Day two of retaliation? —Where's Glenn?
Facilities and Maintenance workers told me today that, once again, Director Wayne Ward seems to be meting out retaliation for workers' speaking out about Wayne's unprofessionalism (see this & this). At least that's how they see it.
This morning (I'm told), Wayne asked the custodians' lead worker to pull a custodian from the pair who were supposed to clean the B-quad. The custodian's new job? Scraping gum from around the A400 building.
I actually saw him doing that this morning. Scraping. That scraper didn't look very efficient. The worker didn't look very happy.
Meanwhile, the other custodian was left to clean the entire B-quad by himself. Naturally, that put him behind his cleaning schedule.
I'm told that there is a pressure washer for this "gum" job. Evidently, a grounds worker had used the washer to blast gum from the same area two days ago, but, evidently, Wayne decided that the effort wasn't good enough.
But he didn't ask the grounds worker to finish his job. Instead, he pulled a custodial team apart, insuring that they fall behind their schedule.
Plus the custodian wasn't given the pressure washer to use.
GLENN? Are you listening, Glenn? Have you a clue, Glenn?
RECENTLY, I mentioned that a certain manager at IVC got into trouble a few months ago for using the college credit card to buy gas for his car. (At this point, you should imagine the sound of sirens.)
I've been told that more than one manager was caught doing this. (Now, please imagine the sound of, oh, a snazzy Camaro. Vroom.)

It has always been the prerogative of children and half-wits to point out that the emperor has no clothes. But the half-wit remains a half-wit, and the emperor remains an emperor.

I saw the pressure washer in use on Monday in the A-quad (near A-400) as did a number of other faculty. We noticed it because it was, well, noticaeble: noise, water, mist, etc. Quite noticeable as classes began.
Keys please!
Didn't we ask the director of F & M months, months ago whether or not there was some kind of schedule for regular cleaning or classrooms and communal spaces?
Weren't we told there wasn't?
Weren't we we wanted a particular place to be particularly cleaned, we needed to ask?
Weren't we told then that he didn't have enough staff to do the job and so he couldn't made a schedule?
What is going on?
Notice the hostility toward children in Gaiman's observation.
I thought Glenn drove a SeaDoo not a camaro.
GLENN-HEAR NO EVIL-SEE NO EVIL
The cleaning staff use to clean from 11:00 pm to 7:30 am and this year they were move to day shift and swing shift, trash and dash.
I WAS TOLD THAT THE WAYNSTER SAID IF THEY SEE YOU, THE COLLEGE STAFF WOULD THINK THAT EVERYTHING IS GETTING CLEAN. HOW STUPID DOES HE THINK WE ARE DUH!
Very Good Question "Where's Glenn?"
Glenn....Glenn who?
This wayne guy seems like he is quite a character. I have seen him before, but I did not know who he was til now. I thought he was the chief of police assistant, he is always wearing shades and that thing on his ear. Remember this quote "Can't we all just get along"
Listen, let's have no more talk about or supposed descent into a "Ghetto" college.
I deleted the previous two posts.
vrooom, vrooom.....
