The salary range is $140,000 to $170,000, hmmm, sounds like something Bill Finch will be interested in, I mean he said, “Bridgeport Is Getting Better,” he’s right, $20 million in the red from his term in office. Think about what he’ll do for the BRBC. Yes, “Bridgeport Is Getting Better,” now his ass is out of office.
They could get Mugs the chimp to run the group. What have they done for Bridgeport? Glad Timpanelli is gone.
Timpanelli is still waiting for Steve Wynn and Donald Trump to build a casino in Bridgeport.
BRBC Chief Executive. Now there’s a nice, easy, cushy, no-show job (you have to show up only to make one-line statements at photo ops). Just follow the game plan of BCFC President Chris Bruhl, do what he tells you to do, and you’ll have a long, successful run.
Implement, envision, promote, sustain, strategize, ensure, lead, advocate, manage. Where does it say: how?
Jeff Kohut and Bob Halstead, why don’t you guys apply for the position? Maybe Steve Auerbach could also apply.
*** We all know Finch is up for this job coming this summer, let’s hope he does not get it, after what he did to the city taxpayers before he left office in a poor show from a sore political loser! *** CURSED BE HIS NAME WHILE IN THE CITY OF BPT. ***
