I do not have a clue what it is like in the Sheriff's shoes. Nor do I wish too.
I have my own shoes and I like them, I am having fun. This has been the best time of my career. I not only have a squad to run, I also have been able to help more Deputies that I ever have in my career. I have learned a ton of stuff and meet good people every day. It has been more work than I thought it would be, but yes, I am having fun, thank you. Listen, I can leave any time, I have done enough time, but I want to help the Detention Deputies get what I, and others were promised many years and many Sheriff's ago.
I speak only of what I know, and Mike has fought hard for the PBA cause. I, as a Fellow PBA chapter president concern myself with Mikes PBA business. I would hope that his HCSO supervisors concern themselves with his HCSO performance. I have not herd them complain.
This should not be about Sheriff Gee or Mike or Me, or the PBA for that matter. this should be about you and your rights to have collective bargaining. This needs to be about making a decision to keep your right to collectively bargain. Sheriff Gee will not be the Sheriff forever, Mike will not always be the Chapter president and I most certainly will not be the Chapter President to many more years. Again this needs to be about making a decision about wether you want to give up rights you currently have.
