These security guards engaged in sexual harassment by making inappropriate sexual gestures and body language in front of the building.blocked my way, one security guard was calling me Darling come so close to me inches away other one is singing make gestures asking me to come with him, I want county to save video surveillance footage of the building as well as body cameras. This incident was facilitated by the Health and Human Services Agency, whose name I believe is Mendoza. Harley denied my benefits not due to racism, but as retaliation after he hung up on me . I informed him that I would file a report, which prompted him to gather all the security guards, including his supervisor, to harass me further and retaliate against me. This behavior constitutes discrimination against me. I requested that the County preserve the video footage and body cam footage of the security guards outside the building. I also notified a private security guards humor resources company about the incident. It is unacceptable that these individuals, who are paid by the County and wear uniforms, harass single women in uniform. This is our tax money, and we deserve to have it used responsibly. I urge everyone to speak up and take action against this discrimination. BELOW ZERO STAR

A worker called yesterday telling me I would receive an eliglibity call today at 9:30am. No call. So I called the country. The person answering say 'we don't see any authorization for you to talk to us about his case but I will transfer you to an eligiblity worker". I was transfered to waiting music for about 15 minutes. Finally a human answered and when I gave the case number, the last four of his SSN, and our address, she said "we don't have any paperwork on file here allowing us to talk to you." I hung up in disgust and called my son's doctor. The doctor (just like last year) said he would call these people and help me!

Once I waited on word about an apartment, and the worker, who didn't become my permanent worker, wouldn't leave until the call came and she was more exited for me than I was. Put it this way, where I ported from was and still is the worst PHA in the US, because it's literally impossible for another PHA to be worse, they can only hope to tie, because the corrupt, conspiring, bad intent, fraud, abuse of a dependent adult, caseworker unlawfulness and Director complicity, etc., scale only goes up to 100 and they're at 110, I know impossible, but not for they!!!!!!!!!!!!! Ok, I suppose since they surpassed it, another could possibly. It's not that I hold a grudge, what I spoke of above is documented by their own hands and they DO NOT care about the damage they cause to any they target. I'm speaking of the OCEANSIDE HOUSING AUTHORITY in Oceanside, CA. Put it this way, there was a totally corrupt Director when I was there that left me no other choice but to port out because the annual inspection never got scheduled, which isn't the tenant's responsibility, but they placed the blame on me. The Director, present day, is even worse by being complicit with the caseworker's fraud, that netted over $2800 from a dependent adult over the course of 1 year, and she signed the refusal to return the money back to the victim whom the caseworker retaliated against for an error the caseworker made previously. I'm writing this because they can't sue me for telling the truth, especially since I have irrefutable evidence that totally proves it. They are the scum of the earth, which is also proven by the evidence of what they've done and are still doing present day after 2 years, because she hasn't gotten the $2800+ that they robbed her of, that was for her bills, which go unpaid, thus far, because I won't stop until they answer for their literal crime under PC 368.6(4)(A): Financial Exploitation of a Dependent Adult, which constitutes a 'Hate Crime'. I'm also writing this online for the public who see it, because their victim is understandably stressed, but her health is literally at risk due to the stress they've caused with intent to do so; don't believe me, I have proof that I'll present to anyone who has the ability and position to help in this matter. You can contact me at (intheirhonor11@gmail.com). Her caseworker also threatened her for contacting upper management, documenting it, with the threat that stated because she contacted upper management, it meant that they would not return the money, and 8 months later, the Director stated that we told you before that we wouldn't return the money and the matter is closed and they netted a good profit.

I have to caution Yelp readers to maintain their composure and ask God to grant you serenity, because you will need it in bucket loads when your biz takes you here!`If anyone remembers The Reader cover story from a few weeks back on "The Welfare Queen," many of my remarks will coincide with that opus on entitlements. For some unknown reason, one of my safety net services was cut off and I received a letter telling me that without an explanation. When I called the toll-free number, after being on hold for like 3 hours, a worker finally came on and said that I was over a certain amount in my bank balance. In other words, I was $25 over the poverty limit allowed. Never mind that their rules forbid them for counting unemployment compensation money you receive against you-they did it anyways. So the woman on the phone tells me to make copies of my bank deposits and unemployment checks to prove that's where my money comes from. When I receive my quarterly report form, I send that proof in-AS DIRECTED TO BY THE TELEPHONE LADY. I then receive a call from another worker telling me that I sent in the wrong proof of income-they need the unemployment stubs, not copies of the checks. So off I go to make copies of the stubs (keep in mind-I am still (wrongly) terminated from their services by this mistake of theirs) and today I drove it up and personally handed it to the lady who told me she needed it in order to finish my quarterly report. When this women finally got to me in the waiting office, she looked (and sounded like) something the (hippie) cat dragged in! She didn't even remember telling me to drive up the paperwork. Then she laugh and tells me she will only recycle it since it is not needed after all! How come she made me drive it all the way up & wait to turn it in? I get to go to an appeal hearing and ask a judge to reinstate my services because this department cut me off in error-although I have given them EVERY PROOF they need or want to keep me on board! The right hand does not know what the left hand is doing here. These bureaucrats are so over-whelmed with work and new cases, that they can't think straight! I do feel for them but at the same time, they can make your life miserable-if you let them. I just stood there today and tried to be amused by the randomness of it all. Also the absurdity of them putting me through the ringer for a mistake they committed but I have to pay for. Hassles, hassles, and more hassles! Make sure you leave the screaming, runny-nosed rug rats at home! Try and get a good night of sleep and eat a nutritious breakfast before you drag yourself up to this Welfare Office. It will take every ounce of your sanity to remain sane while dealing with these paper-pushers and their senseless, contradictory rules and regulations. That middle-class sense of entitlement you earned by going to college and once having a good job will gain you no ground here. Best to just shut up and deal with it. As nice as this new office is-as I documented in my previous Yelp-the B.S. entailed with going here-is almost soul-crushing. I thank God for enough self-control and discipline to just play along to get along. Remember what I say if your path in life should ever take you up to Ruffin Road and this insanity-inducer of an office!

But the tags will enable them to more readily locate her when there are reports of issues - and humanely "haze" her back up into her mountain home and away from the more urban areas via loud noises and such. She actually showed up yesterday almost right after I got the update call - her "ears must've been burning" as we say in the south lol - she must've known we were talking about her haha!

My employer at the time, Advantage Sentry and Protection, sabotaged me. Advantage Sentry and Protection Owner, Norman Llanes, hired his crony, Marco A. Rossi, a terminated police officer with The San Diego Unified School District, and gave him a pretend supervisor position. Norman and Rossi had previously worked together as police for the district. At the time of his employment with ASAP , Rossi was involved in a lawsuit, trying to get his pension. While employed at ASAP, I went through a corrections academy to start a new career. Meanwhile, Rossi would not stop causing problems for everyone, and was openly hostile. Rossi went as far as telling me not to view him as a supervisor. Everyone started voicing their problems with this terminated cop. A supervisor gave two weeks notice due to repeated antagonism from Rossi. A second supervisor(retired Chula Vista PD) said, " I won't get out of my car until he leaves. He stirs bleep up." The owners eldest son. Norman Avery Llanes Jr. said, " He is an a***e. He is only here for a free check." Rossi was threatened with termination by the owner's wife, Joyce Atkins Llanes, for harassing a male employee with a tampon. Rossi falsely told subordinates that I was having sex with a female employee, and lied about my job performance. Rossi was watching pornography on the company computer in the lobby. Norman was monitoring the online search history, and protected him. After he adversely affected my wages and work record, I put in a complaint. The owner was furious with me, and demanded that I justify myself to his crony. The owner immediately suspended me. Owner, Norman Llanes, Rossi, and I met at the office. The owner falsely promoted Rossi to a higher rank at this time. Yet, Rossi had previously told me not to view him as a supervisor. On this day, he wanted to be viewed as one. Norman Llanes began bragging about their law enforcement backgrounds. Norman started lying to my face about my job performance. Norman said, " If it was up to me, I would fire you." Yet, I did not even have a restroom at my work site. Norman expected me to go to a grocery store for this. Then, with a false sense of moral superiority, the owner said, " I expect more from a corrections academy graduate." This was after the owner instructed me to falsify reports for client, Walters Management. This was now a hostile environment. As Norman and I stood outside the front office door, I asked how this would be resolved. The owner took one step inside, and literally through the door shut in my face. One week later, I was terminated for "insubordination." Norman decided to fully support the games of Marco A. Rossi. Also, I was told by a supervisor that Norman was having mood swings due to all the medications he was taking for his medical problems. For the unemployment hearing, I subpoenaed a supervisor, and had a security officer voluntarily testify. The supervisor never disputed any of the allegations against Rossi. The security officer confirmed that Rossi was telling subordinates I was having sex with a female employee. Norman could not give a single reason to justify my termination. The owner repeated, "I expect more from a corrections academy graduate." Norman was delusional. Norman became desperate, and was caught lying about me. At the end of the hearing, the ASAP operations manager agreed that my termination was not justified. Norman was laughed out of the hearing. However, I did not receive benefits due to not attending the first hearing(mandatory). After the hearing, I contacted Norman in good faith about changing my file. Norman texted me, "You drunk man." I do not drink alcohol. I applied for a corrections job. Norman destroyed me with this potential employer during a background check. The last time I viewed my file, there were five inches of false documents in my file. Norman posted my name on two websites with disparaging remarks. My home address was posted on a third website. Norman Avery Llanes Jr. is my character witness. Owner, Norman Llanes, would not stop lying.

The answer was they don't see them very much. I went to our Wonderful sheriff's department in 4S Ranch,San Diego 92127 and guess what? The young guy who works inside told me I need to call over the phone to report- that this is ridiculous!!! I said but I have pictures of the person and all the stuff, I was told again you need to call the dispatch! There are no security guards driving or walking around for a long time. By The Ulta store used to be by Cop car with flashing lights- no longer there, no security guard by the banks I could find as I used to see them by the bank. This is ridiculous. The shopping center should be ashamed of the way they run the business. It's a super busy shopping center with kids running all over and now we have drug addicts openly doing their drugs just sitting by CVS because they know no one is ever going to bother them because Nobody patrols that area. Shame on you 4S town center, you make millions of dollars, there are no vacancies at this shopping center, and you should protect us and our children from drug addicts just sitting there because you don't wanna spend money on security guards who would be there. I am sure that with your high income from all those businesses you have enough budget to have patrol and drug addicts would not be sitting freely there for hours hanging out doing drugs if they know patrol/ security is there!
