SEN.
MALONEY: Tony Madden.
ANTHONY
MADDEN: Couple things came out pretty good
here.
I like some of
the stuff that's going on
between
you and program
review, I hope it works.
First
of all the tax, tax
it. Because then maybe
you'll
get a check because
the government is going
to
want their part of it.
If that's what were
talking
about the taxes.
Tax that too please. But
there's
so many things
really. You've met with us
so
many times, we've come up
so many times, we've
been
to the governor's
office. We met with Mr.
Arcudi,
like Ken said we're
the past we're the
present
we're the future,
which ever way you want
to
put it.
I
have hearings, I'm in 308
benefits which is the
second
entry funds. I
receive a check maybe every
two
months, three months,
whichever time they feel
like
paying. Where's
the weekly pay? Honest to
God
the papers are here I
can show the checks.
They
stopped paying me in
November. December,
January
February, March 22nd
I got a check. So
where's
their fair
judgement? Number two I've been
trying
to tell Commissioner
Verelli down in
Bridgeport
for the past few
years they had me at
the
wrong pay rate.
I
was making $10.88 an hour
when I was in Moore
Special
Tool in Bridgeport.
I tried to go back to
work
after I injured myself,
I was in Mt. Sanai
Hospital,
Dr. Fox was one of
the doctors who
treated
me. I took a
pay cut to try to take my job
back.
They made me a
sweeper. I couldn't take
lifting
metal chips, it
didn't work out. I wound
up
coming back out because I
herniated the disk and
now
today the nerve is
giving me problems so the
doctor's
playing with me
again. But I'm still in
the
same place every three
months I'm having
hearings.
I
mean they're talking about
a backlog, if you keep
coming
every three months
you're going to have a
big
backlog. The
papers are here, I told you about
the
voluntary agreement.
Well, the voluntary
agreement
I don't know what
ever happened to it
because
it's not even
discussed in the formal
decision.
Remember I
had explained to Mr. O'Donnel
at
the time. It's not
even mentioned about me
seeing
the doctor or
anything else. I still have
no
idea today where that
went.
I
seen Dr. Stanzu August 22nd
and I'm still
waiting.
I mean the
commissioner, I'm really kind
of
frustrated as to which
way I'm going here. As
to
who do you go to for an
answer if the
commissioner
that you're
dealing with won't answer
you.
I have these
formal decisions, I mean the
paper
are here, I'm not
going to tell you this and
not
have something to back
it up. It's there and
as
far as getting the
commission to move on and
getting
them help, if they
need more staff, give em
more
staff I don't know what
the problem is but the
system's
not going to work
mostly until we get
somebody
in there to make
sure the job's being
done.
The
transfer to light duty,
I got transferred to
light
duty in my company and
they gave me a layoff
slip.
And they have
light duty. I took them in on
a
discrimination, and I
tried and wound up with a
transfer
to light duty and I
lost the case with the
commissioner.
Now I
have no way to do anything
about
it because my attorney
waited too long to
contest
it. There's
just so many gimmicks and ways
for
them to twist these laws
around I don't know
how
we're gonna, not how
we're gonna, how yous are
going
to straighten it out
because there's nobody
really
wants to look into
it.
There's
the accountability
of the commissioners and
make
sure there enforcing
the laws that are on the
books.
If you go in
front of them and you don't
have
your papers done properly
they could terminate
you
like that. But if
they're messing up you have
no
place to go. That's
were I'm stuck right now, I
have
no place to go. I
believe in my opinion the
commissioner
is messing off.
What do I do? Thank
you.
