The state has already budgeted the sick time and the cost of replacing the employee. It's not hurting the Commonwealth if someone calls out sick.

I think the state employees who are showing up for work and not doing anything are the ones who should be investigated.

When he called in sick his position is not filled either, so no one gets paid O.T. to fill his spot, I doubt. I could be wrong. But they do get to save thier days from when they start until they retire or separate from service.

I am really not sure if I have an opinion on whether this is right or wrong considering the circumstances. I can tell you I would be pretty peesed if someone ratted me out for taking a sick day to go fishing or whatever.....not that I have EVER done that of course....

The only thing that bothers me it is a faceless/anonymous accusation. If this was private industry no one would investigate an anonymous charge like this. I'll bet the M.S.P. doesn't either.

Terry hung himself with his reports regardless who ratted him out!
As for all the "he works night" excuses, from what I've read he works the night shift 11:00 - 7:00, calls in sick then 7:01 he's magically feeling good enough to run a charter!
I've met Terry a bunch of times and always thought he was a pretty good guy. (still do)
But reading this tread on THT

"I will kick your ass with a fishing rod, then without" NOT cool for someone who is supposed to be enforcing and upholding the law !
One thing is for sure,
Terry was pretty well known in the fishing community,
now he's known by just about everyone.
Wonder if this will be good or bad for the charter business ???

I'm not paying 30 clams to read that thread, Ronnie. Maybe you should copy and paste it

Terry does have a reputation as a hard-ass, even for a Trooper.
