— I retired at 34 with $3 million – here are 5 downsides of early retirement – Sam Dogen
https://www.usatoday.com/story/money/2019/06/24/early-retirement-5-downsides-no-one-tells-you/1553587001/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: 1) You may suffer from an identity crisis. One of the most common questions people ask when they first meet each other is: “What do you do for a living?” When you’ve spent at least a decade working in any job, you may find it incredibly jolting to no longer be identified as the marketing expert, the investment professional or the management consultant. It was only after I left my job that I realized how obsessed I was with my profession. I often wondered: How is the business doing without me? I was there for 11 years. Were they really able to survive without my expertise? But after months of no emails or phone calls begging for me to come back, I finally accepted the fact that I was no longer needed. . . 3) People may treat you like a misfit. Maybe it’s because retiring early is unconventional. Or maybe they’re secretly jealous you’re not grinding away at a day job. Whatever the reason, people won’t always give you the same amount of respect as they would to a working-class citizen. Eventually, I grew tired of explaining why I retired early or that I wasn’t a trust fund kid. To keep the discussion simple and regain a social identity, I’d simply say I was a writer and tennis coach.)

DAILY HERALD
— OUTSTANDING: Towns should send a message on marijuana – Bill Deckard, Winfield
https://www.dailyherald.com/discuss/20190624/towns-should-send-a-message-on-marijuana
(FROM THE LETTER: So, recreational marijuana will soon be legal in Illinois. But as the Daily Herald helpfully reminds us in their lead article on June 17 and in their editorial on June 19, there’s nothing to stop local cities, towns or villages from outlawing the sale of marijuana within their own city limits. Communities have done just that with things like video gambling and various “adult” businesses, so why not add marijuana to the list? Wouldn’t it be great if a significant number of Illinois communities chose not to profit from this deadly trade? If you are a city council member and have opposed the legalization of marijuana, why not do the courageous thing and vote against allowing its sale in your jurisdiction? As for the rest of us, let’s let our city officials know where we stand. One of the worst things about legalizing marijuana is the message it sends to young people, that getting high is no big deal. Keeping it off the store shelves in your municipality may mean foregoing a few tax dollars, but it will get the message to your children that smoking dope is not a good thing.)

— Wait, Where Did Our New Hire Go? An abrupt change of heart after saying yes to a job can have career repercussions years later—here’s how to navigate this delicate decision – Sue Shellenbarger (DIERSEN: How many job offers did you have when you earned your bachelor’s degree? I accepted the only job offer that I got, it was from Firestone’s regional office: Retail Sales Manager in Firestone’s Chicago Heights store. Employers were discouraged from offering me a job because I was draft bait. They did not believe that my application for a financial hardship draft deferment would be approved. My Firestone job did not really require a college degree. The store manager disapproved of my following demographics: Republican, draft avoider, German American, and Missouri Synod Lutheran. He refused to let me start until I passed a probationary period working for the Firestone Store in Gary, Indiana. After I had worked for him for 7 months, he rudely fired me when I gave him my 2-week notice that I had accepted a job offer from Oldsmobile.)

I did yard work and delivered newspapers 1962-1964; washed dishes 1964-1966; and cleaned golf shoes, chipped slag, and pumped gasoline during the summer of 1966. What work experience did you gain while you attended college? I delivered mail 1966-1969 and worked on an automobile assembly line and as a security guard in 1970.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: 1. Get work experience in high school (and college, if you go). Ironically, the most important first step may have nothing to college. The best way to build work skills is to work. The best way to find out what kind of work you like (and hate) is to work. The best way to inform your postsecondary choices is to work. Get whatever work experiences you can—site visits, job shadows, client-related projects, internships and summer jobs. Try to get paid where you can—you’ll need the money. A growing number of high schools are using the Imblaze app from Big Picture to manage student internships. Over 14 million college students use the Handshake network to find internships (and then jobs) with more than 800 corporate partners.)

But by then, because of age discrimination, I was far too old to have a successful career in accounting. If could do it over again, I would have majored in accounting at NIU, got my master’s degree in accounting at DePaul much sooner, and passed the CPA examination much sooner.)

— Living near marijuana dispensaries makes youth more likely to use it, study finds (DIERSEN: Your mayor and your city council members and your county board chairman and your county board members should ASAP call for a vote on the sale of pot and ASAP announce that they will vote against the sale of pot. I urge Wheaton Mayor Phil Suess and Wheaton City Council members Michael Barbier, Erica Bray-Parker, Suzanne Fitch, John K. Rutledge, and Todd Scalzo and the new North District Council member (soon to be Christopher J. Zaruba) to a) call for a vote on the sale of pot in Wheaton ASAP and b) vote NO on the sale of pot in Wheaton.

DAILY HERALD
— Legalized marijuana and the workplace – Marcy Traxler (DIERSEN: The more pot that you use, the more impaired that you are. The more booze that you drink, the more impaired that you are. Pot impairs you far longer than booze. Employers should not tolerate any kind of impairment.)
https://www.dailyherald.com/business/20190620/legalized-marijuana-and-the-workplace
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Used versus impaired So how will this impact a business and how it approaches policy? Illinois statute prohibits discrimination against employees for testing positive for marijuana. The upshot is employers cannot rescind a job offer or terminate an employee for a positive drug test. How will this impact employers that want to hire or fire at will? For employers, a key issue involving marijuana is not legalization, but workplace safety. The takeaway is that it is more important than ever to make the distinction between an employee having used marijuana versus the employee being impaired on the job. Having come from an Employee Assistance Program (EAP) background, I think the most progressive companies have addressed this very issue and developed Drug Free Work Place and Safety Program policies to include training for supervisors to observe and document employees that have unsafe practices or exhibit behaviors and signs of drug use.)

FED SMITH
— Bill Resurfaces to Expedite Process of Firing Federal Employees – Ian Smith (DIERSEN: Constructively, to force a federal employee to take early retirement or to resign is to fire that employee. My Democrat GAO superiors forced me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997 when I was 49. My Democrat GAO and IRS superiors forced me to take a $19,568 (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980 when I was 31. My Democrat Post Office superiors forced me to resign in 1969 when I was 20. Of course, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes use the aforesaid to hint/imply/argue/shout that given all the work experience, education, professional certifications, and the professional license that I have, I must have been far worse than an “underperforming federal employee,” I must have been a White supremacist, Nazi, KKK member, hater, racist, sexist, bigot, and even worse things. Needless-to-say, I should sue my critics/opponents, sue their operatives, and sue their dupes.) 
https://www.fedsmith.com/2019/06/20/bill-resurfaces-expedite-process-firing-federal-employees/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: “Government employees should be held to the same standards as private sector employees, yet it is nearly impossible to fire bureaucrats for failing to do their jobs,” said Senator Perdue. “Right now, it can take more than a year to fire or replace a civil service employee, even for poor performance or misconduct. With a $22 trillion debt crisis, we cannot afford to hold onto bureaucrats who aren’t doing their jobs. Since President Trump took office, more than 4,300 bad actors have been fired, demoted, or suspended at the VA. It’s time to expand those efforts and address problems across the entire federal government.” Congressman Loudermilk added, “Working for the United States federal government is an honor and privilege, and most federal employees cherish this opportunity and desire to serve the American people. Unfortunately, many underperforming federal employees feel entitled to their positions and treat them as their right. The solution to this issue is the MERIT Act. I thank my friend and colleague, Senator Perdue, for leading the charge on this important reform.” It was last introduced in 2018 in both the House and Senate but ultimately failed to advance.)

At the start of 1989, a) to retaliate against me for my becoming an active member in a class action lawsuit that charged them with reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation, b) to punish me for my avoiding the draft, and c) to punish my wife and I for giving up trying to have children, not adopting, and not becoming foster parents, my Democrat GAO superiors abruptly and rudely threw me off audits of IRS and assigned me to an audit of the Department of Defense 1990 ammunition budget request in Rock Island. SEE: https://www.gao.gov/assets/150/148194.pdf Instead of me, my GAO superiors should have assigned one of my many coworkers who had military experience and wanted the assignment. They painted me as having an unfair advantage to work on audits of IRS because I had worked for IRS for almost 9 years. Overwhelmingly, my GAO superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates had very little or no prior work experience when GAO hired them.)

— U.S. Rep. Sean Casten backs Trump impeachment inquiry, sparking campaign issue in once strongly Republican district – RICK PEARSON
https://www.chicagotribune.com/politics/ct-sean-casten-donald-trump-impeachment-20190620-cle5i6byj5cjlkxb3pegoc3tpu-story.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Casten was one of two Democrats to flip traditionally Republican seats in 2018, defeating six-term Republican U.S. Rep. Peter Roskam of Wheaton 54 percent to 46 percent, a margin of 22,556 votes out of more than 315,000 ballots cast in the 6th Congressional District. The district includes what once was the heart of suburban Republicanism. But GOP support in DuPage County has been gradually eroding — in 2016 a majority of DuPage voters backed Democrat Hillary Clinton for president, and in 2018 they supported Democrat J.B. Pritzker for governor. Casten becomes the third House Democrat from a competitive district to back an impeachment inquiry in recent days, joining U.S. Reps. Katie Porter of California and Tom Malinowski of New Jersey. They are among 44 legislators the DCCC says represent districts that are key to maintaining a House majority in 2020. U.S. Rep. Lauren Underwood of Naperville, the other Democrat who flipped an Illinois suburban seat in 2018 by defeating Republican U.S. Rep. Randy Hultgren of Plano, has supported the House leadership efforts to further investigations into Trump in lieu of opening impeachment proceedings.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Today, groups can be public (anyone can join at any time); private (you can request to join, but must be admitted by a moderator); and “secret” — the type you can only find if someone in the group invites you. . .Another described a secret group of people who live in deep “red” areas of the country and struggled with their communities and families after the 2016 election. “It’s been the only thing keeping me sane,” the member told me, “and definitely one of the main reasons I haven’t left FB.” . . . Keeping a group secret is the most efficient way to keep a group “in line,” whatever that might mean for a particular set of people. . . The “best” groups are the smallest and most secret because they’re cloaked from both the online and offline world — places where both myself and so many of the women I spoke to for this article feel invisible, unvalued, or objectified. The right group can provide the opposite of all that: a place where your voice feels visible, your opinion is valued, and your body is secondary — or discussed on your own terms.)

— 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.)

— Limited number of pot shops to sell recreational marijuana in Illinois – Ben Jordan (DIERSEN: Who is taking the lead to stop the sale of pot a) in your municipality and b) in the unincorporated areas of your county? 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.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.)

https://www.jdsupra.com/legalnews/time-for-paranoia-the-legalization-of-38360/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Once recreational sales begin on January 1, 2020, the state will generate billions of dollars in revenue. And, while Illinois lawmakers—and many of their constituents—are feeling “high” over the passage of the bill, many employers are left hungry for more information and paranoid about the ramifications and impact the new legislation will have on the workplace.)

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.)
