Perhaps if Rodden actually did his job as a safety officer, the city would never had been sued for sexual harrassment. The city employees NEVER recieved state mandated training for a simple class in sexual harrassment, and indirectly, Rodden can be blamed for NOT performing or setting up the mandated training that subjected the city to accountability as a result. In fact, there were several trainings that the city was cited for, for not having given to its employees that were state mandated that Rodden never gave to the employees. He was a terrible safety officer and quit as soon as the heat was put on the city thereby leaving others holding the bag.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5508937698219343429.post-30483631941060992712011-10-21T08:03:29.029-04:002011-10-21T08:03:29.029-04:00Jim Rodden was a lackey for the front office from ...Jim Rodden was a lackey for the front office from day one, and every employee at DPW knows it! Rodden claims he got his job by way of a "committee of the council' but anyone on the inside knows that T.R. pulled the strings. T.R.

Nice try Jim Rodden, but most employees dont buy the B.S. you are stating...by the way, Rodden must be looking for something from the incoming administration, he is in Buttkissing mode big time!

His answers were sound, but people were expecting a little more personality.<br /><br />I know Shayne and consider him a friend. He has an outgoing personality and perhaps should have included that personality in his remarks.<br /><br />I do not think his performance was bad. He came across as quite competent, albeit obviously nervous and sedate.<br /><br />Someone suggested he was playing a "no doubles defense". That is certainly plausible.Richard T.

Agree that it should be you and Shayne, agree that Shayne was acting too much like a lawyer, and no question that Ron came in fourth of four. As to who was number one and who was number two, it depends on the perspective. Lets also remember that as the frontrunner, Shayne has far more to lose and to a certain extent is playing a "no doubles" defense. <br /><br />As to the comment about the "good ole boys", its about time to give it up. Shayne understands that this is his election to lose and that come January 1 he is going to have to govern and be the mayor of all the people, new boys and girls, old boys and girls, short, tall, fat and thin. <br /><br />The sooner he starts mending fences and bringing people on board, the better for all concerned. There is too much work to do to refuse to listen to people who might be able to help., regardless of their affiliations.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5508937698219343429.post-11669004904332960572011-10-14T15:19:52.665-04:002011-10-14T15:19:52.665-04:00I also disagree with Mr. Rodden.
