— Without Native Americans, Would We Have Chicago As We Know It? Names like
DuSable, Marquette, and Joliet are cited in the history books. But it was
Native Americans who first set the foundation for Chicago to develop into a
major Midwestern metropolis. – Jesse Dukes (DIERSEN: My ancestors on my
father’s side immigrated in 1844 to Chicago from what is now Germany. They
worked in a brick factory for 10 years and then homesteaded a farm in
Crete.)
http://interactive.wbez.org/curiouscity/chicago-native-americans/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Mark
Liechty often finds himself wondering what Chicago was like hundreds of years
ago, before the city was officially incorporated in 1837, when thousands of
Native Americans were living in villages throughout the region.)

— Illinois employers’ using pre-employment drug tests for cannabis could face
legal challenges in 2020 – Cole Lauterbach (DIERSEN: Of course, pot pushers and
pot users will fight to remove all restrictions on the sale and use of pot. Pot
pushers and pot users want everyone to be stoned. How far will pot pushers and
pot users go to get rid of those who do not use pot?)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: The
new legislation gives employers a way to maintain a drug-free workplace, but
the employee would have to be impaired, not simply test positive for cannabis
in a drug screening. “An employer may consider an employee to be impaired or
under the influence of cannabis if the employer has a good faith belief that an
employee manifests specific, articulable symptoms while working that decrease
or lessen the employee’s performance of the duties or tasks of the employee’s
job position, including symptoms of the employee’s speech, physical dexterity, agility,
coordination, demeanor, irrational or unusual behavior, or negligence or
carelessness in operating equipment or machinery; disregard for the safety of
the employee or others, or involvement in any accident that results in serious
damage to equipment or property; disruption of a production or manufacturing
process; or carelessness that results in any injury to the employee or others,”
according to the law. The employer would also have to offer time for the worker
to appeal the matter.)
WASHINGTON TIMES
— Justice Department’s LGBTQ workers say administration’s stance on
protections harming morale – Jeff Mordock (DIERSEN: QUESTION: What harmed the
morale of my superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates in the federal
government who were Republican, White, male, and/or non-veteran? ANSWER:
Knowing that the federal government would get rid of them if they did not make
GS-13 (currently $98,198) by age 25, GS-14 (currently $116,040) by age 30,
GS-15 (currently $136,495) by age 35, and Senior Executive Service (currently
$165,500) by age 40. Extremely few federal employees make the aforesaid
promotion deadlines.)

NATIONAL REVIEW
— It’s a Wonderful Time to Be Alive – MICHAEL TANNER (DIERSEN: What are you
the most thankful for concerning your career? For me, it is my being born way
back in 1948. From what I see, ever-increasingly, it is more difficult for
those who share my demographics to have a successful career. If was 16 today,
the Post Office would not offer me a job like it did in 1966. If was 22 today,
IRS would not offer me a job like it did in 1971. If I was 23, 24, or 25 today,
IRS would not promote me like it did in 1972, 1973, and 1974. If was 31 today,
GAO would not offer me a job like it did in 1980. If I was 38 today, GAO would
not promote me like it did in 1986. Instead of me, those who are Democrat,
minority, female, younger, and/or veteran would be hired and promoted instead
of me.)
