During the meeting...Man oh man, Wigg is an idiot. <br /><br />During the meeting you could see that the guy has the most limited vocabulary. Its embarassing. <br /><br />He even got rude with Patti Loiacano. She raised her hand and he told her to "wait" because he needed not to lose his "train of throught." Obviously the man can't keep his mind on any one thing. During the meeting he tried so hard to sound intelligent but as always failed. He answered more than 1 question incorrectly. He either does not listen or he does not understand. Whatever the reason he comes off like a moron. <br /><br />And then they brought in this guy who said he had years and years of experience with banks and credit unions but the guy bored so many of us. He really should never speak publicly. A lot of us dozed off and later we talked about what a bore the guy was. <br /><br />And Wigg disappeared conveniently when the Manny started to talk about financials. Why run like a coward? Manny even said that in the years he has been employed he has never seen such losses. He also said that is why there are no raises, no new hires, no food on Fridays, and so and so on. <br /><br />Wigg can't even see how much we all wish he would leave but of course as long as Diedra continues to have him at her breast he'll be fine.Jamesnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7093967394710757386.post-30255695186659999622009-04-24T17:58:00.000-07:002009-04-24T17:58:00.000-07:00Everyone knows Charles is the source of all violat...Everyone knows Charles is the source of all violations of confidential info. He talks about members and employees and says things loudly while walking thru all the depts at S. Pas. He alone is the one who violates policy but I don't see the board of supervisors doing anything about it. That guy that spoke yesterday said you can trust the board of supervisors and Diedra. Well Aaron met with Diedra and gave her info about Charles and she did nothing with it. And Kim Burke spoke to Diedra and Diedra did nothing with the evidence. So why again are you supposed to trust Diedra or the board? <br /><br />I remember O. Glen Saffold saying priority one needed a black ceo, so why would anyone of any other color ever think that people who only see black would investigate any complaint fairly?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7093967394710757386.post-15460919323463407362009-04-23T18:36:00.000-07:002009-04-23T18:36:00.000-07:00I couldn't wait to get home and finally post on th...I couldn't wait to get home and finally post on this blog. <br /><br />We had a meeting at the South Pasadena office. It was amazing. A lot of the meeting was about privacy and protecting member information. They even had a representative from an accounting company speak to everyone about privacy laws. The guy kept saying that people could contact Diedra or Cornelia Simmons if they suspected anyone was revealing confidential info. WOW!!<br /><br />First, what more proof do you need that Diedra and Charles are guilty of everything on this blog!<br /><br />Second I would like to turn some one in for revealing information about members and employees. His name is Charles Wiggington. <br /><br />So now that you know his name are you going to suspend him Diedra? Are you going to terminate him Diedra? <br /><br />I would also like to turn someone else in who has allowed harassment and discrimination to happen at the credit union and who has violated policy and not terminated Charles. Her name is Diedra. <br /><br />I am so glad they told us we could tell the board and according to the guy, he promised the boards would do everything to investigate and correct the problem. The guy was another moron who made promises about something he knows nothing about. <br /><br />Well I've revealed names now lets wait.Mao Tse Tungnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7093967394710757386.post-65491220277106276202009-04-22T23:21:00.000-07:002009-04-22T23:21:00.000-07:00Deidra, we used to think you were a little smarter...Deidra, we used to think you were a little smarter.

Yes, its cowardly and yes, its dishonest and yes, it them!<br /><br />Here is the message:<br /><br />"Annual Meeting Notice<br />Wednesday May 27, 2009 <br />The annual meeting of Priority One Credit Union will be held Wednesday, May 27th, 2009 at 6:00 PM. The meeting will be held at<br /><br />South Pasadena Headquarters<br />1631 Huntington Drive South Pasadena<br />CA 91030<br /><br />At the meeting, the CEO will report on the status of the Credit Union.<br /><br />In addition, the results of our election will be announced at the Annual Meeting. In accordance with the Credit Union’s bylaws, notice was given to the membership that Nominations by Petition were sought for one (1) vacancy on the Board of Directors, and two (2) vacancies on the Supervisory Committee. Nominations for these vacancies closed at midnight on February 28, 2009, and no nominations by petitions were received. Thus, in accordance with the bylaws, the nominees selected by the Nominating Committee for each of the positions will be deemed elected. <br /><br />Except as provided above, no other new business will be conducted at the Annual Meeting. Priority One Credit Union."<br /><br />Do not let this be a deterrant to those of you who may have planned to attend the meeting. I think it will be a good opportunity to at least get to see what Charles and Diedra look like, don't you?<br /><br />Last week, they forced employees to sign confidentiality agreements.<br /><br />This month, Charles has refused to release March's financials.<br /><br />Now there are perimeters which he has raised for the upcoming Annual Meeting. <br /><br />Does any of this seem defensivess? Does it seem to corroborate my assertions and those of commentators on this site, that both Charles and Diedra are guilty of wrong doing. I guess they never learned that how we react in life may impact our guilt or innocense.John Rodartehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17859747586374406241noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7093967394710757386.post-2242335539198104912009-04-22T20:44:00.000-07:002009-04-22T20:44:00.000-07:00I used to work for Priority One some time ago. At ...I used to work for Priority One some time ago. At the time, Charle had been at the CU for several years. I remember him as obnoxious and distasteful. He used to talk with his mouth full, talk about himself a lot, and sometimes his breath reaked. None of that determines the ability of a person. <br /><br />Yes, he talked about sex usually with the other "boys" at the office and yes, I saw him make comments to Ms. Burke that were in my opinion, inappropriate and suggestive. <br /><br />What made the worst impression is that the man is lazy. He was the VP of operations yet if you asked him a question about operations, he often referred you to someone else. I came to realize that he was ignorant and definitely unqualified but I never would have imagined that he would ever become president. <br /><br />One day he asked a group of us if we knew why Maggie Rios looked so relaxed. When we said we did not know, he said, "Because she never does anything."<br /><br />An employee named Dorothy once offered to obtain a bumper to replace one which had been damaged during an accident. She never located the bumper but for years, he would continually tell employees about how she promised to get him a bumper but never did. One day, he told me and a co-worker that he thought she didn't get the bumper because he was black. It was disgusting that he could so easily pull out the race card.<br /><br />Yes, as many people have posted, the man likes to talk (to the point you wish you were deaf) but usually its about subjects about him and his wonderfulness. The subjects are not ever about anything intelligent. <br /><br />It is sad to see that he has damaged the credit union's internal reputation. It is sadder still to see just how corrupt Diedra is. <br /><br />It used to be a nice place.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7093967394710757386.post-29971575884514944902009-04-22T17:56:00.000-07:002009-04-22T17:56:00.000-07:00In Diedra's defense, she's not ghetto she's from t...In Diedra's defense, she's not ghetto she's from the projects.Microfonenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7093967394710757386.post-87502821337278845552009-04-22T17:07:00.000-07:002009-04-22T17:07:00.000-07:00I KNOW FOR A FACT THAT AARON CAVAZOS MET WITH DEID...I KNOW FOR A FACT THAT AARON CAVAZOS MET WITH DEIDRA FOR LUNCH ONE DAY WHILE OUT ON DISABILITY TO DISCLOSE PERSONAL BUSINESS INFORMATON TO HER ABOUT SOME MORE ILLEGAL ACTIVITYS THAT CHARLES WAS DOING AT THE CREDIT UNION.

He is<br />sufficiently aware that readers awaited the information which would determine if the credit union's financial state has improved or is continuing to deteriorate. <br /><br />The decision to impede issuance of the financials also has a psychological aspect to it. By withholding the information Charles MAY HAVE FELT empowered and may have believed that he could in some way shut down this blog. <br /><br />For his information, I have a lot of material, including statements from former employees describing things they were subjected to by Mr. Wiggington. I certainly have enough to post on his abuses against employees which would have diverted attention to his continued abuse of employees. <br /><br />He MAY also have planned to assure employees during the all-employee meeting, that everything is financially sound at the credit union. Certainly without March's figures, it would have been impossible to determine if losses had in fact continued or if a reversal had occurred. <br /><br />The posting of the financials, thanks to the help I received from readers of this blog, may have succeeded in aborting any effort by him to again dupe credit union employees.<br /><br />Before accessing the NCUA's site, I had been told that delinquencies are at an all-time high. One reason is that several members who obtained automobile financing through he credit union have voluntarily surrendered their vehicles. <br /><br />Unfortunately, any efforts and successes achieved by the current in-house collectiopn team is adversly thwarted by each vehicle that is returned to the credit union. <br /><br />I am sure there are many non-employees who would like to be a fly on the wall during Thursday's meeting. Lets hope that Charles again chooses to lie and expounds personal praises about his achievements and proclaims the financial stability of the credit union. Anything he says which conflicts with the more than $2million dollars in negative assets reported for the quarter ending 3/31/09, will make a wonderful post.<br /><br />I wait with bated breath.John Rodartehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17859747586374406241noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7093967394710757386.post-17984549669654660072009-04-21T22:49:00.000-07:002009-04-21T22:49:00.000-07:00One great thing is he no longer walks around the o...One great thing is he no longer walks around the office talking as much.

As I have stated in many prior posts, the disclosures on this site were strictly made by Charles R. Wiggington, a man who seems incapable of exercising sufficient discipline to bridle his mouth. I wonder if he's suffers from adult ADD?<br /><br />It is his verbal exclamations of highly confidential information which have powered this blog. Did a breach of confidential information occur? Yes. Was it due to employee indescretions and their refusal to abide to the rules governing confidentiality? Not at all. <br /><br />Mr. Wiggington has an incumbent responsibility to adhere to the same rules employees are required to abide to. His disclosure of highly confidential information to employees and in the presence of employees, constitutes the source where the breach occurred. In the end, he alone is responsible and like "October" wrote, it is he alone who should have been ordered to sign the documents. <br /><br />Remember, after he was investigated for sexual harassment, employees were forced to attend a class of sorts, on the subject of sexual harassment. The decision was made by the board or specifically, Diedra, who seems to drag everyone into the mire which Charles creates. In other words, everyone must incur the reverberations of his actions. <br /><br />Diedra seems incapable of understanding that the ethical comportment of any business, establishes that organization's character. This means that CEO's respect and choose to adhere to the policies and rules established for all employees. That is, of course, if the CEO does not suffer from a god-complex. <br /><br />It seems that Diedra prefers hiding wrong doing committed by Charles, than making him accountable for what he does. Is she his mother? <br /><br />I guess hiding the truth is more important than doing what is right. Obviously, Diedra is expending a lot of energy trying to villify me when all she has to do is look in the mirror to find the culprit behind Priority One's woes. Of course that would require a sense of ethical responsibility that she is devoid of. Isn't that right, Diedra?<br /><br />I would like all readers to know that in the world of business and of men and women, <br />Diedra or Charles are most certainly, forgettable.John Rodartehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17859747586374406241noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7093967394710757386.post-41908786491898751872009-04-21T21:28:00.000-07:002009-04-21T21:28:00.000-07:00Look under a rock and you will find wigg man, dig ...Look under a rock and you will find wigg man, dig deeper and you will find the board.
