It's NOT Working Wrong Way Walker!

There is a reason why we built a system of seniority and worker protections for public employees, to prevent the spoils system of employment, the hiring of incompetent cronies. But Wrong Way Walker has dismantled that system and like everything else this complete  "Rascal" done, it's NOT Working!

EXCERPT: ‘A Cesspool’

The MilES office allegations didn’t surprise Marty Beil, executive director of AFSCME District Council 24. He said there’s been a huge change in workplace culture at state worksites since Act 10’s implementation.

“Every state work site is a cesspool,” Beil told the Shepherd. “I’m not being facetious here. Workers are concerned with money and benefits but what has been happening at the worksites, the culture that has been established, has been more disruptive than these workers not receiving adequate pay increases.”

Beil said bullying and intimidation are rampant throughout state agencies. He said supervisors try to bully and harass outspoken workers so that they’ll quit or ultimately be fired. Worksites are short staffed, leading to high amounts of overtime and threats to privatize operations, he said.

“It’s like somebody switched a switch in 2011 and these supervisors and administrators all became ogres,” Beil said.

Also common is the lowering of qualifications for professional jobs, Beil said. For example, the Milwaukee Bureau of Child Welfare, run by the state since 2002, [Correction: the state took over this program in 1998.] has faced complaints about its handling of suspected cases of child abuse and high staff turnover. In response, it’s changed its hiring requirements for those who take initial assessments of child abuse. Previously, access and initial assessment specialists were required to be social workers. Now, those with a high school diploma can be considered for the job.

“What message does that send to the rest of the workers who have master’s degrees there?” Beil said. “And who’s going to get blamed when a person who has a high school diploma makes a wrong decision about suspected child abuse?”

I was proud to be a Wisco Kid you see.
We were the Laboratory of Democracy.
With goodwill, progress, a government clean and pure.
But Corrupticons have come to Rule.
With Felons and Cronies in a big Cesspool.

AndI don’t feel like I’m from here anymore. 

Cesspool, Exactly!
