First Pool Problem Of The Season

It's the first weekend of May and Halburn is already bitching about the area pools.
What is his obsession with pools?
He showed up at the South Charleston Community Center Pool on Sunday along with his "son" to take a dip. Unfortunately for him (and the employees there), there was a problem with the heater and the pool was closed. Crisco immediately started babbling about the 80 degree temperature outside and demanded they bus the staff up the hill and open the outdoor pool at Little Creek that's not scheduled to open until Memorial Day. Never mind that the water temperature hadn't even reached 65 degrees yet. What's a little hypothermia? "SERVICE ME IMMEDIATELY!!!" His hissy fit immediately brought the kid to tears, so now he's included the boy into his drama. 
I can't believe he actually acknowledged his insane request to move the ocean to Charleston!

South Charleston Community Center Pool

"My poor little guy... I check the web page of a local indoor pool for its hours, closure status, etc. All good. We get there and it's CLOSED due to the heater "cooking" the water. Now it's an 80 degree day, and they ALSO have an outdoor pool. They have staff. Outdoor pool isn't scheduled to open until Memorial Day. 
With temps in the 80's and the ONLY other pool closed, logic says they open the OUTDOOR pool and bus the staff up the hill... (Yes, there IS a bus!). "


Your "poor little guy" is right. Who wants to go through life with you as a father?
Logic says the OUTDOOR pool would have a water temperature of about 60 degrees.
It's the FIRST fucking weekend in May. The temperature hasn't been above 70 degrees before this. Do you have any idea what the water temperature would be in an outdoor pool? You'd be bitching that it was too cold if it were open.

 

Little Creek Park Pool

"When I talk to the director, (after he calls me back after his staff LIES to me and says he isn't working) he acts as if it's crazy to use the second pool. Invites me back tomorrow AFTER I tell him that I only get the boy every other weekend. 
The boy is in tears because he can't go swimming. (He LOVES his TMNT bathing suit, towel, and ball for the pool!)"

The boy is in tears because Daddy is ranting and raving and generally behaving like an asshole in public. He's weeping from embarrassment.
"A word to civic leaders: West Virginia has an overweight population. STOP closing the pools on 80 degree days!!! Now if I was allowed to take him to The Carolinas, there is always the ocean. And, yes, PsychoJudge Kelly banned me from taking him out-of-state and refused to order the ocean be moved to Charleston! The OTHER issue cannot be publicly discussed... 5/3 10:27pm"

A word to Halburn:
West Virginia has an overweight Halburn problem. A pool being open or closed is not going to help you. It's just your excuse.
And a whackadoo demand like wanting a judge to move the ocean is exactly why you can't take the kid  to the Carolinas, or any place out-of-state, for that matter.

 

I Just Threw Up In My Mouth A Whole Lot

This is the number one choice for the most revolting comment made on Facebook this year:

U-Haul

A North Charleston U-Haul employee gets a scathing online review.

Want to guess who it is?

Of course. Mark Halburn.

Andrew B. shares the details.

"ANDREW B. on 1/18/2015
The pick-up experience was awful, the man named Mark Halburn was rude, a liar, and generally just plain nasty, had I not been in a time squeeze, I would have NOT used U Haul, (in the past I have never had a bad experience with U haul). The wonderful young lady who handled the return of the vehicle was the total opposite of Halburn, smiling, helpful and deserving of a raise! It is my intention to write a letter of commendation concerning her, just have not gotten to it yet, and at the moment can't recall her name, but I do have it somewhere. What can you do to improve things for the next customer? FIRE HIM, FAST!!!!! He will cost you return business. Just a complete JERK, and slow as well. Seriously, an incredibly bad employee you need to terminate. If you would like to call me to discuss this, you are welcome to do so, I am sure you have my contact information with the contract."


It appears he was working this job while he was off injured at Harbor Freight.

No Fly

Halburn has been named to a very elite group at Charleston's Yeager Airport.
His picture is posted as a potential disruptive visitor after he got into argument with staff there.

The only way he will be getting back on a plane is to get two Police Dept letters of reference. He will probably get one from that dipshit Chief in Winfield  and it's possible Putnam County Sheriff Steve Deweese will come through for him again since he seems to be in Halburn's pocket. 

Could he have also been added to the TSA's No Fly list?

Congratulations, lardass! We knew you'd make it!
If you fly out of Yeager, look and see if you see his photo. Extra credit if you send us a picture.

Grifter Shops With A Cop

Unethical Publisher Steals Gifts From Poor Kids

Winfield PD sponsors a Shop With A Cop program for needy kids. They take the kids to Walmart and let them shop for Christmas gifts for their family. Which is great.

What's not so great is that Halburn took his kid with him Saturday when he went there to write a story about it and then scammed them into including the boy in the gift buying, thereby knocking a truly needy boy or girl out of the fun.

And, the 400 lb blogger who constantly wants to lecture everyone about ethics, showed his lack of same by failing to report that his son was the beneficiary of Winfield PD's largesse.
Daddy gets MORE free stuff to make himself look good and gets junior used to the idea of getting something for nothing.

New CVS Job

Guess who's working got a job at Charleston area CVS stores?
Not only is he at the Kanawha City CVS, he's also at the new Oakwood  Rd location as well as the one on Morris Street in the East End.
Apparently he's a floater. Like a great big turd. 
He hopes to be promoted to tampons & prophylactics manager soon.

I hear they're keeping the douche bags behind the register now.

Don't companies do background checks anymore? What's the over/under on the length of his employment this time?
The other night he was working at the Oakwood Road store. Overheard ... he's still pushing his blog ... whining about the Putnam County Sheriff's Department use of drones, etc, etc.

Employees tell us that management wants rid of him but are afraid of being sued. "He has really showed himself while he's been here. He's very bossy; as employees come in,  he will hand them lists of things he thinks they need to do.  He is making trouble and trying to get the manager fired."
 
The good thing about him working at the East End location is that it is right next door to Work Force WV. The unemployment office. Convenient for him in case he gets fired or he just feels a need to harass someone there again.
If you're in an area CVS, stop in and give him some shit. Bonus points to the first reader who sends a pic of him "working".
