HCDE Reality Check

  • Wednesday, December 7, 2016

The sooner everyone realizes that the sole reason the HCDE exists is to provide jobs to the HCDE administrators, teachers and staff, the sooner citizens can stop getting upset when the HCDE does what is in its own best interest.

It's really not a foriegn concept if you think about it.  Most of us get up and go to work out of self-interest, earning a paycheck, not because we feel an incredible since of responsibility to our fellow man and want to make sure he gets the best burger we can cook or the best business accounting money can buy or (fill in the occupation). We go to work because we need the money and the stuff money can buy.

And whenever possible we (employed folks) do what we can at our job to assure the need for our own existence (see HCDE central office). So as irritating as the stupid decisions these folks make seem to be, keep in mind that, last time I checked, there was only one vocational "calling" in life compelled by God himself and it wasn't being an employee of the HCDE.  

So please leave the self-serving decent folks at the HCDE alone and support your favorite private school (paying tuition) like the rest of us. Sooner or later they might get the message. 

Now I will sit back and see how many people try to tell me how wrong I am.  I love free speech.
