On Small-scale ShopKo proposed in Brodhead

Posted on January 1 at 11:01 a.m. ( Suggest removal )

What does Shopko mean when it says "the equivalent of 17 full time jobs"?? Is that equal to 34 part time positions, so they don't have to pay benefits?

@teapartysal- I just realized this. Seeing as you own my work computer, as your taxes paid for it, I do need a new printer ink cartridge. I still have to print DPI reports. Its kinda hard to find tho as my printer is obsolete and I have limited working hours. I also shouldn't be looking online during working hours. I will even take just the black one as I'm not allowed to have a color one. Thanks

@teapartysal- We have to use computers at school as we have been directed to communicate with other staff this way. It is a paper and printer money saving issue. Also my printer is about 10 years old and there is no money to replace it. E-mail is also faster than phoning somebody or interupting a teacher in the classroom. We also have to use a web based server right now as our school server is not big enough, and there is no money to improve it. So yes I am on the internet too everyday. I don't hate my job and I love the kids. I have been strictly told by the admins. that I am not to go past my stated hours. So there are times that I am working into personal time just to get what needs to be done due to staffing cuts. As a non-union employee I have paid over $500 a month in insurance years before Walker decided I needed to pay some more. So yes, I am a middle class person that is being beat to death by this economy. I am part of the other 1/2 and it would be nice to be able to go out in public without you guys ripping on me and my tax sucking job.

As a school employee, it is just common sense, that you would report anybody viewing porn on their classroom/office computer. There are strict student/employee computer rules already in place in our district. (But there also isn't a day that some sort of spam crap pops up on my work computer that the filter hasn't caught.) As far as convicted felons-you do everything in your power to limit the danger in your kids lives-why on earth would you want to expose your child to that possible safety issue. Common sense again. That felon, when they did the crime, gave up a lot of rights. Its no different than allowing concealed carry in the state capitol after spending billions on homeland security. Hello, common sense. Or the number of kids that could, and have been labeled sex offenders, for having sex with their girl/boyfriends. Instead of the parent getting involved with the kid and discussing sex/birth control, they get all ticked off and call the cops-yep a new sex offender. Yep a missed opportunity for common sense. It really disgusts me that this site is so negative and hateful of the schools.

Not when the CEO in Madison makes something in the area of $200,000 a year. I also am burned out on the pink ribbon campaigns.

I think he's a loose cannon. You can have a lot of fun without offending everyone in your path.

My grandaughters are scheduled to forever... Mom has them in dance 2-3x a week, basketball, softball, club softball,church, vacation bible school, basketball camp, dance camp, competition dance, etc, etc... I feel bad for them as they don't have anytime to be themselves or spend time with family. They are wonderful kids but they will be so burned out by the time they hit high school they won't want to be in anything ever again.
