— Low-wage workers can’t afford two-bedroom rentals anywhere in Illinois, report says More than half of Chicago renters severely burdened by the cost of housing – Sara Freund 
https://chicago.curbed.com/2019/6/18/18683776/chicago-illinois-affordable-housing-rent-burden
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The average cost of utilities and rent for a two-bedroom apartment in Illinois is $1,084 per month (this number comes from HUD’s fair market rent figures). In order to afford that without rent burden would require earning at least $20.85 per hour (about $43,366 annually, assuming a 40-hour work week). In Illinois the minimum wage is set at $8.25, and at that rate workers would need to put in 101 hours per week to afford a two-bedroom. About 34 percent of people in the state rent and those that do have an average wage of $17.34 per hour.)

Because of the Democrats and the RINOs, the worst possible demographics to have include: Trump supporter, Protestant, conservative, patriotic, Republican, American, White, male, older, non-poor, gun owner, German American, draft avoider, and if your ancestors have been in America for a long time.)

— He didn’t have a computer growing up. Now he’s CEO of Google – Kaya Yurieff (DIERSEN: Ever-increasingly, Democrats and RINOs glorify, praise, and promote those who are or were citizens of foreign countries.)
https://www.cnn.com/2019/06/17/tech/sundar-pichai-google-ceo-boss-files/index.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Pichai wouldn’t own a dedicated computer until he moved to the United States and attended Stanford University on a scholarship. But then the rest was history. He graduated from Stanford with a master’s in engineering and later went on to get an MBA from the Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania. Pichai worked at Applied Materials and McKinsey before joining Google in 2004. There, he held a variety of roles, including overseeing Chrome, product chief of Google and head of the Android operating system. He became CEO in 2015. When asked if he believes the American dream is still alive, Pichai said he still thinks America is a “land of opportunity.” “I still think that’s true today,” he said. “But I think we need to work hard to make sure it is true.” A big part of that is ensuring immigrants have a path to succeed. Pichai has called on Congress to protect Dreamers and has advocated for high-skilled immigration.)

https://www.mystateline.com/news/local-news/illinois-truckers-held-to-high-standard-as-state-prepares-for-marijuana-legalization/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The Illinois Trucking Association says that although marijuana use will be legal shortly in the state, truck drivers need to be held to a high standard. Drivers will not be allowed to have any THC in their system. Leaders say legalization of the drug could put an extra strain on an industry that is already struggling to attract new workers. “We are concerned this may limit the limited pool that we already have and make it even smaller to get more drivers driving our trucks,” said Matt Hart, executive director of the Illinois Trucking Association. The trucking industry employs 300,000 people in Illinois.)

— Think you are unbiased? Think again – Farah Nasser (DIERSEN: Democrats and RINOs want everyone to be biased against those who are Trump supporters, Protestant, conservative, patriotic, Republican, American, White, male, older, rich, gun owners, German American, draft avoiders, and those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time.)
https://globalnews.ca/news/5382584/unconscious-bias-shakil-choudhury/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: An unconscious bias is a hidden or unintentional preference that usually has something do with our group identity — like our race, culture, or location — and it runs deep. The human brain takes in millions of pieces of information a second but only processes a handful. As our brain categorizes information and filters out the noise, it creates shortcuts, or unconscious bias. These shortcuts lead to assumptions that are hidden even from ourselves. Choudhury says unconscious bias is behind a lack of diversity in leadership positions in the workplaces due to “cultural cloning.” “Our tendency is to promote those who are most like the decision makers, like the people who have always been here,” said Choudhury. “Unconsciously we are drawn to people who talk like us, joke around like us, whose kids are part of the same hockey teams as us. Those are our in-group biases.” Unconscious bias is also a factor in determining who gets hired in the first place, says Choudhury.)

https://independentminute.com/2019/02/13/american-retailer-now-publicly-supporting-sharia-law-are-you-shopping-there-2/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: What needs to happen is this: any person who wants to come to America to start a new life is welcome if they legally apply for citizenship, learn the English language, prove they have a valuable skill or trade, and embrace western culture. To become an American citizen doesn’t mean you forget where you came from, but it does require you to renounce all that is un-American in your previous culture and work to preserve the new culture you have entered. But radical Muslims refuse to do that. And somehow Liberals are letting them get away with this. It’s time for Republicans to stand up to this shady business, call out those who publicly support Sharia law, and stop those who follow Sharia to the letter from becoming part of American culture. For now, a good place to start would be to boycott Macy’s. Are you in?)

I started in 1966 when I was 18 earning $16.15/hour in today’s dollars and ended in 1997 earning $127,654/year in today’s dollars. During those almost 30 years, I took job-related college courses during 22 of those years (1966-1983 and 1992-1997).

FORBES
— The Damage Of Lesser Damages In The Age Discrimination In Employment Act – Patricia Barnes (DIERSEN: All my critics/opponents, all their operatives, and all their dupes promote age discrimination a) because they want to get rid of those who are older than they are and/or b) because they want to curry favor with those who promote age discrimination.)
https://www.forbes.com/sites/patriciagbarnes/2019/06/12/the-damage-of-lesser-damages-in-the-age-discrimination-in-employment-act/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Age discrimination is the least profitable type of discrimination for workers. In other words, the potential amount of damages available to age discrimination victims is far lower than the amount of damages that are available to victims of other types of discrimination. This reality has terrible consequences for combating the problem, and surely contributes to the epidemic nature of age discrimination in America. Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 provides victims of discrimination based on race, sex, religion, color and national origin with a full menu of damages, including monetary, compensatory (i.e. damages for emotional distress), and punitive damages. Federal courts always award attorney fees to prevailing plaintiffs in Title VII cases. Not so the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967 (ADEA). The ADEA does not treat age discrimination like a serious civil rights violation. Instead, age discrimination is accorded the same severity as an employer’s failure to pay workers’ overtime or holiday pay. The damages provision of the ADEA is taken not from Title VII but from the Fair Labor Standards Act, a federal law that regulates the payment of wages by employers. The ADEA allows age discrimination victims to recover for monetary loss only, sometimes doubled if the plaintiff can prove “willful” discrimination. Like all civil rights laws, one of the functions of the ADEA is deterrence. The very existence of the law is supposed to discourage employers from engaging in age discrimination. But the lack of potentially big-ticket damages associated with compensatory and punitive damages detracts from the deterrence value of the ADEA. Worse, the ADEA does not guarantee an award of attorney fees to a winning plaintiff.)

CHICAGO TRIBUNE
— Are older workers job hoarding, hurting economy? 44% of young employees say graying workforce is a problem. – AP (DIERSEN: My GAO superiors and supervisors hinted/implied/argued/shouted that their Democrat employees who were younger, minority, female, and/or veteran wanted GAO to get rid of its Republican employees who were older, White, male, and/or non-veteran.) 
https://www.chicagotribune.com/business/ct-biz-older-workers-blocking-jobs-poll-20190606-story.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: ore older Americans are forgoing the concept of a traditional retirement at the age of 65, a trend that some younger workers aren’t particularly thrilled to see. A recent poll by The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research found that workers under the age of 50 were significantly more likely to view America’s aging workforce as a negative development when compared with their older counterparts. About 4 in 10 respondents ages 18 to 49 and 44% of the youngest respondents ages 18 to 29 said they consider the trend to be a bad thing for American workers. Just 14% of those age 60 and over said the same. “I don’t think in things like IT and medicine you’re as effective a worker (at 65 years old) as you are at 50,” says Katie Otting, a 29-year-old living in Southern California. “If some 65-year-old is in a position that he’s not ready to quit because he wants a better pension and there’s someone else ready to take that job, they’re not going to replace him.” An aging population, elevated health care costs and lingering financial uncertainty following the Great Recession all are believed to be contributing to America’s steadily graying workforce. Nearly 20% of Americans over the age of 65 were employed or actively looking for work last year, up from less than 12% two decades prior, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Through letter campaigns and petition drives, Mike Barbier, now a Wheaton city councilman, and his fellow South classmates enlisted the support of lawmakers who passed a bill signed by President Donald Trump last December to rename the post office after Williams. Barbier knew Williams as a social butterfly in high school. Shortly after graduation, Williams joined the Army, motivated by a call of duty after the Sept. 11 attacks.)

If I had not had a job-related bachelor’s degree, Firestone Stores would not have hired me in 1970, Oldsmobile would not have offered me a job in 1971, and IRS would not have hired me in 1971. If I had not been taking job-related graduate courses, IRS might not have promoted me in 1972, 1973, and 1974. If I had not earned a job-related master’s degree in 1976, if I had not passed the CPA examination in 1979, and if I had not almost completed the requirements for a second job-related master’s degree, GAO would not have hired me in 1980. If I had not completed the requirements for a second job-related master’s degree in 1980, passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination in 1981, and became a licensed CPA in 1981, GAO might not have promoted me in 1986. If I had not earned job-related professional certifications in 1990, 1994, 1996, and 1997 and completed the requirements for a third job-related master’s degree in 1997, my Democrat GAO superiors might have succeeded in forcing me to take their early retirement “offer” sooner than they did.)

— Conflicts of interest can be interesting in Joliet – BOB OKON
https://www.theherald-news.com/2019/06/07/okon-conflicts-of-interest-can-be-interesting-in-joliet/a5gw6tz/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Interim City Manager Martin Shanahan meets the job description to become the permanent city manager, the city council was advised last week. Interim City Attorney Chris Regis provided the opinion because the matter had been raised by at least one council member. Interestingly enough, Regis delivered the opinion moments before Mayor Bob O’Dekirk declared that city staff should not be involved in any application process or candidate search for a permanent city manager because it would be a conflict of interest. The theory is that since all city staff falls under the supervision of Shanahan as interim city manager, they have a conflict of interest in the selection of a new city manager. Therefore, city employees who normally would be involved in a city hiring process cannot be called upon to provide staff support for the council in a candidate search or even in a simple posting of the job. Apparently, no conflict of interest applied to Regis, however, in determining that Shanahan met the job qualifications, although Regis is a city employee who was advising the council on whether they could hire Shanahan for the job.)

All of the following should be lining up to speak out against pot at public hearings: Republican activists, Republican candidates, Republican elected officials, Republican party leaders, Republican major donors, Republican political consultants, business leaders, religious leaders, healthcare leaders, education leaders, law enforcement leaders, etc.) 
https://www.eagletribune.com/news/haverhill/pot-shop-supporters-picket-opponent-s-restaurant/article_4cd9e075-a0f1-5b5a-99b6-1937ebf4d0a5.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: A lawsuit filed against a business that plans to sell recreational marijuana brought about 20 protesters to Railroad Square late Saturday morning. They stood across the street from Mark’s Deli, whose owner along with two other plaintiffs has challenged the city’s decision to allow the opening of a pot shop in the now-vacant quarters of the Sons of Italy at 124 Washington St. The lawsuit alleges that allowing the shop violates the constitutional rights of nearby property owners, violates federal narcotics laws and is detrimental to Haverhill. “I believe strongly we need to get the underground economy into the mainstream,” said Douglas Edison, a longtime community activist who is running for City Council. “Why are we stopping it? You can’t just say ‘no’ to everything,” he said. Edison pointed out the shop will pay taxes to the city. “We need money for schools,” Edison added. Caroline Pineau, who already owns and operates the Yoga Tree at 90 Washington St., hopes to open the recreational marijuana store. “I’ve been fighting for this for 15 years,” said Michael Crawford of Marblehead. He called the lawsuit “frivolous.” A friend of his who suffered from mental health problems and addiction had a very positive outcome after he started using medicinal marijuana, Crawford said. “It turned his life around,” he said. Crawford wore a shirt bearing the message, “more weed, less greed.” Another City Council candidate, Nick Golden, said Pineau is being “unfairly targeted” by the lawsuit. “She represents the type of person and entrepreneur that we’re trying to attract,” said Golden, who is on the staff of state Rep. Lori Ehrlich, D-Marblehead. “I think it’s really important to support small business owners,” Christina Barbieri, a former Haverhill resident, said. She and others noted that possession of marijuana is now legal in Massachusetts and that Haverhill voters supported this change. The protesters held signs with messages such as “drop the lawsuit.” Many motorists driving by honked in support of the cause. A few people voiced their objection to having a pot shop in the city, Crawford said. One man confronted the protesters and called them “immature.” As he walked away from the group, he extended his two middle fingers. Two police officers were assigned to the demonstration, which remained orderly. Officer James Keenan advised the man who made the obscene gestures to not cause a disturbance. Jess Hileman, a lifelong Haverhill resident and longtime patron of Mark’s Deli, said he does not think the owner of the restaurant objects to having a pot shop in Haverhill. “He only opposes the location,” he said. Hileman also said he did not think it was fair that some of the protesters were depicting the owner as a bad guy. A patron at Mark’s Deli said the owner did not want to speak to the media. The lawsuit lists the plaintiffs as Bradford Brooks, a local realty professional; Lloyd Jennings, a contractor; and Steve Dimakis, owner of Mark’s Deli. Brooks and Jennings are described as trustees of L&B Realty Trust. Dimakis is identified as a trustee of the Evthokia Realty Trust.)

— School districts face scrutiny for hiring teacher who had peace officer’s license revoked. He’s now accused of sexually assaulting student. – Kali Venable

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Public records show that lies went unchecked during the hiring process for a former Victoria teacher and coach accused of sexually assaulting a student. James Christopher White, 34, was arrested in February on charges of sexual assault of a minor and improper relationship between an educator and student while working as a wrestling coach and special education teacher in Victoria. The charges, which are under review by prosecutors, came after he admitted that he attempted to have sexual intercourse with a 16-year-old student in a hotel room during a school-related function, according to court records and officials from the Victoria County Sheriff’s Office. A more detailed background check on White would have revealed red flags: the Texas Commission on Law Enforcement, or TCOLE, revoked his peace officer and jailer licenses in 2012. The action came after he was terminated and dishonorably discharged for untruthfulness or insubordination from Mathis and Orange Grove police departments, according to records from all three agencies.)

— So You Want To Hire A New Superintendent: What Does The FOIA Permit (And Require)? (DIERSEN: Nothing stops applicants from disclosing a) that they had applied, b) the documents that they submitted, c) if they will be interviewed or were interviewed, d) if they were eliminated, e) etc.) 
https://www.jdsupra.com/legalnews/so-you-want-to-hire-a-new-48064/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: “Personnel Search Committees” and the Screening Process: As for its actual search, the board could vote to create a personnel search committee. Such a committee, when formed with respect to an “executive level” position (such as a superintendent), is exempt in its entirety from the FOIA and its open meetings and notice/posting requirements. The appointment of such a personnel search committee is useful in that it protects the privacy rights of those being interviewed and avoids the need of the board to take official action in narrowing the field of candidates (even to the final recommended candidate) as part of the interview process. The FOIA also protects from disclosure any records of a personnel search committee which would reveal the identity of a candidate (without that candidate’s consent). . .Not all gatherings of a board committee ostensibly acting as a search committee will be considered exempt from the FOIA’s meetings and posting requirements. A personnel search committee is exempt from the FOIA’s requirements for only as long as it is engaging in activities protected by the search committee exception. Based upon the FOIA, the Freedom of Information Commission [“FOIC”] views the role of a personnel search committee for purposes of this FOIA’s exemption as limited to 1) reviewing resumes, 2) interviewing and screening candidates and 3) considering and recommending the selection and appointment of an individual for the position.)

My Democrat GAO superiors forced me to retire in 1997 when I was 49 years old, gave me unfair performance expectations and appraisals, always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes, did not promote me beyond GS-13, got rid of my mentor in 1987, kept me off audits of IRS for all but 3 of the almost 18 years that I worked for GAO, and forced me to take a $19,568 (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980. My Democrat IRS superiors did not promote me beyond GS-12, disallowed my education deductions in 1978, got rid of my mentor in 1975, and disallowed my partial day per diem claims in 1974. My Democrat Post Office superiors forced me resign in 1969 and disallowed my sick leave requests in 1969 and 1968. My aforesaid Democrat superiors would stress that the aforesaid adverse actions that they took against me directly benefited their employees who were poor, and especially their poor employees who were Democrat, minority, female, younger, and/or veteran.)

https://www.journal-topics.com/articles/local-officials-mull-marijuana-legalization-impacts/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Local municipal staffers and attorneys are scrambling to read and understand the 600-page bill legalizing recreational marijuana before its Jan. 1, 2020 effective date. The bill that passed in the Illinois House on the last day of the legislative session in Springfield, Friday, May 31, was passed by the Illinois Senate just two days before. Gov. J.B. Pritzker is expected to sign the bill, but marijuana remains illegal at the federal level. The bill gives some control to local municipalities, including creating zoning regulations and limiting dispensary options for operating, along with allowing for some new tax revenue for local communities. “First we have to read the law thoroughly,” Glenview Village President Jim Patterson said. “You can have one sentence (buried in the bill) throw it all away.” Patterson said he fully expects village trustees to consider and act on the bill by October, before it takes effect. Niles Village Manager Steve Vinezeano said a Tuesday, June 11 village board meeting has been scheduled for village staffers to present details about the bill to Niles trustees and discuss options. Vinezeano said 52 percent of Niles residents voted in a recent referendum in favor of the state legalizing recreational marijuana. “That doesn’t mean they want a dispensary down the block.” Vinezeano said firefighters, police, Family Services and community development officials all have concerns.)

— Evanston city clerk leaves meeting after aldermen vote to add additional FOIA officers – Genevieve Bookwalter (DIERSEN: Should I request the Illinois Attorney General Kwame Raoul to review Wheaton City Clerk Sharon Barrett-Hagen’s denial of my May 29, 2019 FOIA request for “All documents submitted by all applicants for the Wheaton North District City Council vacancy?” According to her June 4, 2019 email, “In accordance with the Open Meetings Act, on June 3, 2019 the City Council adjourned into closed session to review the documents submitted by the applicants for the Wheaton North District City Council vacancy and those documents were entered into and made a part of those minutes. Your request for the records referenced above is respectfully denied per Section 5 ILCS 140/2, Sec. 7 Exemptions (1) (1) “Minutes of meetings of public bodies closed to the public as provided in the Open Meetings Act until the public body makes the minutes available to the public under Section 2.06 of the Open Meetings Act.” The Illinois Election Code allows the public release of statements of candidacy when an individual chooses to run for an elected office. While the applicants in this case are not running for election, but rather are seeking to be appointed to a vacancy on the City Council, after reviewing State statutes, we believe it would be permissible to release the names and addresses of the applicants in response to your request, and that information is attached.” Of course, those who do not want anyone to see the documents support Barrett-Hagen’s denial.)

DAILY HERALD

https://www.dailyherald.com/article/20120120/news/701209725/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: In his application letter to Cronin, LeVan wrote that he was seeking the seat to help the chairman advance his agenda “for a more efficient, responsive and transparent government in DuPage County.” Bedrossian, 58, owns Bedrock Earthscapes, LLC, in Wheaton. He is a past board member of the DuPage Federation for Human Services and has volunteered for a variety of community service organizations. “I believe governmental organizations should be the very best possible stewards of their constituents’ tax dollars,” Bedrossian wrote in his application letter.)

— Documents challenge former SIU President Dunn’s denial of another ‘fast-track’ hire – GABRIEL NEELY-STREIT

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Documents obtained from Murray State University challenge former Southern Illinois University President Randy Dunn’s claim that he did nothing to “fast-track” the hiring of the son of a former SIU trustee while president of MSU. The documents, obtained by The Southern via the Kentucky Open Records Act, show Dunn signed a hiring process exemption, also known as a search waiver, to hire Tyson Manering — son of former SIU Trustee Donna Manering — as an international recruiter at MSU. The exemption allowed Murray State to hire Tyson Manering outside of its standard search and hiring protocols. Generally, filling a position like Manering’s would have required forming a search committee to vet applicants, interview top candidates, and collectively make a hire, MSU policy indicates. In this case, Manering was selected directly, via the exemption, 12 days before the international recruiter job was ever publicly posted, and more than two weeks before he submitted his online job application, records show.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: DuPage County Board Chairman Dan Cronin invites residents to attend a District 4 Candidate Forum on Tuesday, January 17, where 11 candidates seeking the nomination to fill the board vacancy, will have the opportunity to address the County Board members and the public. “I am delighted that so many residents are interested in serving on the County Board and am so far very impressed with the candidates’ credentials.

The Candidate Forum will be held from 6 to 8 p.m. Tuesday, Jan. 17, at the Auditorium of the JTK Administration Building, 421 N. County Farm Road, Wheaton.

— Here are some more tips on how to get your resume noticed – Ellen Phillips (DIERSEN: Of course, no one includes negatives in their resume. That is why application forms are used.) 
https://www.timesfreepress.com/news/business/aroundregion/story/2019/may/31/how-get-your-resume-noticed/495709/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Highlight your strengths and what is most relevant to the potential employer. Place the strongest and most relevant points first where they are more apt to be read in order to hook the reader. Match the needs of the hiring company. Review job postings online and in the newspapers for positions that interest you. Each listing will almost always have a brief blurb about the company and the position available. Read the job description closely, and use the key words listed in these ads, and match them to the bullet points in your resume. Tailor your resume to the position. Be positive. For instance, if you feel your past graduation date will subject you to age discrimination, leave it off the resume. Focus on the duties that do support your objective and curtail or omit irrelevant personal information like your race.)
