To: SECU Board of Directors
Dear Chairman Ayers,
Got the news that you and the Board felt banning this blog from the view of SECU employees would improve transparency at SECU.
Guess this is what you were trying to say when you blocked this blog from the SECU internal technology systems [not updated since 1983!]:
...a stumbling block to your foolish ambitions?
Thank you for the compliment!
What are the odds that any employee who accessed the blog on an SECU device are sent up to Raleigh for mandatory "re-education"?
ReplyDeleteThe Credit Union for as long as I’ve known has been a grassroots organization. And the cornerstone for those roots has always been the local branch advisory boards. Is there no way that they can at least be exposed to this “other side” of the story instead of the controlled narrative that is coming down from on high? I know this will be more difficult now that the powers that be control the advisory board meeting agendas rather than allowing local branches to dictate the content but there must be a way… word of mouth has always been the greatest asset of the Credit Union. It must be so now!
ReplyDeleteThank goodness employees have cellphones so blocking it from the network just sends the message that they don't want employees reading it therefore employees are more intrigued to want to read it.
ReplyDeleteThe Streisand Effect in action!
DeleteThe cornerstone for those roots. I wonder How much is being paid to Cornerstone for what they are doing? Would love to know this information and exactlywhat they are doing. Bet it's more than a few dollars!
ReplyDeleteThey will not disclose just like in the annual report they didn't disclose Jim Hays salary.
DeleteWe certainly became “dumb” about 18 months ago. We never needed a consultant in the past SECU had enough smart and trusted folks that worked together to address any issues and problem solve (think SECURE). But I’ve always heard you hire a consultant when you don’t know what you’re doing!
DeleteSpeaking of blocking, we were told could use the new gym. Guess what, nope can't because we don't work in The Tower. Another perk just for Ops folks. Who wanted a gym in first place? We survived 85 years without one but now we need one as a perk but for only a select few. I have to pay to go to the Y instead of just driving a few more miles down the road for a free one built using the members money.
ReplyDeleteThey probably would have let you in if your employee number starts with a 4 and you have the right job title. If you're a 0, 1, or 2, that means you worked under Blaine/Lord and cannot be trusted under the Hayes regime and you should not defile their fancy gym equipment with your disgusting body fluids.
