If Judges have a term/age limit why not all County Employees? New employees are needed in all organizations - our County is no different. Use of modern tech. would make for less travel to and from Norristown and employees would be where they are supposed to be at any given time. Yes, so many things would be possible.. but then who would be the judge of the whole system - the Commissioners??? They have a term limit - that might be one answer.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4189189510360665362.post-29310558643185406282007-08-14T08:07:00.000-07:002007-08-14T08:07:00.000-07:00Unfortunately people who have climbed the ladder t...Unfortunately people who have climbed the ladder to the supervisory positions have done so through who they know and time in, rather than qualifications and being able to perform the job.

Then all of a sudden the head of the department decides to retire. The commissioners hire him as a consultant at $3500.00 a week with benefits. QUESTION: Who did the investigation? Did the commissioners hire him to cover up something? Who else is involved with the free labor? If the District Attorneys office did the investigation, what does that say for the gentleman running for the commissioners job in Nov. There is something wrong here, and I believe your courthouse reporters saying is right on. Give us the facts Ms. Gibbons PLEASE.

Then the commissioners let him resign instead of firing him. Then he's hired for what you say "around $3500.00 a week". I understand there was some kind of investigation. Was this done by the District Attorneys office? When will something be done at the domed castle?

Just curious as to whether that salary was put up to a vote and did ALL of the commissioners vote unanimously for that? I'm sorry, but my husband who works for the largest utility co. in PA as a regional manager, only makes that in 1 month and he works 12 hours a day and some weekends and is "on-call" 24 hours a day in case they need him! I hope Mr. Gulotta will be woking just as hard. What exactly will he be doing? How often will he be "consulting?" I can't imagine he'll be working hard enough to earn close to $12,000 a month! Of course, I don't know him so maybe he's Superman in disguise....or maybe my husband should get a job with the county.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
