Topic: A Broader View / Will Barack Obama and his new administration have an impact on corrections issues?

I am still waiting for the change. Just as bad now as before, maybe a little worse.

Topic: The Club House / Public or Private?

This law that has been put forth in Ohio is not going to be pretty. The officals want it so they can save $$$$, and the public wants it so it will reduce spending and open private sector jobs.

For over twenty years that I have been in ODRC we have heard rumor after rumor about privitization now the threat looks real.

AFSME/OCSEA has backed the Dems for years, lets see if the Dems will back us now that we need them.

Topic: The Club House / Logbooks

Shakey, that is why we will be working for free 3.076 hours a pay period. The union sold us down the river, they did not want to fight for us, and this was the only way for them not to get hurt themselves. They even figured a way to get more $$ for themselves by making Interims dues paying union members. I would have rather taken a pay cut and make them suffer also. Then maybe in 3 years they would have fought for us a little harder.

I also thought it was funny how during the election and contract negotiations the union shut down the forum. I guess they did not want people sharing their thoughts with others. Socialism at its best, Obama must be proud of Eddie Parks.

Well, I guess you have an answer now. In Ohio, Gov. Strickland wants to let thousands out of prison because of the budget. So much for Obama’s help. If the state passes this new sentencing law prisons will be shut down and people will lose their jobs. The funny thing is, our union supported Strickland and Obama. They are the biggest threat to our jobs in my 20 years in ODR&C.

How many feel we are about to get hit again? With the Strickland now saying he will have to use the rainy day fund to balance this years budget, there will have to be more cuts in 2010. So much for change and hope. It is business as usual.
