What kind of remark is that?  Do you have a problem with people advocating for children?  Are you OK with the way kids are treated at HLA?

Did you ever stop to think that SOMEBODY has to do SOMETHING to help?

All you lame ducks out there who suffer from diffusion of responsibility will never understand what it means to advocate for those who cannot stand up for themselves.  I consider myself to have "gotten a life" when I picked up the yoke to do the yeoman's work that troubled parents have been unable to do for their own children.

Maybe you should "get a life."

Bill's "going away" party was yesterday.  He's gone as of today, I believe.

People who attended the party described it as "more like a wake."  After 11 and a half years of loyal service, all Len had to say to Bill was "Goodbye and good luck."  Nice sendoff, huh?

In any case, one staff member said (paraphrased) "Bill has been an arrogant blowhard for many years, but I couldn't help but feel sorry for the poor bastard."  That about sums it up.

I guess it just desserts though for a guy who played hatchet-man for the little general (now being referred to as "Napoleon" by his staff) for all those years.

Incidentally, I refer to "Napoleon" as "Little Stalin" due to the paranoid purging and "execution" by litigation.

Imagine all the dirty little secrets he knows about. Wonder what kind of deal they gave him to go away quietly? I know he's reading this and wondering why should I be the fall guy in this mess? I mean if he was right hand man to the big cheese he surely knows how to bury this place. Oh yeah I think he was SHH too. :razz:

Actually, they attempted to PREVENT him from leaving.  He was allegedly threatened that if he left he'd be "ruined in the community" and unable to "get a job around here."

Based on previous experiences with the HLA legal machine, he knows already full well what will happen if he talks.  

That being said, if he does choose to speak out, there are legal protections for whistle-blowers.  And, so long as one tells the truth, there is no worry about lawsuits.

It's been alleged more than once that Bill Gray has used shaky accounting practices for his own personal gain.  That may be reason enough for him to go away quietly.

To the best of my knowledge, the law only provides protection to whistleblowers if the company in question is a public company.  I believe private companies have the right to hire and fire at will.

I think you're right.  But I wasn't concerned with hire/fire because he already quit.  I was more thinking about if he blows the whistle on them for the "accounting irregularities."

She didn't post.  She's here reading, though.  I wrote her a PM this afternoon just to see what's up with her and how she feels about the recent developments at HLA.  She read it, but did not respond...
