Here we go again

It's really starting to get out of hand. What's that you ask. Well right now no one even cares if we enlist a grad or not. All anyone cares about is a senior or a reserve contract. Even better how about a senior that joins the reserves. Oh and since some people are not making the senior mission guess what the knee jerk reaction is? You guessed right make us work late. So only after two years the powers that be wants to take back a successful policy and make everyone work 18 hour days again. Awesome just fucking awesome. I am starting to see the toxicity come back too. There is drums beating about working on Saturday again. Really? I was under the impression that we were all making mission hand over fist. So the reaction now is since the war is winding down the Army don't need that many people anymore, hey I know why don't we make our field force work longer and dumber during a time when they don't need to. Yep that's the answer. Take for instance company mass prospecting on a fucking Saturday, yeah that worked in the past lol. I don't remember people tripping like this when we were short of people. Yes I understand the mission never ends. But its also at its lowest point in years, or since I can remember. But in order for us to make it we are going to have to start working on weekends and working later. Well what about the last two Damn years when hardly any weekends were worked and the mission was higher and we still made it. Honestly there is not one bit of justification for it. This is where the next set of problems are going to come from its this bullshit right here. Hey nevermind the video that the General and the Sergeant Major put out telling us hey good job on making last years mission. But to congratulate everyone and as a reward hey you will have to work Saturday to make up shorfalls on a MAP and possibly work late prospecting again. Oh and by the way fill out this slide deck explaining your work ethic because you didn't write a contract. Just goes to show you nothing is going to change out here never has and never will. No matter what we do its never good enough and I am starting to see some leadership again that cares about nothing but the mission.
