Grady CEO Blames “Word Processing Error” For Claims Of Degrees She Does Not Have

by Icarus on July 18, 2008

Grady Hospital may have used the Notre Dame coaching search committee when selecting Rep. Pamela Stephenson as their CEO, and awarding her a 2 year, $1.2 Million guaranteed contract, even though her employment is not expected to last that long.

According to the AJC, Grady has claimed that Rep Stephenson has a law degree, doctorate, and two masters degrees.  They can only substantiate one Masters degree.   In fact, there is no proof that she even graduated law school, though she is a member of the Ga Bar.  (or so she claims).

She says that she will prove she graduated law school.  Last week, she claimed she will pay all the people in public records that she owes money to.  We know where she’s going to get that money.  I wonder where that law degree is coming from.

Memo To Grady Board:  When Rep Stephenson shows up to claim her 2 year, $1.2 Million paycheck, laugh and tell her, “Oh yeah, that.  Well, that was just a word processing error.”

Those dang word processors, they’re always playing jokes. Mine is constantly claiming I’m a lawyer, maybe I could get a job with Grady.

Maybe a certain Senator who likes to post on here and who is considering a run for Lt. Governor would like to explain his role is getting Stephenson this ridiculous contract……

Or better yet, he may want to explain to people on here what he does for a living, who pays him, and who was paying him to torpedo the grady overhaul legislation.

that spotlight is pretty bright Senator.

I’d been pondering going back to school to get an advanced degree, but its becoming clear I don’t need to. I’ll just claim I have one and get a job in Government.

$1.2 million isn’t really that much money when you compare it to what Grady costs the taxpayers.

Throw her out of there now.

The whole point of the Grady board is competent oversight. Otherwise what’s the point?

H.E., some of us ain’t smart enough to figure out the parables. Don’t leave us hanging — who’s up to what?

I’m confused as to what the problem is. She does have a law degree according to the GA Bar. It’s very easy to check.
