You got it. I could tell you there's no excuse for impugning the integrity of a dedicated professional, but there is. I've watched this happen elsewhere with the same detached committment to righting wrongs you embrace here. More times than I want to count. This different. This is my home. The emotion I feel for it will sometimes make me an unreliable witness. If you read through my rubbish this evening, you saw a grown man cry. Your mileage may vary.

I think the weasel, my nickname for the ITA, didn't want to hire anyone who is smarter then him. So he decided to hire someone without an degree in accounting. The problem is even someone with a high school education will eventually figure out how STUPID he is. I think he should have hired someone who didn't make it through elementary school, then maybe just maybe, he could have found someone who wouldn't figure out how stupid he is.

I don't know why he write all those qualificaions in his job postings if he really doesn't care if people are qualified. What's he going to do with the new library director. Maybe all you really need is a library card and he hire you as the new director. He is such a WEASEL he makes my skin crawl.

Marny, while I agree with your comment in principle, you cannot call the ita a weasel. While he does make the skin of a lot of people crawl, the name "weasel" already belongs to Jane Donahue. She earned that name many years ago and it would be difficult for us to determine who you were referring to if the ita was also a weasel. I am sure that those with more creativity than I can think of another name that will get the same point across.

I think we should go with Snidely Whiplash. He looks a lot like him.

People seem to have been going with "Interim Butt Monkey."

I suppose if you don't like to be scandalous and say "butt," then how about Half-Beard?

Hamatron... Thank you for the info I love the name "Interim Butt Monkey".
iliveinazoo... Excellent name, I am really torn between the two names. I think one day I will use Interim Butt Monkey and the next Ball-less wonder. Thanks for all your help.
