“Matteson officials gave a politically connected Public Works Department employee second chances until it cost them — and taxpayers — tens of thousands of dollars, records show.
The son of Trustee Paula Farr, who is a building maintenance worker, began receiving performance reprimands shortly after being hired in February 2012, but he retained his job in spite of them, according to village personnel records. He did not return calls seeking comment left on his family’s answering machine and at his home.
Despite being caught numerous times for playing on his cellphone during work hours, disappearing while on duty and exerting minimal effort in the projects he undertook, Farr’s son rose from a probationary employee to a mid-level building maintenance worker, records show.”
