"Why do you want to talk to me, so you can keep making fat jokes?" United Teachers Federation lobbyist Paul Egan asked the Daily News Thursday outside his home.

I worked for a temporary secretarial agency several years ago. One of the jobs was at a union office where the union bigshots would meet. They didn’t speak obscenely to me, but you couldn’t help overhearing them talking in the next office. I heard words there that were like juvenile delinquents trying to outdo each other making up trashy cuss words. Tough guys; punks. Today, I’d walk out the first fifteen minutes; should have done then.
"Why do you want to talk to me, so you can keep making fat jokes?" United Teachers Federation lobbyist Paul Egan asked the Daily News Thursday outside his home.
Typical for union thugs. There will be some bricks in the restaurant window in the near future.
Meet Paul Egan — chiseler, cheat and United Federation of Teachers honcho Michael Mulgrew’s main man in Albany.
Egan claims the restaurant incident was about poor service, not tab chiseling.
After all, Egan himself was cited 10 years ago by then-Special Schools Investigator Edward Stancik for helping kids he allegedly was teaching at IS 133 cheat on math exams — eventually spending five months in one of the Department of Education’s notorious rubber rooms.
Then he lands in the union job — an interesting, if not instructive, career progression: For Egan, neither kids nor taxpayers ever get an even break.

A hulking teacher’s union honcho whose big mouth got him bounced by cops from an Albany restaurant after he complained his quail was too small was previously reprimanded as a teacher after being accused of brazenly helping test-taking students cheat, officials said today.
Food-lovin’ lobbyist Paul Egan was named in a scathing 2000 report by the Department of Education investigator as helping a group of Bronx middle-school students taking a city-wide math exam get the right answers to the test by using “several different methods to cheat.”
The then-investigator, Edward Stancik, said Egan while proctoring the 1999 exam “purposely displayed the answers to the first 11 questions by leaving them unguarded on his desk for the students to find,” and that he urged students to check individual answers after seeing they had gotten them wrong.
***I knew a liberal betch whose favorite trick was to complain about every meal she ever ate in a restaurant. Got a lot of price reductions. And she was proud of it. ***
I’ve known a couple of people like that. they did it for FREE MEALS, and did it on purpose.
He’s lucky as HECK he didn’t wind up in jail, with him having such a pretty mouth!, Signed, Bubba, #79264578
While he was sunbathing on South Beach some one painted a large white “H” with a circle around it, on his back. Three choppers made approaches and tried landings.
I read your link....what a bad boy...plus he’s been scamming meals elsewhere by his loony brand of intimidation. He is educated enough to know that when you order quail, that quail aren’t that large
I bet the guy who knows several methods of cheating to “help” students cheat on a math test is an expert in several methods of ballot box stuffing. Wonder what other organizations he belongs to besides the union?
Glad to see that “Dreams From My Father” ghostwriter get a little work during these hard economic times.
I think your conclusion that Edgan’s actions was a shakedown attempt is correct based upon his background. The idea that the waiters spilled drinks makes me think that the blame should be on the drunken behavior of his comrads. I bet they left quite a mess and no tip.
