Our town’s local recall office is not only the site for activism and volunteering. It is also a place where people go to tell Julie their stories, often in tears. Here’s three:
*A teacher, in tears, tells how she would like to keep teaching, but with all the cuts, she is afraid of losing her retirement benefits. Like hundreds of other teachers, she reluctantly retires.
*An unemployment man comes in with a 50 page study a consultant did for the county, afterwhich the county cut his wife’s social work pay by $15,000 a year. Family hardship, bitterness, promises not kept.
*A school librarian, and childhood friend, says that her school system is now eliminating all school librarians, destroying what she spent 30 years building.

No person deserves your tears, and who deserves them won't make you cry.
