The Rumor Mill

There was an article in the paper today that O'Malley was not going to have a press conference ahead of the BPW meeting tomorrow.  I also read an article that 3 loads of disabled individuals showed up at a school where Franchot was going to be today but Franchot was and hour and a half late due to traffic on I70 (ya think?  or, do ya think he was warned they were there?)

The disabled are very worried they are going to get hit again and I am sure that O'Malley doesn't want them wheeling people in wheelchairs into the meeting tomorrow although I do think there will be some there because they were there 8/26th when I was there.

I know for a fact there are going to be layoffs ... I do not know the extent of them.  I doubt whether that will change overnight ... but I spoke with someone in the know today and they are coming.

I need to tell you that you cannot believe anything that any of the approved unions are telling you ... they lie.  We will know tomorrow and, I am telling you what we have been told by the union and what was in the newspaper over the weekend was a lie.  If I am proven correct I will certainly be gloating about it at the sunpaper thread. 

It's going to get worse before it gets better.  There is a 2 billion deficit for 2011 and I am hearing between 10-12% in pay cuts for us.  I also heard that would be in the form of reducing the work week back to 35.5 hours ... just rumors.
