Ratings to go Public?

We're sure they would only be used for good, right? Not as fodder for lawsuits and to damage criminal cases based on entirely subjective determinations?
  • In one corner stands the media and attorney general Lisa Madigan. In the other stands one of the most powerful unions in the state.

    The Illinois Press Association says its top priority for the Illinois General Assembly’s upcoming veto session is preventing an override of Gov. Pat Quinn’s veto of House Bill 5154, which would bar disclosure of government employee performance evaluations in response to Freedom of Information Act requests.

  • ....Cara Smith, public access counselor for Madigan’s office, said the attorney general opposes the bill. Madigan’s office also opposed amendments made by Quinn, who exempted performance evaluations for law enforcement officials.
And who was the FOP-endorsed candidate just a few weeks ago? We'd look it up on the FOP website, but it appears to be down. Still.

Does anyone who reads this blog truly believe that your performance ratings can't be accessed from someone from within, and released to the media? No one in public service should have any expectations of privacy with regard to dept. records.
Eventually, the so-called 'lists' of people on the Job with the highest log# investigations filed against them will be made public too, either by the FOIA or by someone within who will sell it. You've all seen what's going on with 'Wikileaks.'
If that shit can get out, everything else is fair game.

I'm disgusted seeing cops and firemen standing near the polling places handing out flyers for dumbocRATS. What the hell are you thinking? Did the table scraps your hack bosses throw you make it worth it?

These idiots raise your taxes and take the money and piss it away. They are haters of freedom and the Constitution. They would fit in better in a communist dictatorship and you dick heads support and work for them?

Anyone who works for the criminal organization known as the Democratic Machine should take a flying leap into Lake Michigan.

FOP endorsed brady for Governor. I highly doubt they were dumb enough to not support Madigan. Like them or not if you piss off the madigans in this state u are fucked. Mike Madigan has controlled the entire state from his southwest side office for over 20 yrs and has a huge say in pension issues etc. To go against him or his daughter publicly would be a big mistake. I assume the FOP would endorse him and his daughter simply for the sake of not wanting to piss him off. realistically no one has even presented a challenge to him in 20 plus yrs so why even endorse someone with ZERO chance? Even if he sucks balls keep him on your side. We have enough enemies already

Federal worker's evaluations cannot be released under the Federal Privacy Act.

Why would I want the drivel written about me by some clout mope publicized?

How about starting 360 degree evaluations for all government employees. This way subordinates can evaluate supervision as well.

Crossword puzzle knowledge: excellent

Favoritism towards cronies: outstanding

Leadership ability: don't make me laugh

Get the picture?
