European Stars And Stripes (Newspaper) - July 9, 1987, Darmstadt, Hesse Thursday july 9, 1987 the stars and stripes Ann Landers Page 11 letters dear Ann Landers i will not get a Wink of sleep until i respond o the woman who resented or 50ns Friend jct and the Way he Hung around until they had to invite him for dinner and then he d beg to sleep Over. Of course you should t have to have this kid under your feet Day and night but i beg you do it anyway. I we Jutt like Jeff the Only child in a Home full of illness and silence. I a starved for Evi Dence of love and caring for the give and Lake of family life. 1 attached my of to kids who would let me come Home with them. I do wherever they d have me wherever i could pretend belonged i remember once i broke Down and cried became the father of Friend hugged me. My Oanfa thernover did not even once and was starved for a Crumb of affection. I m sure i was considered a pest and no doubt Jeff knows that you feel that Way about him too. Children Are hard to fool. But that poor kid is driven by hunger that i knew so Well and it makes me weep As i write this is Yew later. You Are probably the pest s idea of it real a wonderful family you must have for him to want to be a part of it. Indeed you May be the Only Model the lad hat Ever seen one after which he can pattern by own future family. Share what you can for As Long As you can woman. You Betty in Valley Stream . Don Betty thank Yon for letter that could Haw been Mitten Only by someone who has walked in those same mocks sons. Dear Ann Landers 1 was surprised that you let miss Dale raps off so easily not even a slap on the wrist How did you miss what was so obvious to me and 1 am sure to millions of others the handicapped woman Dale raped twice within a few months failed to see the part that she played in those two horrible encounters. By her own admission she and her co worker necked up a storm in the parking lot behind the res what does a grown woman think necking up a storm will Lead Login Rummy come off it Annie old girl. If people Don t want to Start fires they should t be fooling around with matches. Granted Dale raped May not have in tended to go to the Way but she certainly must accept responsibility for encouraging he Guy and making him think she was a willing partner. The trouble starts when she changes her mind after his passions Are out of control. Then it s Loo tale. No chauvinist i m a woman in Denver dear woman in denier. Many Reader picked up on this and i believe they Are onto something. When 1 made this Point in the column several months ago 1 got my ears sipped Down. Now i m convinced that i most rethink my petition and go Back to telling women if to font want a Complete social experience keep a Lively conversation going and he bands off dear Ann Landers Tell a Muncie ind., Reader that i la Stop adorn ing my face with a Beard when women Stop adorning theirs with Eye Shadow Eye liner Mascara lipstick and the tons of assorted garbage to enhance or hide what nature did t do. At least mine is free. A fuzzball in Denver dears Cuzz Muncie really Coughl it ibis week. You said it Best with an Economy of words. More about the friends of animals 1 would like to thank the stars and stripes and Joseph Owen for the interview and the article done about our organization Csc friends of animals. You have been 10 kind to give us space and exposure and we Are very grateful for that. 1 know it is greedy to ask for More yet i need to add some Points most important for us and the animals we Are trying to help it was mated that we have 37 members when counting them off our list this is indeed the Case. However it must be pointed out that Only five of those members Are actually actively involved in the work. By involved i mean 24 hours week Days weekend and Holiday As Well. We desperately need More Active members since we Are close to the Point when Ani Mals will be left without help because we cannot manage any More with our very limited resources. Second a mention must be made of the paper work legwork and the countless phone Call involved with a cruelty Case involving a military member. While the military has hundreds of regulations Ani Mal abuse neglect and abandonment Are often handled most casually and frequently swept under he Rug. Every German shelter has a substantial number of animals that once belonged to Servic members. Many of them Are sick abused and emotionally crippled. German shelters do not perform Elhana Sia therefore their exp pics Are immense. While Ger Man communities subsidize the shelters there is not a red cent received for All the throwaways from our american Community. Needless to say German american relations Are somewhat strained where animals Are concerned. Our organization has for Many years tried hard to smooth things Over a bit helping actively at the Shel ters and if possible making food and Money donations. It is sad that the military will not realize the prob Lem and if not helping the shelters at least help us in our work by acting swiftly in animal abuse cases. Third and maybe from our statement most important it has to be said that we do not do this work because we arc bored and frustrated with our lives. We All hold full Lime jobs and have our own pets und families. The animal work we Are doing is Seldom enjoyable holds no tangible rewards for us and is frequently quite ugly and discouraging. We Sec things to which other people close their eyes we try to heal that which other people injured and we pick up that which other people thoughtlessly and cruelly threw away. Albert Schweitzer said i have always held firmly to the belief that each one of us can do something to bring some portion of misery to an i suppose this belief is the reason we keep on doing what we do. Would t it be wonderful if this sentiment were contagious Nina 1. Berth Gumc friends of animals ludwigs Burg Germany cafes employment policies discussed 1 have changed jobs a number of times due to pcs moves. We have three children and i must supple ment my husband e e-6 pay. I was Lucky when i got a full Lime Job with cafes but now they rarely have full Tim jobs available just intermittent jobs 2-34 hours no sick leave and no vacation. The local nationals on the other hand have a work Council a representative member located in the facility to see they work according to the contract no Les than five noun compared to two hours for . Employees double time Tor sundays compared to 2s per cent differential for . Employees and then Only i they Are full time. Local nationals work 38.5 hours and get paid for 40. Who is Here to represent us not the equal employ ment officer we have one but he s not really effective. There should be someone to represent us. We family members sacrifice a lot of times. A lot of us Are willing to work but can t under Tunc conditions. If you have children it s almost impossible to work and pay out to a Sitter under cafes s new system it s hard not to feel bitter. By the Way 1 love Ger Many. It s been a lot of fun except the Job experience. Last week five people resigned due to distrust the management four . And one in. Is there a representative an ombudsman for us the . Employees name and location withheld editor s note Brig. Gen. . Leidy com Mander. To.

In november 1986, cafes europ itar cd a one year test of a variable schedule permitting intermittent employees to work 2 to 34 hours per week this allows local manager to Man effectively Deal with changes in customer shopping patterns. Cafes Enron employ about 3,500 family member in the intermittent category and it is considered a valuable source of supplemental income for the military family the most effective method of addressing employee concerns is through the local store or Exchange manager. We have dedicated and knowledgeable Bojker sors capable of addressing a very wide Range of employee concerns. Their will Gnesa to do w is integral to the cafes europ objective of developing careers. The cafes employee la our most important re source. Every cafes Europe employee regardless of nationality has the Opportunity and responsibility to voice their concerns questions and ideas through he cafes Chain of command. Doing that can help All of us do that singularly important Job better serving the soldiers and airmen and their families la Europe.
