Chamber Chronicle
The Hobbs Chamber of Commerce has thrown its support behind a pro‐posal in Congress to drug‐test welfare recipients.
The legisla on, spearheaded by Rep. Steve Pearce (R‐N.M.), would require drug‐tes ng for all new appli‐cants of the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) program. The proposal would allow a three‐month grace period for those already receiv‐ing benefits.
“The United States of America is a compassionate and generous na on, but it cannot con nue to subsidize drug abuse,” Chamber Chair Anne Dean said. “People choose to use drugs, and the business community does not want to con nue rewarding those bad choices through taxpayer‐funded programs like TANF.”
At its Oct. 20 board mee ng, Hobbs Chamber directors unanimous‐ly endorsed Pearce’s Pu ng Drug‐Free Families First Act. Dean said the board was par cularly in favor of the legisla on because provisions were included to protect children. If a par‐ent tests posi ve, a sponsor can be designated as a beneficiary on behalf of the children, so long as the sponsor tests nega ve.
According to the legisla on, a posi ve test would result in the deni‐al of benefits for one year unless the individual entered a rehabilita on
program at his or her own cost, in which case the individual could be re‐tested within six months and re‐apply for assistance. A second posi ve test would result in no assistance for three years. A third posi ve test would render an individual ineligible for benefits for life. All applicants would be required to pay for the tes ng in advance, with the s pula‐on that the funds would be reim‐
bursed in the event of a nega ve test result.
The federal government does not provide TANF assistance directly to individuals or families. TANF funding is delivered through block grants to states. New Mexico’s cash assistance program is known as NMWorks, through which the Human Services Department helps families determine whether they qualify for cash assis‐tance. According to the state Health & Human Services Department’s web‐site, the monthly benefit should be used to meet family needs such as housing, u li es and clothing costs. The life me limits to receive this as‐sistance is no more than 60 months unless a disability exists.
“This is the kind of legisla on that rewards those legi mately in need of assistance while encouraging drug users to re‐evaluate their priori es,” Dean said. “In these economic mes, it makes sense for the federal govern‐ment to cut drug abusers off the pub‐lic dole.”

Why are nega ve management prac ces so
prevalent?
They include yelling, cursing, insults (some mes
masked in sarcasm or masquerading as jokes), cri ‐
cizing subordinates in front of others, threatening
demo on or termina on, and talking to adults as if
they were children.
Why are so many managers insensi ve to the
demo va ng impact of focusing almost exclusively
on weaknesses and shortcomings without properly
acknowledging successes and accomplishments?
Do they really believe that causing resentment,
fear, or insecurity will produce be er results than
pride, self‐confidence, and enthusiasm?
Some managers inten onally use nega ve tac‐
cs because they think it’s an effec ve way to get
people to do what they’re told, but most managers
characterized by the people who work for them as
rude, inconsiderate, or abusive are totally unaware
of how inappropriate or counterproduc ve their
a empts to mo vate are. They think they’re just
being tough. The people under them think they’re
just being jerks.
Many good people act badly when they become
the boss because they’re under pressure from their
own boss to get results. Maybe they’re simply mim‐
icking the management styles of people they
worked for. Or maybe they want to dis nguish
themselves from ineffec ve managers on the other
extreme who try so hard to be everyone’s friend
that they don’t set or achieve high goals or hold
people accountable.
Whatever the reason, a far be er approach is to
treat everyone with respect by engaging and em‐
powering others through inspira on and example.
The best leaders bring out the best in people by
making them feel good about themselves and their
capabili es.
Inspira on is much more powerful than in mi‐
da on.
By the way, the same thing is true for parents
and coaches.
This is Michael Josephson reminding you that
character counts.
© 2011 Josephson Ins tute. Reprinted from Michael
Josephson’s Commentary with permission.
Inspira on, not in mida on, produces best results from employees
The Hobbs Chamber of Commerce is a CHARACTER COUNTS! Coali on member.
Only as we get closer to the top do we realize
there is no top. Instead, there are new peaks to
climb, new valleys to cross, new roads to travel
all leading to higher levels of achievement, sig‐
nificance and happiness. The best is yet to
come.

Economic Indicators
New Mexico’s seasonally adjusted unemploy‐ment rate was 6.6 percent in September 2011, un‐changed from August but down from 8.6 percent a year ago. The na onal unemployment rate re‐mained at 9.1 percent. Previously, New Mexico’s unemployment rate had fallen for six consecu ve months a er peaking at 8.7 percent at the start of the year.
The rate of over‐the‐year job growth, compar‐ing September 2011 with September 2010, was 0.2 percent, represen ng an increase of 1,700 jobs. This gain marked the fourth straight month of over‐the‐year job growth, following a 32‐month period of losses.
The slow recovery started a while back, but lack of significant momentum le the state’s job growth rate close to the zero line for over a year. A number of industries are now cau ously adding jobs, but there is con nuing evidence of restraint. The cur‐rent job situa on includes eight growing and five declining industries.
The educa onal & health services industry add‐ed 5,500 jobs, growing at a 4.6 percent rate since this me last year. This industry seems to always do well, slowing down during recessions, but never turning nega ve and losing jobs. As the largest pri‐vate‐sector industry, educa onal & health services’ consistent growth provides stability for the econo‐my as a whole.
Retail trade has made a comeback from previ‐ous losses to report 4,000 addi onal jobs for Sep‐tember, while wholesale trade posted a gain of 1,600 jobs. The mining industry reported another gain, up 1,700 jobs, following 14 months of losses that ended in 2010.
The financial ac vi es industry posted a gain of 1,900 jobs that followed three years of job losses ending earlier this year. The transporta on, ware‐housing & u li es industry gained 300 jobs, up 1.4
percent. Gains were also reported in leisure & hos‐pitality, up 400 jobs, and miscellaneous other ser‐vices, up 200.
The remaining four private‐sector industries each recorded declining employment. The profes‐sional & business services industry reported em‐ployment that was down 7,400 jobs from last year. Construc on was down 4,300 jobs over the year, which is especially disappoin ng when considering the jobs previously lost since 2008.
The informa on industry reported employment levels that were down 200 jobs from last year, con‐nuing a recent trend. The manufacturing industry,
down 100 jobs, has posted erra c job growth in 2011, bouncing between posi ve and nega ve ter‐ritory. Manufacturing employment has taken dev‐asta ng losses over the last decade.
Government employment registered a net de‐crease of 1,900 jobs from the year‐ago total, with losses concentrated at the local level. Reported survey data for local government show employ‐ment down 2,300 jobs since this me last year. Federal employment was up by 400 jobs, while state government reported employment that was unchanged from last year.

Although the 2011 NJCAA Division I Men’s and Women’s Cross Country Na onal Championship Meet is officially scheduled to last only a few hours, host school New Mexico Junior College has been dil‐igently preparing for it for well over a year. The na onal meet, which will be held Saturday, Nov. 12, at Oco llo Park Golf Course in Hobbs, will bring in about 750 of the top cross‐country athletes. Last year’s championship meet was held in Spartan‐burg, S.C. The women’s 5,000‐meter race is scheduled to begin at 10:00 a.m. Saturday, with the men’s 8,000‐meter race to begin at 11:00 a.m. “We have to think of everything,” NMJC Presi‐dent Steve McCleery said. “We want this to be a gold standard, not only for New Mexico Junior Col‐lege and the NJCAA, but also for . . . Hobbs.” With necessi es such as parking, tents for offi‐cials, ming equipment, marking the course, food and lodging, flights, signage, and even port‐a‐po es for the event, NMJC has been working over me to ensure that the event is successful in every aspect. Many of the details at NMJC fall to Kevin Waters, the college’s cross‐country coach. For the Nov. 12 meet, Waters will see that both the course and the event meet NJCAA standards, including signs, dis‐tance markers, fences and ropes. He frequently walks the golf course just to envision the races since he is solely responsible for clearly marking the men’s and women’s courses. “You don’t want to confuse the runners. You want it to be easy for them to know where to turn,” he said. “You don’t want the coaches or athletes coming back and saying it wasn’t fair for any rea‐son.” Oco llo Park Golf Course has been taking care of
details as well. Runners have long u lized the course for cross country meets, but according to Doug Lyle, Oco llo’s golf pro, this is by far the largest that’s ev‐er been held there. Along with the athletes will come coaches, fami‐ly, friends, and other supporters, as well as a host of interested spectators. As a result, hotels and restau‐rants in Lea County and the surrounding region have been put on alert to expect a high volume of pa‐trons, with projec ons ranging anywhere from 3,500 to 5,000 visitors. “We’re extremely honored to host this year’s championship meet, which promises to be a great event for NMJC, the City of Hobbs, Lea County, and the surrounding area,” McCleery, said. “We genuine‐ly hope that everyone has a posi ve experience dur‐ing their me in Hobbs at this historic event.” For more informa on about the na onal cross coun‐try meet or to volunteer, please contact Kevin Wa‐ters at 575.492.2743 or NMJC Athle c Director Don Worth at 575.492.2741.
NMJC Set to Host Cross Country Na onal Championships
Hobbs businesses, especially restaurants and hotels, are en‐couraged to display signs like the one above to welcome par c‐ipants and spectators during the week of the na onal junior college cross country championships hosted in Hobbs.

Lea County Hearts & Hands Against Hunger, in coordina on with the J. F Maddox Founda on, is concerned by the hunger affec ng neighbors, friends and their families, and the greater communi‐ty. Because this issue is impossible to address with‐out significant community input and support, the public is invited to join the fight to end hunger in Lea County. Hunger has been and con nues to be a growing problem in many communi es across the state, in‐cluding Lea County. While hunger is a fundamental symptom of poverty, it is rarely spoken about or acknowledged as a cri cal issue. Community re‐sources can be stretched very thin, difficult to access or non‐existent, especially for those who may not have transporta on or who may not qualify under individual program guidelines. Rural, geographic iso‐la on also presents many challenges to accessing resources.
Lea County Hearts & Hands Against Hunger will begin its campaign by hos ng a series of community mee ngs in each of the five municipali es in Lea County. The schedule for these mee ngs is as fol‐lows: Wednesday, November 9, 10:00 a.m., Woolworth
