Really - a full time Social Media presence for 'Mr. Shrink-flation" at our expense?!?

 Well, let's see what's going on here with Mayor Sam 'Mr. Shrink-flation' Joshi and new hires.

We got a Ex-Gov & NJ Dem-party Guy for $110,000

We got a publicist for $80,000

And, let's not forget this most offensive one - Bob 'See No Conflict" Diehl for $100,000.

Now, Big-boy pants needs a Manager of Social Media - probably another $60,000 or so. Don't know for sure but got an OPRA Request in for it.

Here's the job description:

Now, we're up to $350,000 or so of taxpayers money that benefits 'Big-boy Pants' and the Dem-party.

Anyhoo, what do I know - thought he handled his own self-promotion and flip-flops?

State of the Edison 2022 - 'Shrink-flation'

 Well, elections have consequences - Welcome to Edison's version of 'Shrink-flation'. 

A Mistake that should of been avoided and whose credibility doesn't even register on the credibility scale.

'Shrink-flation' - the Same Dem-party Nonsense, just with Less Contents.

Enjoy!

Anyhoo, enjoy the undemocratically hand-picked tool of the Dem-party powers that be after he sold out the People of Edison for a chance to climb-up the politically corrupt Dem-party ladder.

Grassroots Effort begins to put Wards on the ballot by petition

Well, the Edison Council voted down putting Wards on the November ballot and letting the residents decide how best they could be represented. This happened right after Mayor Sam 'Shrink-flation' Joshi, aka Big-boy pants flip-flopped on Wards after the election and put out out that embarrassing flip-flopping memo on Wards.

Those Council Members denying the People of Edison the opportunity to decide for themselves:

1. Council President Joe 'the Florist' Coyle, aka Mayor of Clara Barton
2. Council Vice President Joyce 'She's on the Council?' Ship-Freeman
3. Council Member John Poyner
4. Council Member Nishith Patel
5. Council Member Margot Harris

A meeting is planned for Monday, February 21, 2022 at 7:00PM at the American Legion Father and Son Post 435 - 43 Oakland Avenue, Edison, NJ for all those who support the Ward system and want to find out how they can help make this happen.

All who are interested should attend the meeting or make your interest known, if you cannot attend. It's important we get the signatures required to get the petition on the ballot. The local governing body will not support even considering an open and free exchange on how best we can be represented.

 

Anyhoo, you have an opportunity to get the representation you deserve and not what this one-party oligarchy wants you to have. Take advantage of it or you'll regret it - just like you should now be regretting that flip-flopping malleable marionette of a Mistake (who sold you out for a chance to climb-up that politically corrupt Dem-party ladder) you should have avoided.

Edison's version of 'Shrink-flation' makes his first hires - and here's the Cost to You

 Well, there you go. Mayor Sam 'Shrink-flation' Joshi, who sold out the People of Edison for a chance to climb up the politically corrupt Dem-party ladder - makes some new hires in his first month and a half of his on-the-job training. There's a Shocker.

Not for nothing but sure seems like these hires help 'Big-boy pants' and the Dem-party more than they help the People of Edison.

Though you have to admit Bob 'See No Conflict' Diehl getting paid $100,000 to help move the town forward is somewhat a Tad Bit disingenuous - guess he didn't do that for the last 21 years he was on the all-Dem Council but he's going to do it now for 'Big-boy pants' - for $100,000 of course. 

What a Guy! Duh!

Here's his new hires in the only way you can describe this guy - jokingly: 

Anyhoo, what do I know? I still can't figure out why he doesn't realize that he's just a young, malleable marionette being used by the powers that be as a tool and will no doubt be a one-term Mayor after they get what they want from him.

Geez, it's the Board of Ed - Not the Board of Undermining, Board of WhatsApp, Board of Who Gets Elected in November...

 Well, just watched the Board of Mythomania meeting and there's clearly a 4 to 4 debacle going on - none of which is to the benefit of the school district.

Leadership that clearly isn't equipped to be in leadership and it's showing in an ugly way.

Be that as it may, you really have to feel sorry for this guy:

Can you imagine having to sit there and listen to all that nonsense going on between and among the Board Members and try and keep a straight face?

Anyhoo, this is what happens when you let politics prevail over substance.

Let's Make A Diehl - a deal it is at $100,000

Well, just got the response to my OPRA Request for Sam 'Mr. Shrink-flation' Joshi's, aka Big-boy pants Chief of Staff Bob 'See No Conflict' Diehl's annual salary.

It's a slight increase from his Council pay at $12,000 but sure looks like a pension buster. 

His annual salary:

$100,000

Wow! Doesn't anybody Smell the Stink going on here?

 

Don't you just love it when Elections have Consequences and a plan comes together? 

Bob apparently does.

Anyhoo, guess that makes Bob a 'Big Deal' now - DUH!

Let's make a Diehl - Joshi appoints Bob 'See No Conflict' Diehl Chief of Staff

 Wee, saw this piece here in the Patch about Mayor Sam 'Mr. Shrink-flation' Joshi, aka Big-boy pants new appointments.

We already knew he hired Ray Alcantara as Administrative Officer for $110,000.00 and Cassidy Grom as Policy and Communication Coor for $80,000.00.

Really, is this how it works in this town? You reward your own with a job when they retire? Seriously, what is Bob Diehl going to contribute other than to his pension? Not for nothing but I always liked Bob Diehl, a pleasant enough person but he was totally ineffective as Council person unless you're into one-party rule. Granted, he had a knack for eloquently speaking but bull is still bull no matter how well it's spoken. 

Geez, you think he's going to help Big-boy pants get to the bottom of that 2017 Racist Flyer?

The guy was the Poster-child for Term Limits and should of gone away. He brings nothing to the table but a salary cost and more of the same Dem-party nonsense.

And you were wondering why he had nothing else to do but hang out at Council Meeting:

Only question left to ask is how much they're paying him or, more appropriately, rewarding him for being a loyal Dem-party soldier.

So, I made an OPRA Request and when I know, I'll let you know.

So much for in with the new with Joshi's administration. 

Yeah, Joshi's really going to change things in this town with Bob 'See No Conflict' Diehl.

Just as aside, somebody let me know if you see Charlie 'I Abstain' Tomaro showing up at Council Meetings.

Anyhoo, Chief of Staff - what a waste of taxpayer money - but if you think that's a waste of money, wait until Big-boy pants raises his current $49,000 salary.
