Some Tidbits from the Spook

The Spook is back from break!
  • DCFD Chief Dennis Rubin and his huge moustache - well-known for harassing and supporting the firing of numerous black firefighters for failure to adhere to DCFD's "clean-shaven policy," despite his own ragged, bushy lip adornment - was in court on Tuesday, October 7th 2008 to attack the Judge's decision regarding the hair policy of the DC Fire and EMS Division. Chief Rubin's moustache is not in compliance with the department's own policy.
  • Effective October 12, 2008, Deputy Fire Chief Michael Willis of the Risk Management Division will be transferred to Facilities along with DFC Joseph Deaton, Battalion FC Chris Jordan and Captain Vanessa Coleman.
  • We now have two Deputy Fire Chiefs with salaries of approximately $130,000 apiece; a Captain with a salary of appoximately $76,000, along with Fire Fighter Frelimo Simba with a salary of approximately $65,000 all at Facilities, instead of protecting the citizens and visitors of the District of Columbia!
  • DFC Michael Willis, Captain Coleman and Fire Fighter Simba were all sent there for punishment!!! all at the taxpayer's expense. Meanwhile, BFC Willie Flint has been promoted to replace DFC Michael Willis. all seemingly a result of gross mismanagement of person-power and being mighty loose with the citizenry's resources.
  • Fire Fighter Simba Frelimo, one of the casualties/victims in the wake of the Rosenbaum case, has received word of the results of the Federal Department of Justice investigation which found DCFD liable. F/F Frelimo is suing the Department for the harassment and racism he suffered. Mo' money, mo' money, mo' money from the taxpayers' pockets!
  • The Mayor and Councilmembers need to be called on the carpet and charged with accounting for this waste of money; instead they plan on taking the city's financial shorfall out on other city workers and critical departments as the Mayor suggests laying off another 400+ employees from the Department of Health and other agencies to help make up a $131 million deficit.
The above post has been amended to reflect corrections brought to the Spook's attention. Thanks all for your help and attention!

Dan Dugan is not a chief. Ray Sneed retired as a Lieutenant. The spook claims to be on the job - Really? Is your real name "Radio"???

"Chief Daniel Dugan and his huge moustache - well-known for harassing and supporting the firing of numerous black firefighters for failure to adhere to DCFD's "clean-shaven policy," despite his own ragged, bushy lip adornment"

Let's see...Dan Dugan is not a chief...he does not have a huge moustache which is ragged and bushy, in fact I believe he doesn't have a moustache at all...no one has been fired yet over the facial hair policy (that is being fought in court presently)...

And the reason that Ray Sneed was probably sent to defend the union's position in the facial hair issue is because he was the union president when this issue started and he would be very knowledgeable about this issue. In fact, he was the union president the past two times this issue was brought up by the department, so he is well aware of all aspects of the issue.

I'm hoping this last post was meant as a joke, because I don't think Dexter Manley is even that illiterate.

HISTORICAL FACT: BAD PEOPLE ONLY PAVE THE VACANCIES NEEDED FOR GOOD RELIEF. KNOW THAT, THE EYES OF THE SUPREME GOD ARE BEHOLDING THE EVILS OF MISMANAGEMENT AND INJUSTICE WHICH ARE SEEMINGLY GOING UNCHECKED IN YOUR AGENCY AND TO THE CITIZENS OF DC. REST ASSURE, WE'RE MONITORING EVERYTHING AND EVERYONE FOR PROPER ACCOUNTABILITY AND JUST BECAUSE SURVEILANCE IS NOT BEING PUBLICIZED DOESN'T MEAN PEOPLE ARE NOT BEING WATCHED. GOOD PEOPLE, CONTINUE TO STAND FOR GOODNESS, AND FOR THOSE THINGS WHICH ARE RIGHT AND NOBLE. A LOT OF OFFICIALS ARE GONNA TAKE A FINANCIAL HIT, AND LIKELY DO SOME TIME ALSO BEHIND THEIR ACTIONS. YOU IN TURN, WILL BE THE PRESERVATIVES WHICH WILL ULTIMATELY RISE ABOVE THE DOWNWARDLY SPIRALING GOVERNMENT AGENCY. PEOPLE OF TRUTH SHOULD NOT APOLIGIZED OR BE ASHAMED WHEN THEY ARE TREATED UNJUSTLY FOR DOING RIGHT. BUT THEY MUST STAND TALL AND CONTINUE TO DECLARE THE GLORIOUS WORKS OF THE ALMIGHTY GOD. EVILDOERS WILL SOON BE CUT DOWN. THE GODFATHER SAYS, WATCH, WAIT, WIN!

Your excuse is you can't shave everyday cause you'll get bumps?....We work every four days last time i checked that's not every day. Stop making excuses and do your damn job. Your excuses suck. There are people of every race in the military, they are required to be clean shaven, do you hear them whining and complaining? It doesn't matter what it is, you get an inch and you want a mile. If you dont like it find another job or start your own business and make your own F'n rules.
