Asked For A Job

Moore explained that Langelle had written, seeking employment as manager at Rappahannock following his graduation from the University of Virginia. According to Moore, he told Langelle his youth and inexperience prevented his being considered for either top or middle management positions. Instead, Moore said he offered the young man a job at Camelback so he could “learn from the ground up.”

Moore reported that Langelle “did a good job at his work” but was dissatisfied because he wasn’t given enough time to talk to Camelback’s manager. Mobre said Langelle wrote a memorandum and then became very upset because he wasn’t allowed to appear at Camelback’s Board of Director’s meeting in regard to the memorandum.

In view of Langelle’s unhappiness with his situation, Moore said he suggested that the young man resign.

“He still wanted to come to Rappahannock,” Moore continued. “Even though he’s expressed such dissatisfaction today with the idea of an Alpine slide, he still wanted to see one here,” maintained Moore.

“I came to the conclusion three hours ago that the young man was disgruntled,” commented BZA member Herbert Barksdale. “I make a motion that we disregard what the young man has said and move on.”

Langelle defended his observations as fair and without malice and added one last comment in regard to the Camelback operation, telling the BZA that the Alpine slide’s landing at the bottom of the ride was unsafe while the top lacked water, shade and bathroom facilities
