Responding to a critic, a government official claims to have effectively managed the number of employees under their administration and challenges the critic to find any other chief executive who accomplished such feat.
Allie - your so full of it. Like "popcorn" you read. Read where? That's such nonsense like much of your commentary. You act like you know something when you know absolutely nothing. My administration left in December 2016 with less employees than when we took over in December of 2008. The previous administration grew County government by over 500 new bodies. That's fiscal management and I challenge you to find any chief executive who did that over 8 years. In the history of the County of Hawaii over 5 vacant funded positions were ever cut. I cut 225 positions in three years.  The Finance Director and Human Resource Director turned over monthly employee counts to ensure that was always the case. Handed jobs out like "popcorn". Where do you get such nonsense from and why are you still allowed to spew inaccurate garbage under your anonymous "Allie". What a joke!
