Administration head job description
Dozens of janitor jobs to be cut across North Lanarkshire’s schools
A total of 43 janitorial posts are to be cut across North Lanarkshire’s schools after councillors agreed to implement a new cost-cutting cluster working model. Staff will now work in facilities teams covering a number of schools instead of their current dedicated postings; while the new system also removes janitors’ long-standing contractual overtime which will reduce take-home pay by up to £4000 a year. Trade union Unison condemned the loss of earnings for their members, who they describe as “some of the lowest-paid workers this council employs”, and saying: “These changes will have an impact on the delivery of the janitorial service and communities.” North Lanarkshire Council’s administration insist the changes will result in “a modern janitorial service, with better and flexible support for schools and community lets, along with an enhanced role and improved basic pay”. Unison representatives attended Thursday’s … [Read more...] about Dozens of janitor jobs to be cut across North Lanarkshire’s schools

‘A torrent of ghastly revelations’: what military service taught me about America
My first and only war tour took place in Afghanistan in 2010. I was a US Marine lieutenant then, a signals intelligence officer tasked with leading a platoon-size element of 80 to 90 men, spread across an area of operations the size of my home state of Connecticut, in the interception and exploitation of enemy communications. That was the official job description, anyway. The year-long reality consisted of a tangle of rearguard management and frontline supervision. Years before Helmand province, Afghanistan, however, there was Twentynine Palms, California. From the summer of 2006 to the summer of 2007, I was trained as a lance corporal in my military occupational specialty of tactical data systems administration (a specialty I would later jettison after earning my officer commission in 2008). My schoolhouse was the Marine Corps Communication-Electronics School, which was abbreviated as MCCES, pronounced “mick-sess”. For many, the wider location became “Twentynine … [Read more...] about ‘A torrent of ghastly revelations’: what military service taught me about America
