Last week, we reported on the Florence Electric Departments' vote of no confidence. We feel this was poorly planned. We contacted several people on the list of signatures. None would speak. We even promised anonymity. This, we felt was very surprising. This proved one of two things. Either Richard Morrisey is so tyrannical and intimidating that all feared retaliation or most felt they had made some mistake. It was quite weird to be honest with you.
It is public knowledge there is an on-going sexual harassment lawsuit against FED. It is evident there are problems at FED that need to be addressed. But, until someone files a grievance, they gave the appearance, at least to the Times Daily of "disgruntled employees", to use their words. It is difficult to write this whole thing off as a few angry workers when around fifty people signed this document. Surely they were not all driving city cars.

Reguarding the No Confidence vote in your colum on Sept.23,the employees that took part in this are not all driving cars.Mr Morrisey called a meeting with some of these employees to explain the new policy reguarding the use of these vehicles. Some were not happy but aggreed to this policy. After a few days passed there was some misunderstanding with management Mr Morrisey called another meeting to which the employees told Mr Morrisey that it was not about the vehicles, it was his leadership and the way he addressed his employees. The third meeting was the same. These employess are not talking about vehicles. Giving the Mayor the benifit of not knowing about this, then Mr Morrisey may not be talking with the Mayor about the issues.
