I personally asked Noman, after Monday night's City Council meeting, if it was true that he and Laurent were fired from their positions as LA School Coaches.......
He said, " Yes, and he has been a COACH since 1989 "...........WELL,
It did NOT last long.......they hired him back last night, with Miller voting, NO.
Poli-tricks!
Some other political crony guy stood up and hollered to hire Laurent back.....but the BOE said the position was eliminated.
Poli-tricks!

LACKAWANNA CITY SCHOOL DISTRICT IS AN EQUAL OPPORTUNITY EMPLOYER
Per Front Page: Lisa Friend for VP of School Board????? Gimme a break....WTF!!! And she even voted for herself....CLASSY!!!
I was shocked to read that the School Board passed a "resolution" (OH BOY) objecting to the tax shift in the July 18, 2012 Front Page. Are these not the same people who stuck the taxpayers for the cost of hiring Family and Friends. Are these not the same people that not only hired family members but gave them increased wages and BENEFITS. Where in the hell did they think the money came from in the first place. Maybe the MAGIC MONEY TREE. It did not seem to bother them before.
I’m sure President Miller and Vice President Friend can explain this to us how hiring their wife, daughter and husband did not magically increase my taxes. I’m sure Moytka and Joyce can also join in with the choir. Seems that these guys want us to believe that their past transgressions never effected the taxpayer. What planet did you guys come from? Maybe they will do the right thing now and reduce the cost of the School District by cutting staff. I’m not holding my breath.
It seems that we need to take a closer look at the total cost (Wages and Benefits) that these guys stuck the taxpayers for their hires of family and friends. I'm sure it is not insignificant.
Words and resolutions are cheap baby but their actions will speak volumes. Excuse me now but I need to go out and water my MAGICAL MONEY TREE BEFORE IT DIES.

Hey Annette I see you posted the July BOE minutes, thanks. Unfortunately we cannot view them when clicked.

************************************************** ************************************************** **
After this meeting I was approached by one of the BOE members who said they "would support me for one of the cleaner positions". They came up to me as I was getting ready to go , I never even considered applying, because .......just because.
...... After lengthy pros and cons discussions with my friends, and giving it the benefit of my doubt.......... because I do NOT have health insurance........... I put in for it.....
I fully realized there had to be some kind of a backyard plot cooking against me.....but I only have a few more years to retirement, so it would have been nice to have health care again.
Needless to say, at the recent August 23 BOE mtg. .....my name was not in the mix.
Even though, I did think that .....maybe, just maybe I might be given the position just to try and prove to me, and the rest of the world, that the LSD-BOE is a neutral-non-political entity.
I am VERY-OK with not getting a CLEANER slot and am glad that they promoted 2 subs to permanent as it should be.
I just wonder what their real motives were when they approached me with an offer to support me for a job on July 12.
Lastly, the LA grapevine told me of another person who was offered one of those "4" spots.......typical LA poli-tricks.
I wonder.....just how many "offers" are floating around out there between the City-School-LMHA-AND, THE COUNTY?!?
P.S.
I am only sharing this because it is a prime example of their POLI-TRICKS.........and, I still can't get over the fact that they approached ME with a job offer!
Any opinions on their motives?
That's strange that they approached you.
Speaking of strange, did anyone see the news this morning and watch how the Erie County personell comissioner tried explaining how the county executive's brother went from chef to county contracts administrator?
I haven't seen it yet but a friend of mine can't stop laughing!
I remember seeing the brother at his Press Conference rally........... in front of our LA Library, when they announced in "Blue Collar" territory that he was running for County Exec.......he came wearing his chef suit.........and a lot of family pictures were snapped.
Thanks for sharing that info Andrea. It just proves that the BOE runs their own JOB FAIR, employment agency. Then when the hiring takes place it is at the Recommendation of the Stooge, we all know who that is. Maybe that BOE member you were approached by has some dark secrets that they don't want leaked out yet. That would be a motive and my opinion. What family/friend was hired anyway???
