The time off...
This time off thing is killing me. We got a new sop the other day that came down from our company. This is irritating me very, very much. The policy that was put out by a General is almost being blatantly ignored. Now we back to the two working Saturday's again. I was under the impression that we were not supposed to be working these Saturday's. The letter read if I am not mistaken that we are only supposed to be working only if there is a planned event. When these leaders at lower levels are blowing off a General's policy letter. Well then if I blow off my leadership then why can't I? Someone explain that to me. This is garbage. We have still been working long hours. Still being threatened to work on Saturday's if production is not met, the policy letter said that work hours will not be tied to production. Anyway you try and put this the policy letter is still being blown off. You can slice this anyway you want but that is what is happening. Everyone I talk to in other BN's they are all getting off work at or a little after 1700 and no Saturday's like it's cool to do so. If this letter was put in place and then it's said that it was going to be reevaluated to see if it is feesible for this organization to continue doing so. How can you truly say if it truly works or not, if no one is actually following it. Then my soldiers are looking to me and are asking why are we not getting off like the policy letter states. I have no answers for them.

Could someone file a complaint? With IG, for example. Excuse me if this is a ridiculous suggestion...
ReplyDeleteI do think that your leadership group is setting a bad example by blowing off the CG's policy letter. Are they justifying it by saying that they are simply "adding to" the letter? I've heard that one before.
Fax the policy letter to USAREC. It is pretty ballsy to put something in writing that blatantly goes against the CG. Hell, while your at it fax it to the Brigade HQ too.
