DLSE employee files grievance against Deputy Chief Denise Padres, then Padres suspends employee for using emails about telework/union activities!

Is there anything Denise Padres will not bend over for? Victor Jurado off-duty? Angela Bradstreet on-duty?

Padres suspended this DLSE employee, who has had an unblemished thirty (30)+ years in state service, for two (2) weeks. Padres put this employee on the beach because telework was requested, DLSE refused it, a subsequent grievance was filed, emails were exchanged, and then WHAM! DLSE employee suspended for union activity using the state's email system.

How come DLSE cannot apply that same type of discipline with the email exchanges of Vanessa Holton and Lloyd Aubrey? Labor Standards has no labor standards: unfair, uneven, unrepentant all the time...welcome to DLSE.

Santa Ana Deputy Labor Commissioner refused business cards; so far, no one charged, arrested, or disciplined for taxpayer-paid CMS millions-$ thievery

These are the official fecal matters of DIR, DLSE, and LWDA: Richard Munoz, Anthony Mischel, Vanessa Holton, Steve McGinty, Angela Bradstreet, John Rea, John Duncan, Robert Roginson, Robert Jones, Victoria Bradshaw: otherwise known as the Feces 10.  Most are lackey lawyers or political appointees, thus adding to their stink.

They do nothing to the guilty parties of CMS, the taxpayer-paid, multi-million dollar abortion that's officially listed as junk.  Not one *sshole has been charged/disciplined with that fiasco, but some DLC cannot order business cards because there's no money to pay for them.  No oversight, no accountability, and certainly no responsibility taken for CMS.  Not one of Feces 10 will provide any real numbers as to the true cost of CMS to the taxpayer.  The Feces 10 will continue to do what they do best, collect their paychecks, stink up the joint, and provide a disservice to the taxpayers of California

All these fecal matters do is wait for the Golden Bear to crap into their direct deposit accounts once a month; that pretty much sums up their usefulness to the taxpayers of California.

Angela Bradstreet: even with her IQ, JD, and bank account, is she merely a mid-level flunkie for GAS and Vicky Bradshaw?

If the DLSE wanted to pull back their action against Miles Locker, then they could. Much like a court, the prosecution can withdraw their complaint as long as it has not been decided (either by a judge or a jury). This February, the taxpayers of California celebrated their 2-year anniversary of Miles Locker being terminated from public service. What ever happened to the douchebags that fired him? Vicky Bradshaw is still employed, John Rea is on her left udder, Robert Jones is on her right udder, and Anthony Mischel is still collecting his paycheck. DIRt lead grifter lawyer Vanessa Holton is still there, ever the collective mess that she is.

Like any tool (blunt instrument), she's only guided by whoever's handling her: Susan Kennedy, Wal Mart, Boeing, etc? As far as I can tell, her bigshot law degree, her fat bank account, and her big IQ have amounted to nothing at DLSE: she's yet to decide anything on her own. Morons tell her that phone calls will fix that Corrales abortion, so she tells conference deputies to make phone calls. Morons tell her not to settle with the blogger, so she doesn't settle (and the DLSE subsequently loses in court..again). Morons tell her to support that taxpayer-paid, multi-million dollar abortion called CMS, and she does what a good ho's supposed to do: please her pimps.

I'm sure Morons are telling her not to deal with Miles Locker, but she'd be real smart not to listen to those Morons; those are the same Morons that are constantly putting her in a trick-box. Yeah, she's so smart, she can't even tell when she's getting played. This is the big difference between street smarts and book smarts. She went to Berkeley law School and she can't keep from getting played?

Here's a small list of why Angela Bradstreet should not be confirmed by the Senate as Labor Commissioner:
1) She continues to waste millions of taxpayers dollars on CMS
2) Through her two (2) page "excuse" letter about the yet-to-be-built Santa Ana safety barrier, her professional snubbing of Assembly Member Van Tran discredits this agency
3) She's a corporate shill for Brinker Restaurant Corp.
4) She (chief state labor law enforcement officer) offers biased opinions on private litigation
5) She's too incompetent to currently fix the problems identified in the Corrales lawsuit
6) She promoted Denise Padres (hearing officer of Hartwig/precedent decision on meal & rest period [penalty v. wage]) to Deputy Chief
7) She continues to protect Hearing Officer Vicki Tamoush, even after Boeing's seven (7) page complaint against Tamoush

and finally,

8) Outside of Wal Mart & Brinker, Angela Bradstreet has done nothing to improve either this agency or how it serves the employee & employer; she's a waste of taxpayer-paid public service

She doesn't deserve the job because the taxpayers of California deserve better than her. The Senate confirmation committee owes this much to the taxpayers.

What would happen if Badstreet, Bradshaw, Fryer, Culbeaux, & Holton were in charge of the DMV.....

Several months ago, I asked a certain jackass as to why the DLSE has failed to post overtime, commission, and vacation supplemental attachments to the wage claim website, since Labor Commissioner Jackass Badstreet wants "perfected" claims to adhere to the effing she received in the Corrales decision. To this date, Badstreet hasn't done sh*t to comply with Corrales: she's about as useless as pearls on a pig....oops, sorry Angela.

To this date, the A-holes have ignored my request in improving customer service to those filing claims related to vacation, commisions & overtime...like it affects the one supplying the helpful hint. This is about her absolute failure in taking care of the People of California, but since employers don't use these supplemental forms, and our Division has been staffed with pro-employer political appointee butt-licks, there isn't much hope that an employee will get the kind of customer service that employers receive.

The A-holes have continued to ignore this issue, even though I also raised this issue when that other jackass, Lupe Almaraz, gave his dipsh*t atta-girl/atta-boy speech at the 2006 Van Nuys Wage Claim training (that really wasn't training). Here's a hint, management losers-don't tell me that you appreciate my work: just shut your mouths (no one wants to hear your crapola) and do what's in the best interest of the Division, not your careers. I've never met a bigger bunch of candy-assed losers in my life.

During this governor's budget crisis, the legal team of the DIR rec'd approval to appeal the judge's decision in blogger's constitutional protections

My lawyer just rec'd the appeal paperwork today, which means that the turds at OD-Legal received financial approval to continue this fight. More intentional taxpayer waste, more taxpayer-paid abuse & misuse of state time, resources, and money. Judge Fell allowed everything they (basically) wanted into court record, and the babies are still crying to have their appeal.

I don't want to hear about Governor Schwarzenegger's financial woes when he's appointing constitutional violators like Lupe Almaraz to a do-nothing position at $132,000+ per year, nor do I want to hear about our agency whining about unfilled positions due to budget woes.

These fiscal retards created the budget mess, these political turds decided to violate the US Constitution, and these bureaucratic jackasses couldn't resolve their way out of a paper bag.

DIR's Office of the Director-Legal Unit. 1st Class losers and 3rd Rate lawyers (definitely not ready for the private sector)

Well, the morons at OD-Legal are wasting taxpayers funds yet again. Chief homewrecker Counsel Vanessa Holton, Asst. Chief Counsel Steve McGinty, and Flunkie Richard Munoz are crying about the judge's proposed decision. These morons still don't understand the 1st Amendment. They have an endless bank account because it's the taxpayers that are footing the bill!

Can you imagine if Vanessa Holton had to personally tap Lloyd Aubrey's bank account to fund this witch-hunt? Why aren't these morons doing the job that they are paid to do, which is to lose in front of state Adminstrative Law Judges? Oh wait, we don't have the decision on Miles' fate just yet, but it's coming.

Why is the Office of the Director-Legal Unit fighting some dipshit blogger? Why is so much money being thrown at all of these OD-Legal morons, authorized to continue this losing battle? Which #1 moron is authorizing OD-Legal to continue this battle? Is it our top secretary, Victoria Bradshaw? Is it that other moron Robert Jones (who can't read meal & rest periods), or is it someone else? OD-Legal cannot shit in the woods without an instruction manual, so who is pulling their strings? In any event, every time those morons file a court document is just another opportunity for them to get beat. It's too bad that the judge cannot fine them for wasting the court's time and wasting the taxpayer's money for such intentional & consistent losses. Unfortunately for Vanessa Holton, this is not (any sort of) a husband stealing contest; it's a 1st Amendment issue. These jackasses don't care if they continuing losing, because the financial fraud, waste, and abuse is committed upon the taxpayer; not one DIR turd is telling them to halt and to cut their losses, because they have no losses; it's the taxpayer's loss.

I'm not sure if Vanessa Holton took any recent legal ethics classes, but is there any ethical connection to harassing a blogger exercising free speech, unrelated to DLSE's mission and stealing someone else's husband? I'm not really sure, so please have Vanessa click the 'comment' button and pontificate about this possible nexus. Typically, it's been my experience that an asshole at work is an asshole at home, but I'd really need a video camera at Greg Rupp's house to solidify my theory. Having Vanessa Holton as OD-Legal's Chief Counsel is like having Alberto Gonzales as our Attorney General....oh wait.

The harassment of the blogger continues...

The day after the blogger received the judge's decision in the trial against the DLSE & Lupe Almaraz, the DLSE smacked the blogger with another internal affairs investigation meeting set for September 7th.

The interrogators refused to divulge who typed the 8+ pages of single-spaced questions, but newly promoted Regional Manager trainee Eric Rood mentioned OD-Legal in an earlier conversation. If OD-Legal's involved, then you can bet those lard asses Vanessa Holton, Steve McGinty, Richard Munoz, and Anthony Mischel had their hands in this.

The issue involved a complaint sent to the Labor Commissioner because the claimant's case was dismissed at the settlement conference. Earlier, the claimant wrote a letter requesting a telephonic conference because he would be in Missouri. In actuality, the claimant was in Riverside and only packing his belongings to move to Missouri. Sitting at home in Riverside is quite different than being in Missouri, so it was dismissed. The claimant, Bryan Davenport, complained in a letter to the Labor Commissioner. Then, OD-Legal became involved, & then shit rolls downhill! Apparantly, putting coffee mugs in a box is enough for Regional Dumbshit Manager Abigael Calva to authorize a telephonic conference. Calva's given the green light to re-open the case. Maybe Calva's dumb/lazy ass can settle it, since she wants it opened. Her and that other moron Lupe Almaraz can do the DLSE-Wage Claims a huge favor and put a policy into play that explains the procedures and reasons why telephonic conferences should be granted at the settlement process, because right now, Calva & Almaraz have given the DLSE shit.

A complaint like this should have never been escalated to the point where OD-Legal drafted questions for two desk donkies, who then flew down from Nor Cal for this inquisition. By the way, Bob Brock was the same asshole who interrogated Bruce Broadwater about that Vicky Tamoush bullshit complaint against Jim Jackson concerning translators. Interrogate first, drum up/manufacture the evidence later....serving the public and ass-raping taxpayer funds...one inquisition at a time. Thanks to newly-installed Governator appointee Angela Bradstreet, the Labor Commissioner who authorized such taxpayer waste without so much as a smidgen of corroborative evidence before green-lighting and wasting such money.

Great job, Angie, you're fitting in quite well with the other wasteful retards.

What the heck is going on with Jim Culbeaux, Dan Hishijima, Jeff Seeman, CMS, and DLSE-Nor Cal? Do these comments "concern" Bradstreet?

Here's a little something that those turds attorneys in OD-Legal can corroborate, but the theory on OD-Legal investigations is similar to the theory on mushroom growth: feed them bullshit and keep them in the dark. Let's see if these morons can initiate, facilitate, and consumate an honest investigation that would benefit the taxpayers of California. If they're finished losing to the Blogger, then let's see what the DLSE/DIR morons can do with these comments:

Comment #1) Jim Culbeaux was hired at DIR as a student assistant by his sister Christine Baker. Christine was head of the IT Department, that at the time, was small, and was part of the Division of Labor Statistics and Research (DLSR). Jim Culbeaux majored in Forestery and has absolutely no knowledge in the computer industry. Christine Baker has ties to corrupt senators and politicians and has used this influence to push for Jim Culbeaux's promotions over the years. Jim Culbeaux was promoted to Data Processing Manager IV (DPM IV) when other Departments with much bigger and larger operations such as CalTrans did not have their Chief Information Officers above the DPM III level. There is not one successfull project that Jim Culbeaux can take credit for......posted by Anonymous : 9/02/2007 6:50 AM

Comment #2) Here's news from Nor Cal. I heard that last year Jim Culbeaux held exams for the Systems Software Specialist series I, II and III. Prior to the exams Jim Culbeaux and his accomplice Dan Nishijima asked certain individuals what questions they could answer so as to ask those same questions at the exams. As predicted only the individuals with advance knowledge of the questions made it to the lists. One such individual named Jeff Seeman was insulted by the offer and the outcome and thought is was unfair to the other individuals taking the exams and came forward and turned Jim Culbeaux and Dan Nishijima in. The exams were abolished and are being held again this time by the SPB. However nothing has been done to the perpetrators of this crime namely Jim Culbeaux and Dan Nishijima. Does this sound unique at DIR or has this happened many times before?...posted by Choclate Swirl : 9/02/2007 10:05 AM

Comment #3) Is Rea going to be put up at a Hotel at Taxpayer expense? Rea lives in Berkeley some 80 miles from where he is to report at Sacramento.Rea was given a office in Oakland (a stones throw from Berkeley), in the middle of the IT Department, a month ago by Mr. Culbeaux, manager of the failed CMS system. IT Department folks please report back if this office has been given up by Rea....posted by Anonymous : 8/11/2007 7:27 AM

Comment #4) WE KNOW ABOUT JIM CULBEAUX, REA'S UNDERLING AND THE CREATOR OF THE CMS SYSTEM FIASCO. WE ARE AMAZED AT HIS INSIDIOUSNESS IN DIVERTING THE BLAME ONTO DLSE STAFF AND REA....posted by Anonymous : 8/11/2007 6:29 PM

Comment #5) They are still paying big money to the private consultants to fix the failed CMS. The consultants are working with at the IT site(near close friends, Clubeaux and Clement). I don't believe they are working for free. You see, they are still making big money for their Hansen on a computer system that they know it is not fixable since it is their creation. WHO IS RIPPING OFF TAXPAYERS WITH THIS PHONY IT CONSULTING WORK ??...posted by Anonymous : 8/12/2007 8:06 AM

Comment #6) It looks like; Mr. Rae does have an office in the IS Unit in the Oakland building. Rae will be close to those responsible for the CMS fiasco, Culbeaux, and the private IT consultants who created this non-functioning computer system. May be Culbeaux and other DLSE managers connected to the CMS need an attorney!...posted by Anonymous : 8/12/2007 3:58 PM

Comment #7) In regards to the comments above. I can bet Jim Culbeaux was not given a reprimand. He maintains strong ties to the insurance industry, Labor, Management and UC Berkeley. Jim Culbeaux's sister, Christine Baker of Committee on Health and Safety at DIR, funds many UC Berkeley studies, thru DIR funds. These studies can be skewed to suit the insurance industry, the AFL-CIO and others that Christine has connections and in return for favors for DIR. See article http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2007/08/11/BU4FRGLB5.DTL&hw=health+safety&sn=003&sc=396 in the San Francisco Chronicle. I bet Rea, Jones, Holton etc. will be gone before they can get close to Culbeaux, for any kind of reprimand....posted by Anonymous : 8/13/2007 7:05 AM
