ASSISTANT UNIT LEADERS / THE SUPERINTENDENT PROTECTS GOOD OLD BOYS / FRONT LINE STAFF SURPRISED THEY ARE LIED TO...AGAIN

The budget crisis in Connecticut has caused Governor Dannel Malloy to lay off dozens of state workers. This means that Connecticut Juvenile Training School also faced layoffs. It has been reported that Assistant Unit Leaders were laid off with the hope of coming back to CJTS, however with a demotion which means AULs would have to work on Units with Youth Service Officers. When the AULs came back to work the script was flipped, and now the once high and mighty AULs were just resentful and demoted people, crying about the injustice of their plight. Hey AULs you have jobs, so get your arse in gear.

Rumors from inside the CJTS Plantation are focusing on how the good old boys at CJTS are being protected by top administrators. For example the CJTS Superintendent informed the YSOs et al. that when AULs returned those supervisors would help alleviate the staff shortage... by working on the Units side by side with front line staff. The AULs demotion made it possible for them to receive their jobs back. However upon returning- rumor has it- the AULs did not want to work with YSOs. At this juncture sources told DCF Plantation Blog that AULs go into offices at work, put their feet on the desk and refuse to help YSOs on the Units. Say what ?? AULs are resentful of having to come back demoted and actually do some work for once. Oh let us not forget how most of the AULs are favorites of management and are mostly holed up in the Operations Unit, a bastion of favoritism and nepotism.  Seems as if the narrative never changes at CJTS. Like the Isley Brothers sang in their song Fight the Power..."i'm tired of all this bullshit going down.. hey."

Why are YSOs running around wailing and scratching heads over yet another lie told to them by management ? The head in the sand superintendent promised that AULs would work side by side with understaffed YSOs on Units at CJTS. When AULS did come back to work the promise was not delivered. People favored by management went back into the Operations Unit / girl's facility known as Pueblo Unit vowing not to do ANY work. It amazes this writer how grown men and women continually go for the fried horse manure served to them [YSOs] by management. For years one falsehood after another spoken by fork tongued management has been swallowed whole by YSOs. Is it just me or do YSOS feel like punching bags incapable of fighting back??
