Putting Your Business Out On the Street For All The World To See
This happened at the office where Vargas is a honcho and his buddy Jean-Philippe is the honcho.When bozzos like them trample on the dignity of New York Citizens all they need to do is "frantically apologize", then resume doing whatever it is they do...
The ACS department where I worked for eight years, Emergency children's Services, has made the news for the first time since the Child Protective Manager Ramon Vargas bungled Whitick case on super Bowl Sunday, 2005. This time it was because the Daily News found out that ECS takes case records that have all kinds of private information as well as all kinds of unsubstantiated accusations and lies, about hundreds of New Yorkers, puts them in garbage bags and leaves them out on the sidewalk.i
Bloomberg says he's very upset - about the Daily News getting hold of one of these bags - and wants an investgation. If the investigation will be a typical ACS investigation, like the one about what went wrong on the Whitick case, no one needs to worry, unless of course some taxi driving ex-employee had given the bag to The Daily News.
From 11/20 NY Daily News:
Confidential ACS files found dumped on street
BY RICH SCHAPIRO and NICOLE BODE
DAILY NEWS STAFF WRITERS
[Daily News reporter holds confidential files found in clear plastic
bag dumped outside Administration for Children's Services office on E.
29th St. and First Ave.] More than 200 case files filled with
confidential information about the city's most at-risk children were
dumped on a Manhattan streetcorner, the Daily News has found.
The unshredded Administration for Children's Services files - tossed
out in a ripped, clear plastic garbage bag - contained highly
sensitive personal data about families, social workers and police
involved in agency cases dating from 2000-2001.
"You found it on the street? You're kidding me!" gasped Melissa, a
41-year-old mother whose last name the Daily News is withholding.
"They just put it on the street and anybody could have come? Those
people need to be sued for doing what they're doing."
The files were tossed in a trash heap filled with office furniture and
cardboard boxes in front of the ACS offices on E. 29th St. and First
Ave. last Thursday. Agency officials issued a frantic apology to those
named in the files, adding that they were scrambling to learn how it
had happened...

I am surprised you lasted as long as you did there. I made it through only a few months, and I have to agree that ACS was far more problematic to deal with than any of my clients. I was lucky to have awesome supervision, but it wasn't for me and I went quickly back to the private sector. The problems there are quite serious and far-reaching, bad casework is only a small part of it. There are some great people, but there are not enough of them. In the interest of equal time, I found it a waste of my life to deal with the stupid problems of uneducated people who made the very poor choice to reproduce without having the mental or financial means to support that bad decision. Clients: Please stop doing drugs. Please stop beating your wife and children. Please go back to school and finish your education. School & Work is whats going on, there is no option 3. Also, this site would be a little more credible without the odd mixture of soft-porn and pseudospirituality.
Matt, the soft porn is a stab at irony and perhaps it doesn't work.
As for what you call pseudo spirituality I do believe there is a God of justice and mercy and I do believe there is right and wrong. Most ACS staff would profess a belief in and a fear of God. I try to address them on this level.
As for your attitude toward the poor and their right to reproduce I'm totally against it. I oppose all anti human ideologies such as Malthusianism which is old time nazism. There are not "too many ppeople" on earth, there are too many two legged pigs.
