Here’s Fullerton City Manager Joe Felz hanging out with the recall crew while the signatures were being counted last week.
Thanks for the photo, Ricky.
Feeding the dinosaurs isn’t as much fun as it used to be.
agreed……..If you guys had any idea of that conversation…
4 public employees(that we can see) doing nothing….business as usual.
Only 2 city employees the rest were helping the ladies out so they could be home prior to midnight…O 3 in cluding Joe Felz….all the rest are RECALLERS…talk about an occupy!
what you see isn’t always what you get; remember, appearances can be deceiving – don’t “assume” any of the city employees are idle, including Felz (he was doing outreach, maybe – grin). Oh yeah, you do know the old story about “assume”, don’t you, anonymous?
Whew doggy…its been quite a year ladies ( I can call you that- your not that kind)…I got alot of calls on the stipper slime bar fiasco…allllooota calls..on that- ya did joe? Were they wondering where the bar is…or what?
Marlena- caption this!
Gee Joe what are you doing here so late?
I am just here trying to find out about them strippers. I am not a spy for McFuckNut…
lol I almost missed this!
Joe talking about how impressed he was with the occupiers.
Looks like a KGB agent to me, gathering intelligence for the regime, however slight it may be.
Well you know prior to this extinguished job with what 200 thou a year…and the only experience I had rpior to this was:
1- handing out balls through parks n rec
2-tour guide museum
yep …..tough job city manager…woooeee
“Can I get you a sup of coffee, Joe?”
“Damn, I left my lighter at home!”
Cinnamon is so smart…
Slidebar for lunch? I’m buying.
Considering the disastrous fiscal train wreck that has flattened the city under engineman Felz the past year, he may have provided the most hilarious caption himself:
He must have been fuming when the honking patrol racked up all those overtime hours.
Sssssuffering Sssssuckatash Christine! Why can’t we just get along?
Have you guys heard me doowop?
“I am not used to dealing with this caliber of women. Mommy help!!”
Joe I will be all up in your Kool-Aid for as long as it takes!!! with a smile even 🙂
“DAMN, ladies… I didn’t think you would get THAT many signatures!”
Nice. That looks like the winner so far One. LOL
Casual Thursday.
Felz: “Ya know Dan Bankhead, who knows way more about these recall things than I do, tells me A LOT of these signatures will be invalid.”
“You know my friend Larry Bennett said that we should be locking the doors to City Hall just in case the “thugs and bullies” gathering signatures try to get in”.
“However, I gotta tell you ladies, that if y’alls the criminals that these guys were worried about, than go ahead and phone the wifey and explain to her that I’m staying late at the office because I’m being held captive by Tony Bushala’s notorious gang of thugs and bullies”.
There are some bars named The Office – “honey, I’m working late at the Office” – heh heh heh
“I’m here to make sure no one wrote me down as a write-in candidate to be recalled. You can’t do that.”
“Ooooo…this is uhhhaaaaalooot more signatures than I was thinking. Maybe that Albert Pujols schtick to force my raise wasn’t such a good idea after all. I wonder if they’d keep me at $150K?”
“Wow…you guys actually did it…should I be worried…I mean…congratulations…I mean…don’t tell the three I said that…well, at least until after they’re recalled…I mean…oh hell, I don’t know what I mean. Where are my supporters from the council meetings?”
I think that about sums it up.
Nice SheBear…
Thanks, Marlena. Did I leave anything out? 😉
NO sher- bear- you saying: Remember me?….sums it up. You rule lady!
lol and hehehe I’ve been very fortunate and in good company with others who equally rule. I can’t say it enough: this was a team effort and we all got to shine together.
“I Joe ($200,000+/yr) air kiss you wonderful women, but how dare you enter our Devils’ playground and remove our exalted (raised or elevated, as in rank or character; of high station) leaders from this old and tired City.” -Joe
“(Thinking) Thank You.” -Joe
How long is it supposed to take to verify all the signatures?
I just put this info on the she-bear thread and am putting it here so it’s not missed. It’s come to my understanding that McKinkley has a she-bear gig set up with the Women’s Club here in Fullerton. I’ve spoken to one of their members, had her watch the youtube video from the Brea gig and it will be passed on to their president. I encourage others to politely let this group know why this gig is unacceptable.
I should add that the member requested contact through a mutual friend. I’m glad to see there is concern.
(I’m having trouble with the Open Season on the She-Bear thread. If my info on this upcoming gig didn’t post, can someone please copy my comment here and paste it on that thread for me? Thanks)
e-mail any information and I’ll do a special She Bear post.
We’ll call it – She Bear II: The Reincarnation
I’ll see what I can learn i.e. proposed date and location. I’ll keep you posted.
Sooooo,has my name popped up on any of these recall cards?
“ooooowwweeee, that fart was nastier than I thought it was gonna be. You should never fall for the “Pull my finger” schtick little ladies.~wink~”
Forward thinking Joe… I’m considering applying
for a couple of job openings. 1. Santa Ana Zoo-
where the animals are not the ones in charge. 2.
Barnum & Bailey Circus- similar work but better looking clowns. Also, is it ok to list you wonderful
ladies as references?
Why is Joe Felz standing around doing nothing?
“I made a hundred dollars just standing here.”
He makes about $900 per day of work, so do the math.
I was questioning why he’s standing there doing nothing. By his own admission City staff was being paid overtime to count signatures.
Dont forget there is a benefits and severance package, etc.
Understand that Joe Felz is a city manager with a fairly thin resume. He is basically a parks and rec manager kicked upstairs by the 3 dinosaurs to let them have their way with the redevelopment funds.
Felz knows that with a new city council, his contract may not be renewed and a new managerial accounting type with a penny pinching bent could replace him. So Joe was showing his impartiality by being available to the signature folks. Play both sides, Joe!
You know what’s scary about a guy like Joe Felz?
Here you have someone with BA and MA degrees in sociology managing a City budget over $200 million per year. I’m willing to bet he never even took Accounting 101 in college. Following graduation his entire adult life has been spent with the City of Fullerton managing museums, parks, cultural arts, and other fluff programs, none of which offer the requisite experience to be a steward of the public’s tax dollars.
So when the City’s accountants hand him a Balance Sheet or any other financial document, does he have the foggiest idea how to interpret them?
That is precisely why he is in the position he is in. $257 million dollars is alot of money. You see this alot in the corporate world where they install a token VP or CFO as the strings are pulled externally. It explains the racoon eyes.
You have not been part of the big corporate world lately. This is how it works. There are peeps who take care of all the financial stuff. He just gets their input. It takes more than the one person to run a corporation. Just because Joe is City Mananger does not mean, he knows it all. A good manager knows where to get input.
And, Yes, I like Joe. So far.
I like Joe, too. That doesn’t mean he isn’t a total lightweight in way over his head. Just look who promoted him.
Slime disease is contagious. The most common method of transmission is generally acomplished from spineless to spineless. Lightweights often succumb to the treatment. The recall is the only known cure.
Tha’s how come we giv’ good ole Joe a full year’s severance payout in his new contract!
“why didn’t you bring this to us this morning?”
Who does the FPD report to? Who holds them accountable?
We should just be glad he didn’t get a paper cut or he would’ve joined Sellers on paid medical leave.
That’s a better medical reason than Sellout ever had. What a fucking fraud.
“Want to help me play ‘Hide the $27 million overpayment’?
“When the Recall is successful, will the Gravy Train ever stop at the train depot again?”
‘Sorry folks, I’m going through the Redevelopment Blues.”
“Anyone want to hear and see a presentation about your Inner She-Bear?”
“Why are all the blondes on one side of the office?”
“Anyone want a date with Rincon? I’ll chaperone if needed.”
