Many City of Salisbury Maryland Employees In Fear For Their Jobs If They Don't Volunteer For Folked Festival
They were complaining they are all being forced to volunteer for the folk festival and are not being paid or given paid time off in return. No one has said they have to. But the department heads are using senior people to leak information and push rumors there will be reprisals if you don't volunteer. They were complaining they had to go to a meeting unpaid Thursday night about it at 7.
If they would have come forward sooner and signed a partition and let it be known there would have been no reprisals. But to cower and then complain about it garnishes no sympathy.
Ditto 10:08. Forced community service is flagrant violation. Any uncompensated time is violation. City is inviting trouble and deserve what they get. And I hope they're nailed if this is accurate.
Typical socialist evolution: 1. Talk about how you are for the people, being fair, and kind to everyone
2. Tell people how the other side are bullies, uncaring, and power hungry
3. Gain power and exert that power on others. Force them to do things or threaten them.
This is the danger when socialists gain power. When they don’t have power they are an amusing sideshow. When they get power they become abusive and dangerous.
If volunteering is mandatory with sanctions if you don't, then it's not really volunteering.
ReplyDeleteFunny enough these retaliation strongarm tactics are often employed when its time to donate to the United Way
ReplyDeleteMore than once I have been subtly threatened if I did not donate. I handed them a quarter and walked away.
Violation of labor laws. File a complaint and clean Day’s clock.

I'd love to sign that partition. Which wall do I use?
ReplyDeleteAAAAAAHHHHH no different than poultry companies that scheduled folks to "volunteer" at what was the Chicken Festival. It's a part of the job.

ReplyDelete9:55, funny I was thinking this very thing from when employee by the State of Maryland, years back.
Guess nothing has changed...thanks.
Local lawyers will be all over this.
ReplyDeleteYes yes!! If this is true someone will be willing to speak out. Let’s hear it! We finally can take down the city!
ReplyDeleteI’m sure some employees will volunteer, in an effort to brown nose and ass kiss, trying to impress someone,
ReplyDeleteNot true. If it were that bitch Corey would have snitched it out by now. That fat bitch can't do her job so she tries to get others in trouble.
