A disappointing revelation


1. FIFTEEN GRAND. On today's Total Buzz, Martin Wisckol (of the OC Register) explains that, when, recently, he went through Tan Nguyen's campaign accounting, up popped the name (Trustee) "Tom Fuentes."

Jeez, Martin. That's old news. Get a clue. (Tom Fuentes, campaign advisor)

According to these records, says Wisckol, Fuentes received $15,000 from Nguyen's campaign from December to May. Writes Wisckol,
I talked to Fuentes about it last week and he said he did consulting work on the campaign for the primary and ... the two parties went their separate ways afterward. "Nothing unfriendly about" the parting, he said. "I have not spoken with Tan in months, so I'm not sure what direction the campaign has taken."
Tom reportedly added:
"As for the letter itself, it is a sad and disappointing revelation."
I wonder how disappointed Tom would have been had it been revealed that the Tan Man hired guards to stand outside polling places?


2. MORE RETALIATION? Today, Facilities and Maintenance workers told me that they feel that Director (of F&M), Wayne Ward, continues to retaliate against custodians who, one month ago, filed an Incident Report re Wayne’s conduct. (See "It's a condom".)

The workers tell me that, this morning, Wayne met with custodians, informing them that he is “here to stay” and that he has no intention of altering his behavior or practices.

Also, they report, Wayne announced that there would be work schedule changes.

After the meeting, the worker who, last week, found himself pulled from his usual task in order to scrape gum off the sidewalk, was informed by Wayne that he would now be switched from the day shift to the swing shift. Simultaneously, a swing shift worker would be switched to day shift.

Apparently, this change will entail a serious hardship for the worker, who has a second job, one he has held for seven years, which conflicts with the swing shift. The worker explained that his family depends on that second income.

Reportedly, Wayne was unmoved. According to my sources, Wayne then told the worker that he (the worker) was too easily influenced by his day coworkers and, that, as a result, his attitude has suffered.

Again, according to my sources, this worker has never been told that there is a problem with his attitude. Further, he is known to be a hard worker who is friendly and courteous to all. He has received appreciative emails from school deans regarding his hard work.

One custodian told me that, in his judgment, the schedule change is clearly an act of retaliation.

He added: “Wayne is trying to keep those who stand and speak up out of the day shift.”


3. BABRAHAM LINCOLN. From Wayne's World:

GARTH: What are you thinking about?

WAYNE: Cassandra. She's a fox. In France, she would be called La Renarde, and she would be hunted, with only her cunning to protect her.

GARTH: She's a babe.

WAYNE: She's a robo-babe! In Latin, she would be called Babia Majora.

GARTH: If she were a president, she'd be Babraham Lincoln.

Im shocked at what is happening at IVC with this wayne character it seems as if he has the backing of someone in high authority and is able to do what ever he wants. People like that wont last long and if their is someone behind him he or she will fall to. I think I wiil make a call to the Orange County Register and the Irvine Paper if something Is knot done about whats happening at this school. My tax paying money is what keeps this school running and I will now do my best to help so hang in their you have my support.

Wow! This Wayne guy has stories. Everyday he does something stupid! What is his background? Where did he work at before? I'm thinking he came from Wal-mart or Home Depot.

Don't believe everything you read. Wayne is actually a good man. He just inherited a bunch of union slugs who haven't worked a hard day in their lives. Remember, this group also came under suspicion of urinating on the previous director's desk chair. But some of you will always believe what you want. Hey, did you know Chunk Wheeler is really an alien from the planet Zorak? I swear! Just look at that sloping forehead - Zorakian for sure.

Let's talk about directors, in particular Nelson Cayabyab, who has the similar work ethics and characteristics of Wayne Ward. When a man such as Cayabyab, tells teachers to do the work themselves, after they asked for his assitance, is a man with no respect for others. Cayabyab is also a man who talked negatively about staff at IVC and attempted to, also, control F&M without the support of his leads and dedicated worker underneath him. One of the biggest mistakes Cayabyab did was take back authority that was given to his leads to run the department under him... just like Wayne Ward wants to control F&M without any input from his dedicated leads. A man with such mentality "who wont allow his leads to do their jobs" has resulted in F&M NOT RUNNING SMOOTH. Therefore, this has affected IVC in a negative way. As for Nelson Cayabyab, it was never proven if it was urine in his office. I would love to debate anyone about what has occured in F&M and there are many other secrets that have not been told.

Wow! did this Wayne guy come from Disneyland? I hear supervisors run their employees like the the ARMY over there. As I read all these negative reports on Wayne, I don't see how his workers look forward to reporting to work, much less work along with him and for him. I worked for worker's comp for 10 years and never have I seen a man so "mad and unhappy" with his job. Yes, you can say it's Wayne's World, but there must be no life or excitment there, because your retaliation expressed says it all Wayne. Come to earth Wayne and be happy with us. :-)

As for the Nelson incident,Nelsons window was broke and when the sprinklers came on it use to wet the inside of the office, further more you need to get you info right it was the carpet that got wet not his chair, the problem was under his desk mat where it didnt dry.Nelson made up this story about someone urinating in his office so he could put a deadbolt on his door.If you dont like the custodians just say so and quite hiding..

Well let me clear up the real reason for the deadbolt on Nelson's door, do any of you remember the $1100.00 leather chair incident, I know Chunk remembers, that is why the lock happened...
