Home contracter for Trump household scores government job at EPA..

[HipChick]

A home improvement contractor married to one of Donald and Melania Trump’s former household staffers is now working as an official at the Environmental Protection Agency, the latest example of someone with a personal connection to the Trump family finding work in the administration.
According to public records, Kopec previously ran a contracting business from his home in Haskell, New Jersey, called Steve’s Tools in Motion. Kopec’s wife, Dagmara, previously worked for the Trump family in New York, according to a person familiar with her situation.

But hiring people at government agencies with little relevant experience can backfire, he said.

“If you put friends in high places and they don’t have the proper qualifications it can have disastrous results for the agency and for taxpayers,” Amey said. “We hope that public service positions are filled with people that are qualified to best serve the public interest.”

Steve Kopec did not answer multiple calls to his office line and didn’t respond to multiple requests for comment via email. Dagmara Kopec did not respond to multiple emails. Lopez, the EPA Region 2 administrator, also did not respond to questions about the circumstances of Steve Kopec’s hiring.

2. Hahahaha Im a retired home contractor, but never used this job description!

“Steve comes to us from private industry, where he fashioned his career around customer service and organizational efficiencies,” EPA Region 2 Administrator Pete Lopez wrote in the memo. “Steve is an experienced manager with skills in team building, management and organization.”

I should’ve applied at the EPA!

4. My guess is Trump didn't pay the guy, because that's what Trump does

and he's now given the person a government job to make up for shortchanging him.
