The Edmonds School District can be in complete and total violation of the signed contract, and the district simply has to claim management rights. Usually though, that article and paragragh are pointed out by that strong union we have representing us. That would be local 925. They don't want administration to stress too bad on any violations, so they are quick to intervene and threaten the covered employee with that language. Hey Matt Wood..... What is the point of signing a contract if only your team has an obligation? It would appear that you are more interested in protecting and representing the opposing party. What would the stats look like in the grievances won column? Have any been won on your watch? I mean employee wins, vs. the district. Is it cozy over there on the first floor as long as you continue to subdue the groups you should be representing? I'm probably not too far off base if I was to guess that 925 will find a new home for you soon. We are at least three deep since your local's takeover of the Edmonds School District. Tara gone. Brandon gone. Both of them took that black cloud with them. Nice track record. To this point I might add, that you are no more popular or effective amongst the working class. Debby Carter must love you. She has another partner in crime. Cheat, steal and lie. How fun. And the district can sure hold their heads high for not caring about the condition of their troops let alone their students. You know it really is facinating that there is this whole different level of ignore, that I never saw when I was growing up.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29571009.post-91913710175704730892008-10-18T16:01:00.000-07:002008-10-18T16:01:00.000-07:00...and Powerful Partners, Tutors, Parasites is sti......and Powerful Partners, Tutors, Parasites is still not paying rent.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29571009.post-59504851710122056742008-10-18T14:21:00.000-07:002008-10-18T14:21:00.000-07:00Anyone can read this blog entry at the next board ...Anyone can read this blog entry at the next board meeting.<BR/><BR/>By "anyone", I mean anyone without a career at stake.ESD15.orghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13226260553219032275noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29571009.post-83194954816477331952008-10-18T13:43:00.000-07:002008-10-18T13:43:00.000-07:00Since the County Auditor has made it clear that th...Since the County Auditor has made it clear that the School Board alone and by itself is accountable for its actions, then the Board has a specific obligation to personally and directly explain why he chose to ignore the issue of a conflict of interest when he was specifically informed of such a situation.<BR/><BR/>Director Noble should do the right thing and provide a statement that explains his rationale for ignoring the conflict of interest and perusing his candidacy. If not, he should be held accountable to the voters at the next election.<BR/><BR/>It also appears that the County Auditor is an organization without teeth. If all they do is "make recommendations", then we should question their value in these difficult economic times and perhaps reduce their budget to more support more valuable operations.Rick Jorgensenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02943109379666847658noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29571009.post-67965607912103050652008-10-18T13:32:00.000-07:002008-10-18T13:32:00.000-07:00Well written article; once again, Mark, you amaze ...Well written article; once again, Mark, you amaze me with your excellent journalism expertise, which includes the facts, carefully explored, and your dedication to the BLOG.
