—  If you have trouble affording things, Democrat and RINO leaders want you to blame Trump. What did you do to help you afford things? I took bad jobs that my critics/opponents would never have stooped to take. I earned a job-related bachelor’s degree, three job-related master’s degrees, six job-related professional certifications, and a job-related professional license. My critics/opponents remain furious a) that I could afford the expenses to earn the aforesaid degrees, b) that I could afford to buy a 1958 Chevrolet Bel Air when I was 16 in 1964, a new 1966 Pontiac Tempest Sprint when I was 17, a new 1968 Oldsmobile 442 when I was 19, a new 1969 Dodge Charger SE when I was 20, a new 1972 Corvette when I was 23, etc., and c) that I could afford to buy real estate when I was 24, 25, 27, 29, etc. – Dave Diersen
http://www.gopillinois.com
— What stopped you from affording more things? For me, it was my Democrat superiors wasting my career and getting rid of me. My Democrat Post Office superiors forced me to resign when I was 20 in 1969. My Democrat Firestone Store boss fired me when I was 22. My Democrat IRS superiors never promoted me beyond GS12. My Democrat GAO superiors forced me to take a $23,472/year (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer when I was 31. They delayed my promotions and never promoted me beyond GS-13. They always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance. They forced me to retire when I was 49. – Dave Diersen
http://www.gopillinois.com
— Trump says that America does not have plenty of talent. Do you have talent? According to my critics/opponents, I do not. What do you stress that shows your talent? I stress that I passed the CPA and Certified Internal Auditor examinations on my first attempt, that I became a licensed CPA, that I earned four other job-related professional certifications, and that I earned master’s degrees in business, accounting, and finance. I stress that despite my Democrat superiors’ tremendous efforts to get rid of me, I survived as a postal employee for almost 3 years, as an IRS employee for almost 9 years, and as a GAO employee for almost 18 years. I stress that my Democrat IRS superiors promoted me to GS-12 Step 5, currently $112,280/year and that my Democrat GAO superiors promoted me to GS-13 Step 10, currently $153,151/year.
http://www.gopillinois.com
— What entry-level jobs did you have? I had three. I earned a bachelor’s degree in management from NIU when I was 21 years old in 1970. My first entry-level job was a Retail Sales Manager for a Firestone Store. My salary was about $50,000/year in today’s dollars for a 44-hour workweek. In 1971, my second entry-level job was a GS-7 IRS Revenue Officer. The salary was $55,850/year in today’s dollars. To get that job, I had passed the Federal Service Entrance Examination. My taking graduate evening business courses at Loyola helped me get promoted to GS-9 ($68,315/year) in 1972, to GS-11 ($82,655/year) in 1973, and to GS-12 ($99,069/year) in 1974. I earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976. In 1980, my third entry-level job was a GS-9 Step 10 GAO Analyst. The salary was $88,808/year in today’s dollars. To get that job, I passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979 and almost earned a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul. Almost 18 years later, after earning a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980, after passing the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt in 1981, after becoming a licensed CPA in 1981, after earning four more professional certifications in 1990, 1994, 1996, and 1997, and after earning a master’s degree in financial markets and trading from IIT in 1997, my salary was $153,151/year in today’s dollars. – Dave Diersen
http://www.gopillinois.com
— Who do you know who voluntarily took a pay cut? I voluntarily took a downgrade from GS-12 Step 5 to GS-9 Step 10, that is, a $23,472/year (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO when I was 31 years old in 1980. Why did I do that? My Democrat IRS superiors had made it clear that they would never promote me to GS-13 even though I had earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976, passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, and almost completed the requirements for a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul. The GS-15 GAO Staff Manager (Bill) who arranged for my transfer assured me that I would be assigned to audits of IRS and soon promoted back up to GS-12 Step 5 and soon to GS-13. But almost immediately, Bill was replaced with a new Staff Manager (Dave) who despised me, if not hated me. Dave kept me off audits of IRS, gave me bad job assignments, gave me unfair performance expectations, and gave me unfair performance appraisals. Dave delayed my promotions back up to GS-11 Step 10 and to GS-12 Step 5. Dave stopped me from being promoted to GS-13. But then, in late 1985, Dave went on extended sick leave. That enabled Bill to assign me to audits of IRS and promote me to GS-13 in 1986. But then, Dave came back. Dave forced Bill to retire in 1987. Dave threw me off audits of IRS, gave me a very bad job assignment, gave me very unfair performance expectations, gave me a very unfair performance appraisal, and ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance in 1989. Dave took the aforesaid adverse actions against me a) even though I had earned a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980, passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt in 1981, and became a licensed CPA in 1981. Dave would not have taken the aforesaid adverse actions against me if had been a Democrat, minority, female, younger, or veteran. Dave would not have been able to take the aforesaid adverse actions against me if GAO had been unionized. GAO did not unionize until 2007. – Dave Diersen
