…a Star investigation found that three former employees and one current staffer say Marin and his trusted managers are petty tyrants with bizarre and strict rules on office etiquette. In letters to government officials and in two complaints to the Human Rights Tribunal, workers allege racial discrimination by the Ombudsman’s Office, which has denied discrimination against employees.
After the story appeared, the Star received calls from people identifying themselves as current or former employees, all requesting anonymity for fear of being fired or other reprisals. A former manager said he could not be identified due to terms of a separation agreement.
“There was an oppressive atmosphere,” said the former manager said, who said unwritten but understood rules discouraged employees from walking the hallway in front of Marin’s office, or placing personal effects on their desks.
Personally, I’m all for the NDP and the Conservatives endorsing this guy. He’ll have about as much credibility as John Gomery, by the time this thing is over.
Maybe less.
This guy is suspect..
We’ve all had to en dour petty tyrants on the job. Fortunately the Ombudsman’s office is a public agency.
What I found most nauseating was the “performance enhancement” purgatory. This sort of stuff will really turn people off…
Warren,
You have to admit the artical on Marin has Daisy I mean Kinsella written all over it! A page taken right out of The War Room.
Cheers
Nope. I’ve been reading about it all in the paper, just like you guys. And what I’ve been reading tells me this guy is unfit.
what’s he done to you Warren for you to put him on your shitlist?
I just think it’s time for someone else. Why do you think he’s so great?
He’s better than average and effective, a bit of a hot-dog but them successful people usually are. But the vehemence of your posts give something away, it’s easy too say someone else should be doing the job but your way of doing it is very harsh and appears to be vengeful, so i think that there is more to this in Lib HQ and you’re in the middle of it by whipping up the opposition
Really? How about this: I’ll give you the whole month of June to prove your allegations. If you don’t by then, you apologize. If you don’t apologize, I’ll sue.
Do we have a deal?
