I know, I already posted a cartoon of this Chief of staff fiasco, but I must continue. This has to be balls out one of the most arrogant, self-centered, best use of cronism by city hall I have seen in a long time.<\/p>\n
I wonder how long it will take Jodi to get used to calling it Sioux Falls instead of KELOLAND?<\/p>\n
Yeah, Jodi always through softballs at Munson. What surprises me is why wasn’t she started at $72,000, (the starting pay) and then reviewed in a year for a raise? Why the FUCK would Munson offer her $98,000 right off the bat? Like she would turn down $72,000 ($44,000 a year raise from her current job)? She has NO government experience, NONE! Sure she has credentials, but a lot of people do. Makes you wonder if there is a Monica Lewinsky thing going on?<\/p>\n
And why was the council left out on this decision? At least shown resume’s with names blocked out or asked to submit questions that Dave could ask. This decision was made a LONG time ago, and nothing was going to stop good old crooked, lying Dave. I think it has a lot more to do with the tight knit group of SD GOP and the wealthy Schwann Family that Jodi comes from.<\/p>\n
This whole matter stinks, we can only hope her and Munson get caught with their hands in the cookie jar and we can be rid of both of them!<\/p>\n

This is an email I sent to my district’s councilor:<\/p>\n

Mr. Staggers-<\/p>\n
I have a few questions about the latest hiring of the Mayor’s chief of staff that I’m sure you can answer:<\/p>\n
1) Were you or any of the council members shown the resume’s of the people that were applying for the position? Even resume’s with the identities blocked out? And if not, Why?<\/p>\n
2) Did the Mayor ask you or any of the council members to submit questions that could be asked of the perspective applicants? And if not, Why?<\/p>\n
Time will tell if Jodi is right for the position, but what concerns me is the way she was so secretly hired, I felt the City Council should have played a bigger role. I also believe her salary is out of line with her experience.<\/p>\n
Thank You,
