He has not said anything because he knows there is nothing they county can do to win this. He doesn't want to fight something for 10 years like Fat Head, knowing it is a losing battle. If we give them the money it will haunt this department forever.

Really?? Really?? You got that information where, pray tell?

The labor cabinet said they could not take the monies because it violated our collective bargaining agreement. That little clause that says they cannot change wages, hours or working conditions to be more specific. This was reaffirmed in circuit court and we were told that we had to negotiate in order to get our money back. That is what we are doing.

In a perfect world it would be great to think that we could go back to the time when the cars were free and gas was .98 cents a gallon and this was never an issue. You want to hear the mayor say $160.00? Like he has nothing better to do but address you personally.
