benefit of the doubt?

There is nothing in his resume that specifically indicates any pool experience, as none is mentioned. It DOES say developed, administered, and supervised comprehensive community recreation program, 28 years ago. Has nothing changed over the past 28 years in that field? It seems, since he only was Director for ONE YEAR, that the new Rec Directors real skills were in sales, no? It doesnt say what he has been doing for the past 28 yera, just what he hopes to do here. God knows we need a fair-minded, experienced, and progressive Rec Director but the fact that he was hand-picked by the City Manager raises doubts and questions right off the bat. Gymbo doesnt like anybody to disagree with him and greatly prefers, and even requires, YES men in each and every department of the City. That is his history- total control. He doesnt want or need anything but sycophants working for him and has been pretty successful so far in getting what he wants. There is NO reason to believe that the new Rec Director will be any different. IF his resume checks out he should be given the benefit of the doubt, until his actions prove otherwise, I guess. Pool records will be checked this afternoon and the results posted here.
