High Lookee Lodge of Warm Springs Premiere Assisted Living Facility needs motiviated & dedicated people for: Admin istrative Assistant; Activity Di rectorFitness Instructor; Health Service CoordinatorRN; CaregiversPersonal Services Apologies sent to To the editor, The community of Warm Springs. First of all, I'd like to apologize to the Greene family for not being able to attend the funeral to pay my re spects. I don't know what gives the court system the right to approve or dis approve a man the right to attend and pay respect to the family at a funeral of a well respected elder in our community. I think that the people of our res ervation need to take a close look at the court and judicial system in the correctional facility. Bad enough I'm in jail because of a man coming to my house causing problems. On several occasions was asked to leave and stay away. Then, got beat down when he wouldn' t stay away. I ended up getting the raw deal out of it with several months incarcera tion for protecting myself and my property. The man should have never got out of his car trying to be all macho.

Most positions require working Greene family Another topic is my employment. How can a man make a respectful living working hard to better his life when the correctional facility cut me off cold? Since I've started working I've never missed a day of work that wasn't excused until I ended up in this place. I've never so much as called in sick or miss work on acount of a funeral and I was late a couple of times since I started working over a year ago and those were only by a few minutes. Its depressing knowing that I'm controlled by the judicial system again. After straightening my life out. In a few more days it'll be twenty four months since I quit drinking. Isn't the Tribe suppose to be en couraging employment rather than cutting them down cold? I can un derstand it if I was still living my old lifestyle. But I'm still striving to better my life. .
