In Clark, we just hired someone else's problem who had an employee who would not or could not do the job.artfugginshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05364503656694166926noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-89492276867746173892009-08-17T19:33:15.528-05:002009-08-17T19:33:15.528-05:00It's almost as if Indy has become SuckerTown, ...It's almost as if Indy has become SuckerTown, hauling in high priced talent that does what it was hired to do, but in the end taxpayers end up buying out the contract and sending that talent on its way.<br /><br />Is another one about to happen?Downtown Indyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06239811599722585898noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-45047370505801973032009-08-17T14:56:13.855-05:002009-08-17T14:56:13.855-05:00Art, I was being sarcastic.

Don Welsh even praised Clark during his IVA presentation. Of course, I shouldn't be surprised that the ICVA found nothing wrong with what Clark was doing in Jacksonville.<br /><br />I also want to make it clear, that I don't know at all that Rae was a bad hire. What little I saw of him made me think he was very impressive. Obviously there is a lot more to the story though.Paul K.

I do agree that there have been too many unqualified porr performers hired by the city or municipal corporations. I am sure that we both could name some more.artfugginshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05364503656694166926noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-18862244552633604342009-08-17T08:05:04.391-05:002009-08-17T08:05:04.391-05:00Art,

He had terrible reviews in Philly, OSHA did a scathing inspection of his facility, and he was terminated after 18 months of a 3 year contract. Many of the reasons he was terminated in Philly are being exhibited now in Indy. They are unacceptable.artfugginshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05364503656694166926noreply@blogger.com
