Chaos at Florence-Lauderdale Tourism

 

Rob Carnegie Learns to Dance from Tucker Carlson

Things are certainly looking grim for the Florence Lauderdale Tourism office. Seems like Canada Rob and his idiot board have finally accomplished what Alex Nelson and David Mullendorf were appointed to do many years ago. What exactly was their mission, as dictated by The Dick Jordan? Destroy tourism in Florence and Lauderdale County. 

First was the appointment of the puppets with absolutely ZERO tourism experience at all to the board. Next they treated former director Debbie Wilson like she was scum of the earth, even though during her reign tourism soared to the greatest numbers and visitors ever. After she moved ahead to a greater career with the State of Alabama Tourism Department (don’t you know that pissed them off royally), they hired Canada Rob to come save the day. 

In just a few short months he managed to take Florence Lauderdale Tourism from a healthy, prosperous, thriving organization down to a struggling, weak and broke organization. There has been less than 1% growth max since he has taken over. Now, as of last week, Alison Stanfield has retired, and let's just call it like it is, she should have been named the Director after Debbie Wilson left. She is a better person than most people. Most people would have left the moment they hired Canada Rob, who came in to the job making nearly double the salary that Alison or Debbie Wilson made a year. 

Now we are hearing that Mary Fuller is leaving as of today. Tyler Dolan has resigned with his last day coming next week. As of yesterday, I hear that Canada Rob has terminated the employment of his ONLY full time employee left, Randa Simpson Hovator who is a tourism superstar. 

So mission accomplished for Ashley Madison’s #1 customer, Big Alex Nelson, David “mid-life crisis guy” Mullendorf, and the biggest player of the game, of course behind the scenes as always, The DICK Jordan. I bet this has something to do with DICK always looking for his wife Libby a bigger and better job. Sounds like the perfect storm for a takeover of tourism in the entire Shoals area. 

The City of Florence and Lauderdale County should completely cut off all funding to this terrible train wreck. The four mayors and cities and the two counties should combine Colbert and Lauderdale tourism offices and start fresh. Who could ever imagine that Colbert County is the leader in tourism in the Shoals area?? 

Now, the response from the Florence Lauderdale Tourism board in regards to the LOSS of the entire staff of the office, "we don’t get involved with the operations of the office.” Hmmmmm.  Then what in the hell do you do?
