RUBY TUESDAY" rolling stones

Setup and had a sit down meeting with Mr. Shepard Tuesday morning about some of the issues brought up on the blog. with concerns  to Painesville City Schools.

First both of us decided that bringing up union issues which we both knew nothing about would not be in the discussion.

Maintenance Tech? Mr. Shepard is unaware of a special license or Log the school system is required to have or keep.

He encourages people who want to use their own vehicles  to do so. It saves the district money.
No smoking in any vehicle is allowed on school property.

As far as the condom issue, what can he say. He's disappointed that a child found it and the schools will be more vigilant  of what is left on school property.


Mr. Shepard is not a believer in "Blizzard Bags" that's why he would rather add an extra thirty minutes to the school day. In the bags he has viewed it's a rehash of old tests.

He also informed me that his door is always open to resident, parents, staff, and students. It took me less then a minute to make an appointment.

***************************************************************************

This also was not discussed but if the classified employees want to double dip on calamity days I for one think there barking up the wrong tree.  I believe they will regret doing this.

I don't remember reading about the condom situation. Was that mentioned on the blog?

Is it really double dipping? Or spelled out in a contract?
Those people had no say in when or why the buildings closed. Why wasn't the 2 hour delay done?
And those people certainly have no say for the makeup. Some have other jobs, classes or family members that rely on them. This will cause a problem for them now.

3:54 I don't remember you complaining when you got the call at 5:00 am that school was closed? You could roll over and catch a few zzz and spend the day with your kids. Now many parent's scrabbled to find someone to watch their children that day, because they didn't receive a phone call from their employer to stay home.

First off the schools are there to provide an education for the children of Painesville not to provide you with employment.
Make an issue on this and I don't think you will receive support from the community.
Do what parents have to do make adjustments.

Term
No special license ! ( Just a plain valid state of Ohio LICENCE)? You know like if you hire someone out of the yellow pages. To do WORK like maybe electrical. THEY are required to have a LICENSE! form the state of Ohio Example lic.#1234. or State Certified#1234. The MINIMUM QUALIFICATIONS on the second line of the Maintenance Technicians contract. It says a VALID LICENSE IS REQUIRED! being unaware don't cut it as far as the State is concerned we will see!? As far as encouraging people to use their own! vehicles it SAVES the district MONEY? Where does the maint.tech put his TOOLS? in his sports car? More vigilant on school property? Have the Maint Tech, do his job. like FIX the LIGHTS! and maybe the CONDOMS will go away!you think! look try to get involved in your community and speak up. And YOU use it as a excuse to try to start crap! with classified employees. Most of them want to work!.And make up the Time they got payed for! The only thing I REGRET is thinking you cared! about the schools And did not have a hidden agenda. Will no longer read or comment on your blog!

6:22 Just telling you what I was told. Mr. Shepard must believe if the Main. Tech isn't doing the work only writing up work orders. You could go and bring your concerns to him yourself. Look maybe YOU should get involved in the community?
Didn't start crap? Only answering 3:54 comment.
You should regret that you think I care about classified, non- classified, administrators ect.
My only concern is the over 3,000 students in this district and they receive the education promised to them. They are not just viewed as prop's in this system.
Truthfully your union is a joke along with the way it is run. I realize now how easy the leaders in Columbus view your union as a paper tiger. Look... worry more what you do and less about who drives what. Bring your complaints to the proper authorities in the proper manner and quit using this blog. to promote your hidden agenda, what ever it is.
Good-by and good luck.

TERM

You should leave the school grounds alone! That is not your concern and you do not represent this town! The roads will be fixed in a timely manner. With out you watching the road crew! I think the school grounds look fine!
The big red electric trucks help many residents! You are NOT the MAINTENANCE POLICE! Not a Fan!

Thank you. for asking

6:12 and you read the joke?
7:56 Good not looking for fans.
Plan to see you both at the next BOE meeting? NA!

8:22 That was an uncomfortable moment for both of us. He was very upset and concerned. Although the comment left on the blog. mentioned both Elm or Maple?
Call him Monday and explain to him at which school it happened. As well as the area.

Same for accusing me 3:54 as being a school employee. For all you DONT know, I could be the parent of a small child who would rather have had the days added on. Better yet, blizzard bags and only 1 make up day. It is easier to get child care for the entire day than almost 3 months extra time. And starting crap? That's exactly what you just did here, bringing up this maintenance tech that no one knows a thing about and posting dirty laundry.

 
At April 8, 2014 at 7:49 AM , Anonymous TERM>> said...

4:11 Still think your a school employee, come out of the shadow.
Look we elect a BOE who hires an administration who decided when to close the schools and how to make up the lost time, live with it. You can't please everyone. As far as the maintence tech. I didn't bring him up another employee did. There really shouldn't be any dirty laundry to bring up right?

Almost all women are working now, and the schools must take that under consideration. If they don't, it's a huge disservice to the parents of these kids. Child care is tricky and difficult for most parents as it is, and any changes can leave someone without a job. My children are no longer in school, but I certainly hope that that is one of the first considerations of the school administrators. It is just a reality now.

Employee? I will be one now! all you care about are the kids? term all you care about is their education!? why don't you care about their (safety)? Being in a the new buildings!! The electrical work being done by somebody without a licence You cried about your taxes going up! You complain about city workers and teachers making to much money??Ask your boss if you can make 60 grand a year to call somebody to do your job for you!! no deference! All these people did is bring this looser maint.guy to your attention thinking you may care about the new schools and the money being throne away?? That's all! now I do think these people should call the (State of Ohio Whistle blower) hot line. They will take care of this! and you can remain anonymous! (They will check out your complaints) and FINE$$$$$ if necessary Then the Worm! I mean Term can cry about that.

If you are going to air dirty laundry then air it all or nothing. What's the story with this person? The outcome? And since this is your blog, you did bring it up by posting it then leaving out the meat of the story. Just cuz someone else brings it up doesnt mean you post it if all the facts arent there, right?

9:05/4:00 This blog. is an opportunity to hear your thoughts.
As far as facts I went to find them. 9:05 again it appears you want people to do your dirty work while you stand Anonymously on the sidelines. I get this is a personal issue for you? If your concern is safety why wouldn't you make these issues in a public form? Worm is out for now.

You aren't getting it. Dont have a clue what this maintenance person did or didnt do. If its legal or illegal. You are the one that brought it to light here, not me or anyone else. How should someone get involved with something or contact the schools it they know nothing about but what you are bringing up. Since you know all and have all the dirt you should be the one to finish what you started. Not leave it hanging.

10:35 I have no idea if I even know this person?
4:58 I guess my crime was trying to find out. Again I didn't bring the subject up. Possible something about nothing or a picnic promise left unkept?
10:41 I try.

You make no sense. You claim you didn't bring up the subject yet you put it out for the public to read and still can't answer our questions about something you brought up first. What the heck is this whistle blower? What and where does a picnic fit in to the story?

I think the Tax paying people of Painesville should be aware that the school Administration is PAYING the maintenance tech. Nearly 60 thousand dollars per year! who calls contractors to do his JOB!and his contract says he is to have a LICENSE WHY? Can the Secretary call the contractors? I think so she is doing it now? Levy lets (REMEMBER). When you have something fixed you save the paper work in a file! And then have the Secretary call them AGAIN when you need it fixed. Have the Secretary make a P O for the work done. Maybe pay the secretary a little more she does it anyway! ???????????

You are correct I do not understand
why the new administration puts up with this.? We could save allot of money!$$. I think that secretary should have put in for the managers position! Give her 25K a year rise the school system would save over 100 thousand dollars per year! She does most of both jobs anyway! And why is the maintenance guy and janitors working all year anyway? Kids are gone in the summer!! lets save some money No more LEVY'S
