Why Pay A Non-Employee For What An Employee Should Be Doing????
The request was made and approved in the budget meeting to pay $300.00 to an employee of the County Co-Op to complete and submit the paper work to qualify for the governors' Three Star Program. It seems this lady, lady #1, while employed by the county had done this as part of her job. When she left for the job at Co-Op she trained another person, lady #2, to complete this paperwork. Now lady #2 transferred from the County Executive's office to Financial Management and no one else was trained thus lady #1 is called back into service. The question I have is why isn't lady #2 completing this task and why was there no one trained to replace her in this task?

Ypu have got to be kidding!
Because lady #1 is always trying to screw ppl out of money. And lady #2 is busy trying to hood wink the board of ed. to cover up for Jackson.
Wait a minute, wait a minute! I'm confused. Who is lady #1 and who is lady #2? This sounds very interesting, please tell us more!
Why is Mrs. Vanzant getting paid? First thing, she does nothing, unless you count cost the County money.
Second she lies about everthing she is ask about.
Third she is not even a resident of Giles County.
(ran for the office under false pretense, and has taken money, insurance at the expense of tax payers) FRAUDE at the least.
All the crooks are not in Washington and New York.
I wonder why our DISTRICT ATTORNEY does not open an investigation into the matter, and earn his pay check also. Maybe he is waiting for some one to call Chanel 4 new so they can look into his non actions and another the waste of State Money.
Lady #1 is good friends with Mrs. V. Go figure.....
Why do you complainers continually dwell on the negative and assume most people around here are either ignorant, deceitful, or corrupt in some way? Can't you ever say something nice about anybody...other than yourselves?
I noticed on another thread that someone called Mr. Jackson a nasty name. Had the victim been wab, don, or winkles, the entire post would have been deleted. Calling someone a SOB in a public forum is pretty low down, wouldn't you think?
And wab, it appears that the one with the filthy mouth is among your followers. I think you need to "lay hands on him" to convict the gainsayer! Would you agree with me on that?
7:12 why do you continually get on here and make a fool of yourself? I am the one that called Jackson a SOB. You want to do something about it? What SOB is to everyone is left up to interpretation. So shut up you hopeless windbag. This county is tired of people like you. Defending the guilty in this town. You don't like what I said I will gladly give you my name and number to call me when you give me yours and you can say it directly to me. You are quickly becoming the majority in this county. Wake up!!! Jackson is not popular since you apparently haven't noticed. I will say and do whatever I want and people like you will not stop me. I haven't broken the law. People like you are always wanting to over step your bounds to silence others. All I can say is if you are any friend of Jackson you might not want to be around when he goes down. Anyone resembling someone helping him with his twisted agenda to deceive the people and rob this county blind will be taken down with him without mercy. I suggest you back-off while the backing off is good! You let me know when you want to really face to face talk. I'm definitly up to the task to take you on and anyone else that feels the way you do. I love my county and I wont let you or anyone else destroy it. If you are a Jackson fan you are just as guilty as he is. You better be ready to battle me at every turn on here when it comes to him. Think.
No, the county is actually tired of "people like you" who think they know it all. Wonder where that came from? By the way, we both know exactly what you meant when you called Mr. Jackson's mother a name like that. Shame on you. What would you do if someone called your mother a name like that?
Hey, you need to calm down before you blow a fuse! You don't scare "people like me" in the least. Trust me when I tell you that I have faced the dragon, and I no longer have sense enough to fear "people like you". Oh, and that little "you want to do something about it" statement was pretty childish of you. Would you agree?
No 11:05 not childish. Put up or shut up! No they are tired of you and the band that follows Jackson. I don't agree with you of course isn't that fairly obvious? And no I don't trust you, does that shock you?? I don't see very many supporting your way of thinking posting in your and Jackson defense. We are taking back our county from the swindles and crooks. So you need to move over or go down with em. Hope it is worth it to you. You couldn't have made it any clearer by your last post that I easily touch a nerve with you. I do say what I mean on here and when I am out and about in town. You on the other hand haven't the guts to speak out anywhere but this blog. On the otherhand that makes you fairly smart due to the fact that if you defend Jackson people will most certainly lose respect for you. Shame on you too for not standing up for the citizens of this county instead standing up for a liar.
No, you sounded just like a school bully spoiling for a fight. Again, shame on you for that and for suggesting that I don't stand up for what I believe is right. And I was taught early on by good parents that calling someone's mother a name like you called Mrs. Jackson is beyond despicable!
Nobody over 10 years old still actually believes that the term "S.O.B." literally refers to a male child's mother...it's a derrogatory slang figure of speech, referring to a person's character, a very crude figure of speech that has become a common put down in our society, unfortunately. I find the term digusting, but the poster whose perceived self-righteous indignation that someone was referring to tee's maternal lineage was a ridiculous cry for an excuse to post something, just for the sake of posting. I hate that term, but anybody who is old enough to read this blog knows full well that the citizen who used that term was not referring to "Mrs. Jackson." Grow up, quit dodging REAL issues.
7:37 You are so right! 5:40 You are so wrong! I dare you to stand on the public square and shout praises of jacko. Hope you don't do it on Saturday. People 'like me' might just throw vegetables at you.
7:55 don't worry 5:40 is too much a coward to stand anywhere in this county and defend Jackson. They talk a bunch of smack on this blog but wouldn't dare do it in public. Jackson is becoming more and more unpopular and people are more vocal than ever about it. 5:40 knows this and is frightened of who all would turn on them.
7:55 and 5:29
You two sound like a couple of kids who are trying to agitate someone into a fight. I'll not play your childish game. You know nothing about me, so don't assume that I would stand idly by and allow you to throw ANYTHING at me.
8:55 you're a quitter. I know more than you think. Glad you are quitting you are definitely a bore. I'm throwing and there is nothing you can do about it..haha
10:10
Please allow me to give you some good advice. Don't let me catch you throwing at me. Ok?
Stay out of my way and you won't have to worry about..OK??
You sound exactly like a silly kid. What are you going to say next? I'm wondering if you want to meet me after school for a fight. Or, do you just want to punch me in the chest with your index finger so I can sue you? Hilarious.
7:79 I am 7:55 you are 'throwing' lies at everyone! You just insited a fight 'punch me in the chest with your index finger'. You threatened to sue. Now let me see...what is the definition of a bully. Stop throwing cowardly crap and crawl in the hole you and jacko came form.
riddler..
You are so foolishly transparent. By the way, my question was whether or not you might want to try punching me in the chest with your index finger? It just sounded like that school yard scenario mentioned earlier. What a laugh you continue to be.
Tell me, don't you have anything better to do than to sit around reading this blog and waiting for those who wish they were "in charge" to tell you what to think? Perhaps a new hobby would serve you better. Just a suggestion.

don't see anything on here from riddler -
Must have been that message a few yarns back - must take a while to sink in past all that fat & bone.
All these amounts the commission is fritting away are beginning to add up including Garners $30,000 error. Its all coming out of the General Fund. Surely the commissioners wont have the audacity to try a tax hike on us to bring the General Fund balance up. This county Charter floating around is wanting all tax hikes to be voted on by the people. Maybe thats waht is needed to stop this outrageous spending and the commissioners never turning down their friends or connected ones. I signed the petition already. Gotta put a stop to this spending somehow.
I sure wish you were right about the $30,000.00 error but it is actually a $300,000.00 error that is having to be made up form the general fund.
Remember 8:24, you signed for a proposed County Charter. The charter hasn't been written yet.
3:23
I know that but at least this is a start on change. Never had a chance before.
323 Are you going to sneak in under door sill & sabotage it?
Gonna tie someone on the railoroad tracks? Times have changed - the train ain't what it used to be - a person might starve to death before another comes along.
Hasn't been a stage coach in the last hundred years. - Not sure how you'll adapt?? Guess you'll have to ride your twin the jackass around to figure things out.
3:23
Is that you SJ,Jr?
Such hatred! It's a bit frightening that people are lead like mindless sheep into this sort of thing. And we all know who the "good shepherd".
who is the good shepherd? TJ?
You know very well who I am referring to. The one who got all this mistrust and hatred started to begin with. Oh, but he is almost saintly and can do no wrong. I forgot.
Your hatred is showing again 10:17
11:33
No, you are confusing my utter disgust for hatred. I know of no man I hate as you would suggest.
I've got a question for you. When I "expose" someone based on what he or she is doing, why do you call that hatred?
to 8:13 because you never give anything in support of that "disgust" other than your feelings thus hatred is the result.
Give some viable support, such as specific actions instead of generalized condemnation, for the hatred and then it would be seen differently. I have yet to read one single entry by you that actually described a specific action. Your idea of exposure is simply a personal feeling you describe as being widely shared when they clearly are not.
813 You've been swimming in the cesspool so long you can't realate to anything else. Got flushed & find yourself perfectly content where you landed
howard..
Wrong once again. There's a vast difference between disgust and hatred. As I said, I know of no man I hate. Perhaps you missed that statement. Or maybe you chose to ignore it so that you would have a talking point with me. Either way, you are wrong.
Would you mind answering my question? Please don't ignore it. Why is it that when someone like me does some "exposing" it is characterized as hatred? Let me take that one step further. And when you guys do it you want to call it something akin to righteousness? Baloney (balogna)!
411 never far away from the banananny tree are you.
The FBI must have taken your mamma away while you were still nursing to have such hatred for investigators. Wab is like rotorooter - runnin the snake through the sewer makes you schitzoid (pronounce as you see fit). gonna gitchewtwo???
You never did answer my questions. I am left only to speculate that your condemnation of my exposing is a bit hypocritical of you. Right?
As I told you on another thread, I'll let you have the last word. Such drama.
To 4:11 and 7:56 who seems to be the same person. I did not ignore your question I just can't spend all my waking hours reading this blog and responding to you.
Your question was, "Why is it that when someone like me does some "exposing" it is characterized as hatred?"
This is my answer which you obviously don't like but for me is accurate and I'll expand on it a bit. You never give anything in support of that "disgust" other than your personal feelings thus hatred is the result. Strong feelings of dislike is the definition of hatred.
Give some viable support, such as specific actions instead of generalized condemnation, and then your statements would be seen differently. I have yet to read one single entry by you that actually "exposed" described a specific action. Your idea of exposure is simply a personal response that you describe as being widely shared when they clearly are not.
As for having the last word I have no clue what you're talking about and could care less who has the last word, I simply say what I want to and that's that.
howard..
Wrong yet again! I have made several "viable" statements on this blog about the condescension and arrogant attitude of those who think they know best how we should live and think. I'm surprised that a person as smart as you missed every single one of them.
No, my view is widely shared around here but not in your circle of friends.
Finally, let's go back over the difference between hatred and disgust. As I have said, I hate no man that I know of, but I certainly have disgust for arrogance in anyone. That doesn't mean I hate them simply ebcause they think themselves so smart. Does that clear up your misunderstanding? I hope so.
Howard, you are missing the point! 534 wears a pointed hat for a REASON - it's to disguise the fact that she has a pointed head - no where for the electrons & neurons to whiz around in circles, therefore a condition known as upsidedownitus - hate means love, arrogance means hate, & "can't stand" means too stupid to sit down & shut up.
anonymous...
Why do you call me a woman. The last time I checked, I was a male. Of course, you will make hay on that statement, won't you? Typical.
The funny thing about the difference between hatred and utter disgust is that BOTH of you missed the point. Could you pool your resources and buy a good dictionary? Perhaps a thesaurus would be better.
558 Wrong - we found the point - your head!
Who is we? Are you referring to the small band of malcontents who never shut up? I noticed that a couple of them were in this week's letters section. How impressive.
Who is I? A dunce that was there to deceive, Dr. Disillusion? Looks like your fire burned itself out - nothing left but smoke.
Asinine.
5:31
OK. So now we know you are calling Mr. Ross and Mr. MacDermind 'malcontents'. Fair warning, process is underway to identify slanderous posters.
Why would it be slanderous to call unhappy people malcontent?
Who mentioned Mr. Ross and Mr. McDermid other than you? I don't think anyone else did.
5:07
For starters, why call someone you dont know anything at all?
7:15
Since the only other LtEd that week was a 'thank you' that only leaves Ross and McDermind.
No matter, Julie - go see paint your toe nails.
HOw do you know the post was not in reference to the Tennesseean? Who is Julie? My mom might have named me Julius or Jules but certainly not Julie.
3:19
Because Idiot, you said "This week's". Tennessean is daily unless you didnt know.
Wrong my smarter-than-thou friend. The Sunday Tennesseean come out once a week. Perhaps I was referring to that one. Calm down.
7:18 No letters in the paper that day from anyone in Giles county. Dumb butt again.
5:16
You have got to be one of the most unhappy and bitter people i've ever encountered. Have you ever considered finding a less taxing hobby? All this drama and upset can't be good for your health. Besides, what good are you doing anybody other than providing entertainment for me? Think about it.
But my hobby is entertaining you and that makes me very happy.
tutt tuttt, tutt, dont' aggravate the snake.
She wanted to be the best fisher in the lake.
Thus that which is would be sooner or later.
After four years of school comes our master debaiter
riddler is back! Or is it Robert Frost? It's so hard to tell.
