Confined Space: "Tuesday, November 01, 2005 | PERMALINK Posted 7:39 AM by Jordan | Labor Dept Rebuked Over Wal-Mart Deal
The Bush administration's bad week continues.
While this won't make the same headlines as the Miers withdrawal or Scooter's journey to the dark side, the underbelly of the Bush administration's coziness with its special corporate friends was revealed for all to see as the Bush Labor Department was taken to the woodshed yesterday by its inspector general who criticized the Department for an agreement promising the stores 15 day notice before labor invstigators woud inspect its stores for child labor violations.
The Labor Department's inspector general strongly criticized department officials yesterday for 'serious breakdowns' in procedures involving an agreement promising Wal-Mart Stores 15 days' notice before labor investigators would inspect its stores for child labor violations."
...
The inspector general also contradicted the Labor Department's claim that there was nothing about this agreement that the Clinton administration hadn't done, finding that
the agreement between Wal-Mart and the Labor Department's Wage and Hour Division (W.H.D) "was significantly different from other agreements entered into by W.H.D." and "had the most far-reaching restriction on W.H.D.'s authority to conduct investigations and assess" fines..

Hi there Editor. I was searching for the latest information on stock option training and somehow, which I don't understand, found your site. Although Bush administration has 'serious breakdowns' in procedures promising Wal-Mart Stores 15 days' notice before labor investigators would inspect wasn't what I was interested in, I'm sure glad I found it. It's really amazing how on the Internet you can sit down and look for one thing, such as stock option training and find totally unrelated interesting stuff and spend hours reading about stuff other than what you were searching for. I'll keep on looking for stock option training but I just had to comment on how much I enjoyed reading the comments here.
