Our health insurance isn't health insurance in the normal respect.....it now only insures us for the Catastrophic Health Care Emergency.Working harder and taking home less.noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5067361049814621194.post-54786910331155626812010-12-07T08:06:26.385-05:002010-12-07T08:06:26.385-05:00Best of luck, mates!

I was the only person there. THE ONLY PERSON THERE. However I did stand up for us and expressed my concerns for PD. I addressed issues of morale, subpar leadership (mainly the BOC and CEO) and the lack of support from our community. Chief O'Brien was also in attendance and was very receptive to my comments. If our community won't support us and we won't even stand up for ourselves, why should the BOC and CEO care what we have to say? Just some food for thought...I'm Ron Burgundy?https://www.blogger.com/profile/05668799874300882085noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5067361049814621194.post-41506428001363452282010-12-06T16:15:52.307-05:002010-12-06T16:15:52.307-05:00I will b there....can't give up got to fight o...I will b there....can't give up got to fight on!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5067361049814621194.post-29600572782665779012010-12-06T14:03:12.869-05:002010-12-06T14:03:12.869-05:00Thanks JD.
