    3. > Why would you be worried? You've never had a job where you've seen someone hauled off to the office and not know why, not be told, and then not start questioning yourself about if you've as well screwed up and when your turn is? I think all of us have. And the longer the anxieties go on, the longer the worry and the fear grows. > I have never been in any organization that will share the reprimands > of one person to the entire staff.

I have been in both types of organizations. Let me be more specific with that. I have worked for companies that have kept everything hush- hush, and then I have worked for companies that don't discuss specific cases, but have been blunt and clear about rules violations in general. I can honestly say the latter is the much more enjoyable company to be involved with. A company that states publicly termination reasons, earns employee respect for honesty and not trying to hide things. Proving issues aren't a personality conflict but rather a rules violation. > No removal procedure may be implemented against the same SC, or ASC, > within six months of a failed attempt, unless evidence is presented to > the Advisory Board that retaliatory actions are being taken, or > attempted, against the initiators of the original action. Evidence > that is proven false, may result in the removal of the CC. It's Very Important to remember that the current petition as has been stated on Board-L was made before the Bylaw. This means it doesn't fall under those rules as the NC has stated. I'm going to also assume that it means that another Petition not need to wait 6 months should someone want to do one. It's either part of the quoted motion, or it's not. It can't be both ways and straddling the fence. I also believe that now the Recall Motion Procedures have passed, that there does not need to be an attempt to settle an issue at the state level. That's nowhere in the Motion. <This doesn't mean I am against local solutions>. But again, this was before that Motion was passed. I think it's okay to be discussing Policy, as long as we leave people and personalities out of it. These are important issues. Derek Nichols Echols County
