What Kind Of ‘Training’ Is This?

To the Editor:

I read with amazement your follow up story this week about Ms Mason. Two months? It takes Chief Kehoe two months and longer to train an animal control officer? You have got to be kidding! The town should take that bill for $29,000 out of his paycheck!

From the substance of your story and his own comments it seems more like Chief Kehoe is hard at work creating a hostile work environment for a subordinate who prevailed against the injustice he was trying to get away with.

The selectmen should take a careful look at just what “training” the chief has going on with Ms Mason before he walks the town into a civil suit this time. I just hope this time he is smart enough not to be taping any of the conversations. How much more of this blatant arrogance and vindictiveness does Ms Mason have to be subjected to?
