police and firefighters would have to work an extra five years before collecting retirement benefits under a bill before the Senate.

COMMENTS ()
Workers hired after July 1 would need 25 years on the job instead of 20 before collecting benefits. The House-passed bill also would raise the minimum retirement age from 45 to 50, but the Senate proposes deleting the age requirement.

Fiscal conservatives are supporting the bill. Police and fire unions had objected, arguing the changes would harm older members who can't meet the physical demands of the work.
