ASSessment Center Procedures Full of HOLES |
by Blanca T. Greenwood, Esq.
PBA Executive Director
No, this is not a reprint, but a new story of how the Assessment Center (a private and independent entity which contracts with the County to
"assess" potential promotional people) screwed up again.
Most recently, a Lieutenants’ promotional list was posted and was laden with a string of blunders which carried serious implications. After all, the process had been completed and was ready for publication.

Delo Dishes |
by: Luis De Los
Santos, Sergeant-at-Arms
Hello, my readers.
I wish you the best for 2010 and hope that
all your resolutions and dreams become reality in this coming year.
Remember the question is not if you can do it, but how bad you want it.
I am so proud of this union (PBA) and the leadership of John Rivera.
Unlike other unions (there are a total of 10 that represent about 89% of
the County workforce), this union decided to fight and take our case to
a special magistrate. Our entire personnel at the PBA started to work
long hours to prepare for the hearings.

Remembering Frank Kovacs: Patriot, Public Servant and Friend |

What words would one use to describe a man who dedicated his life to the
service of others? Honorable? What would you say about a man who
enlisted in the Marine Corps while still in high school? Would you call
him patriotic? Or what would you say about a man who after serving his
country, decided to trade a Marine uniform for that of the Miami-Dade
Police Department?
