I have been following up on some emails sent to me regarding my post yesterday regarding Amato and wanted to add a little update. After going back to their website I discovered that there are several thing that Amato COULD be doing to earn his 18k. Their website currently shows over 50 job openings. Why the hell can't he step in and help out? Makes sense right? These are tax payer and not corporate dollars that we are talking about. Shouldn't this guy do something to earn YOUR cash?.
With over 50 openings, it shows that NOBODY wants to work there. Some of these jobs have been open since NOVEMBER OF 2007. What this tells me is that the people on the board are scaring away resources needed to help these kids out. Even with unemployment numbers on the rise, people still don't want to work there.
Another question one needs to ask(and this is a big one) is where is the money going that was suppose to be used to fill these openings? These are obviously fully funded positions, so by not filling them there is a cash surplus going some where. So, is the money going to pay off special interest groups OR are these positions being put on hold (in which case the should be removed from their website, legally) to pay off the 18k a month they are giving Amato? Are the kids going without teachers & counselors because a few people on the board had their feelings hurt by Amato.
If only the local media had the balls and skill to put together a real story on this corrupt group.
