I believe this issue could have been settled with out having things brought to this level. It has cost the Town money by paying a man, for not working, and I would guess that a lawyer has his bill running also. What is the end result ? Are we going to loose a good worker ? Has Bud got his nose out of joint because one of "his men" left the job, and maybe they had words. I imagine things got emotional, but then again I was not there. It does seem that Mr. Markel could have worked with these men to get things resolved. So why didn't he??
ReplyDeletejust a thought, this hearing may back fire !! More people may feel the way I do, and the powers that be may end up wishing they had done things in a different way. It will all come out in the wash...
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately, most people will be at work at 11:00 am on Monday!
ReplyDeleteWhy not have the hearing at the selectman's meeting that night?
