ENOUGH IS TOO MUCH...

EDUCATORS: HEAR THIS NOW !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


This week marks the first anniversary of the final fight for our careers, avocations and public education for all children. REGARDLESS OF YOUR OPINION ON THE MATTER. IF YOU ARE AN EDUCATOR AND  HAVE NOT YET BEEN SUSPENDED WITHOUT PAY. YOU HAVE NO CLUE. BUT DON'T BE SO FOOLISH AS TO THINK THIS FIGHT ISN'T COMING TO YOU.

This is the Fight of Our Professional Lives. Are You In or Out (for now)?

ALL SUSPENDED EDUCATORS:

TEACHERS, COUNSELORS, SITE ADMIN. AND CLASSIFIED. MAY BE  YOU KNOW SOMEONE?

YOU ARE NOT ALONE, NOT A VILLAIN, AND ARE BEING DENIED YOUR DUE PROCESS AND RIGHTS. 


I KNOW FROM PERSONAL EXPERIENCE AND IT IS HAPPENING  1) IN MOST DISTRICTS  2) RIGHT NOW TODAY. 


HUNDREDS OF EDUCATORS, ARE SUFFERING ALONE, MISINFORMED, LIED TO AND ALMOST ALL OF US ARE COINCIDENTALLY, AT THE TOP OF THE PAY SCALE!!! 


BUT UNLIKE ANY OTHER TIME WE ARE BEING SUSPENDED

WITH NO PAY AT ALL; BEFORE, DURING AND REGARDLESS OF THE DISTRICT'S INVESTIGATIONS" 


This is becoming just another way budget strapped or just mismanaged School Districts are reducing their overhead. Further, in swapping one experienced devoted educator for 1.80 (read two) first year college grad.s, the district can reduce the numbers of educators covered by union contract. If they keep this newbie on a year to year temporary contract, that newbie statistically will quit after the fourth year. Enough time and the union rank and file  numbers - and the benefits and salaries -  dwindle away. Public education suffers, the children suffer and ultimately our nations future.

UNFORTUNEATLY, CTA IS POWERLESS AND SEEMINGLY UNINTERESTED. 


THE CALIFORNIA GOVERNMENT OFFICES WHO ARE SUPPOSED TO PREVENT THESE THINGS ARE CRIPPLED BY LACK OF FUNDING. 


THE VAST MAJORITY OF CTA ATTORNEYS WILL NOT FULLY ATTEMPT TO DEFEND YOU. HERE'S WHY.

INFORMATION IS AVAILABLE SHOWING THESE ATTORNEYS PER AGREEMENT WITH THE CTA, ACTUALLY GET A PERCENTAGE OF CERTAIN SETTLEMENT CONTRACT SAVINGS ON TOP OF THE HOURS THEY BILL. 


THEY MAKE THEIR REAL MONEY WHEN YOU ARE ROBBED, SCARED AND VULNERABLE TO BAD ADVICE. IT HAPPENED TO ME AND THOUSANDS OF OTHERS.

ENOUGH IS TOO MUCH... WE HAVE FORMED A LOCAL SUPPORT GROUP THAT IS FIGHTING BACK AND WINNING. 


WE  WILL FIGHT WITH YOU AND YOU WITH US. WE ARE EDUCATORS LIKE YOU, GOING THROUGH THE SAME TYPES OF LIES AND MISTREATMENT. WE KNOW HOW YOU ARE FEELING.  WE HAVE HUGH AMOUNTS OF  READY INFORMATION. WE INVITE ONLY GOOD SOLID ATTORNEYS ON CONTINGENCY. WE SHARE OUR KNOWLEDGE AND RESORCES. 


WE DON'T HOWEVER, ENDORCE ANY COLLECTIVE INTERESTS OR ATTORNEYS. THIS ARTICLE IS NOT LEGAL ADVICE OR LEGAL OPINION. THERE ARE NO FEES INVOLVED WITH THE SUPPORT GROUP.

CALL AND JOIN US... RIGHT HERE RIGHT NOW - TODAY. (951) 732-7091 


TO PROTECT ALL OUR MEMBERS WE WILL PUT YOU THROUGH A SMALL SCREENING. TO MAKE SURE YOU ARE WHO YOU SAY YOU ARE. DON'T BE OFFENDED this process WILL PROTECT YOU TOO!

CALL THIS NUMBER. (951) 732-7091 LEAVE YOUR REAL NAME, RETURN NUMBER AND AS MUCH DETAIL ABOUT YOUR CIRCUMSTANCES AS POSSIBLE. 


FEAR NOT! WE WILL CHECK YOUR BACKGROUND THEN CONTACT YOU! CALLING IMPLIES CONSENT TO DO A LIMITED BACKGROUND CHECK.
(LIMITED MEANS NO FINANCIAL, CIVIL OR CRIMINAL INFORMATION.)

WE MUST DO THESE THINGS TO KEEP OUT THE DISTRICTS PRIVATE INVESTIGATORS, DISTRICT ADMINISTRATORS  OR OPPOSITION ATTORNEYS from MISREPRESENTING  THEMSELVES TO TRY AND GET INFORMATION. WE SUPPORT TRANSPARENCY, HOWEVER NOT NECESSARILY WITH THESE LIEING JACKAL'S


HANG TOUGH, DON'T RUN AND DON'T TALK TO ANYONE.


IF THREATENED WITH INSUBORDINATION FOR NOT TALKING, TELL THEM IT IS YOUR INTENT TO COOPERATE BUT YOU'VE BEEN ADVISED BY CTA TO WAIT FOR A CTA REPRESENTATIVE. IT SHOULD BE YOUR LOCAL PRESIDENT OR VICE PRESIDENT (My opinion). ACCORDING TO THE legal Precedents set by LYBARGER AND GARRITY, YOU HAVE THIS RIGHT. Please click on the links and read these for yourself. The rulings' legalese has been simplified for us.


SOME DISTRICT HR PERSONELL (INCLUDING P.I.s) WILL LIE AND THREATEN YOU TO GET WHAT THEY WANT. DON'T GIVE IT TO THEM. 


THEY WILL USE THE INFORMATION YOU PROVIDE AGAINST YOU ALMOST WITHOUT EXCEPTION!


I would like to thank the San Jose Municipal Employee's Association for putting an invaluable amount of germain information out on their web site for us. These are things your Local, or CTA attorney AREN'T likely to talk to you about. Mine didn't.

San Diego Education Report

STOP THE PRESS! SADLY, OUR WORST SUSPICIONS AND ALLEGATIONS ARE ONCE AGAIN PROVING TRUE! THIS TIME IN SAN DIEGO COUNTY. IT SEEMS THOUGH THAT THE EMERGING PATTERN OF ADMINISTRATIVE CORRUPTION IS MUCH LARGER AND POSSIBLY THE EARLY SIGNS OF A SOCIOLOGICAL PHENOMENON  ENDEMIC AND MAY BE DESTINED TO DESTROY THE PUBLIC SCHOOL SYSTEM FROM WITHIN. NO MATTER WHO YOU ARE IN EDUCATION. NO MATTER YOUR  BELIEFS. NO MATTER YOUR TENURE. ONCE AGAIN. THE SECOND YOU BECOME A VISIBLE nuisance OR THREAT, YOU WILL FIND YOURSELF BEING PUBLICLY MALIGNED, OFTEN BROUGHT UP ON CHARGES THAT ARE UTTER AND COMPLETE FALSEHOODS. THE MERIT OF WHICH ARE ENTIRELY WITHOUT A RATIONAL PREMISE. THE WHOLE SCENARIO REEKING OF ARROGANCE AND RETALIATION. ONLY, AT THE LOWEST COURT LEVELS, (ADMINISTRATIVE HEARINGS) WE ARE SEEING A SPIKE IN DECISIONS AGAINST THE HARD WORKING EDUCATOR. OFTEN DECIDED BY ATTORNEYS ASSIGNED AS ADMINISTRATIVE JUDGES AS POLITICAL FAVORS, WHO MAY NOT HAVE ANY EXPERIENCE IN LABOR OR EDUCATION LAW.


AS WITH MY CASE, CTA WILL QUITE PROBABLY SAY THAT  (1.)  WITH YOUR SITUATION BECAUSE THE MATTER IS BEING INVESTIGATED AS A CRIMINAL OFFENSE BY HR AND BOARD (TO SKIRT DISTRICT RESPOSIBILITIES TO TIMELINES AND THE EXPENSE OF MASTER TEACHERS AND RETRAINING,) YOU ARE NOT ENTITLED TO CTA LEGAL HELP (2.) UPON CLOSER INVESTIGATION MOST OF THESE PERSONAL ASSUALTS ON EDUCATORS ARE NOT TRUE. TWO THINGS I FOUND BUT ONLY AFTER I HAD BROUGHT ON A VERY GOOD PRIVATE CRIMINAL ATTORNEY:


(1.) THEY CAN'T HELP IF A POTENTIAL EXISTS FOR CRIMINAL CHARGES, FILED IN CRIMINAL COURT. THAT IS A COMMON MIS-CONCEPTION. IN TRUTH ACCORDING TO MY CTA DEFENSE ATTORNEY; EACH MEMBER CAN BE REPRESENTED BY a CTA ATTORNEY INCLUDING CRIMINAL INVESTIGATION UP TO A $5,OOO FEE LIMIT. 


(2.) BECAUSE ULTIMATELY, THE BEST THING FOR THE DISTRICT IS JUST HAVE YOU GO AWAY, AS HAPPENS SO OFTEN WITH ADMINISTRATORS THAT BECOME VICTIMS. SOMETIMES EVEN THE LOCAL DOESN'T WANT TO SPEND THE MONEY EITHER. EITHER OR BOTH, SCARING  THE VICTIM WITH  HALF-ASSED STATEMENTS ALWAYS ACCUSING THE VICTIM OF A FELONY (NO MATER HOW FAR FETCHED) AND AN ETHICS VIOLATION SO AS TO SEEM LIKE THEY HAVE GROUNDS TO FIRE YOU AND RUIN YOUR CAREER! NEXT, IF THEY'RE CALLED ON THEIR BLUFF, THEY MAY LIE OR EXAGGERATE TO POLICE HOPING TO GET THEM TO INVESTIGATE IN A FURTHER ATTEMPT TO ILLEGALLY COERCE  THE VICTIM INTO LEAVING BY FEAR.


THIS IS A SYSTEMATIC PROCESS THAT COMES FROM THEIR INSURANCE COMPANIES ACTUARY MODELS TO SAVE MONEY FOR BOTH! THEY ARE GAMBLING 100'S OF THOUSANDS OF TAXPAYERS' DOLLARS ON THE ESTABLISHED PATTERN THAT MOST VICTIMS WILL GIVE UP AND LEAVE.


THEY WILL CUT OFF YOUR PAY WITHOUT DUE PROCESS AND NEVER TELL YOU THAT YOU HAVE A RIGHT TO PURCHASE A BOND (PENNIES ON THE DOLLAR OF THE TOTAL AMOUNT) INSURING YOUR WILLINGNESS TO REPAY THE DISTRICT, IF CONVICTED. YOU WOULD THEREBY CONTINUE TO GET A PAYCHECK AND BENEFITS REGARDLESS OF HOW LONG THE THE DISTRICT CAN DRAG OUT THE PROCESS. OFTEN THE UNION LOCALS ARE UNAWARE OF THIS AND HR JUST WONT TELL YOU. ** AN IMPORTANT CAVEAT: I'VE BEEN SINCE TOLD THAT FINDING AN INSURER TO WRITE THE BOND IS EXTREMELY DIFFICULT. HOWEVER IT IS IN CALIFORNIA EDUCATION CODE! I WILL TRY FOR MYSELF AND REPORT BACK ON THE RESULTS. 


NEITHER WILL ANYONE TELL THE VICTIM THAT THEY HAVE THE RIGHT TO PETITION THE COURT FOR A RESTRAINING ORDER AGAINST THE H.R. MANAGER AS TO PREVENT FURTHER HARASSMENT.


WHY AM I GOING ON ABOUT THIS? IF THIS UNFOLDING TREND OF FIRING POLITICALLY ACTIVE EDUCATORS SO AS TO SILENCE THEM, USING LIES AND FEAR TO ACCOMPLISH PERSONAL VINDETTAS, RETAILIATION ESPECIALLY FOR WHISTLEBLOWING AND THE GENERAL IGNORANCE OF THE AVERAGE SCHOOL BOARD MEMBER; CONTINUES, THERES A GOOD CHANCE YOU COULD FALL VICTIM AS WELL.
