So I did something tonight. I sat here and read the crap that I have posted in here over the last year. Man I am/was one disgruntled individual. But a lot of what I have said in here is true. The MEPS thing is still true. Hell we got a phone call about a guy needing a spf today and he was supposed to process tomorrow. Some things never change I see. Oh well, I sort of expected it today. Guess everyone that decides to join through me for now on I will just do a spf change on them no matter what. Anyhow that toxic style leadership I have been describing does and still does exist. Although it's not as bad as it was. Either that joker is feeling some heat or he is just getting older. Who the hell knows. I do know this I should have blown this all open a long time ago when I was asked to. But as it stands right now I think Rome is falling. Take that how ever you want...I am going to continue posting on here. I was wondering if that person from the HQ is still interested?

Rant...

Okay here goes. I am the type of person to let shit build up and then just blow up. That is a big flaw in me that I need to correct. So bear with me here on my latest rant. The MEPS here is absolutely fucked up beyond repair. The powers that be need to completely clean that place out and start over fresh. I have never seen such bullshit in all my life. Med reads you can forget about this place. They get lost, spfs get lost or not done. They should call this place "good luck with that" The doc there fails everyone on the airborne physical. How the fuck can everyone that goes through that place fail that test? Someone needs to explain that one. I know of one MEPS where almost everyone passes the Airborne physical not here. They will let the guy get a damn job that requires that physical before they take the physical. Then the fucking doc there will fail them. Then the kid is all pissed off that they fail the airborne physical and then they have to reno. But usually they will fucking dep loss. Complete stupidity. I mean how damn hard is it to go ahead and do the Airborne portion of the physical before the kids take a job? I mean really how hard is that? That needs to be explained.

Oh hell and let me not get on the subject of projections. I cannot count how many we have lost over the last month due to the bullshit from this place. Bullshit like you get a guy projected within the 72 hour rule then at the last minute you get a phone call saying an applicant needs a spf change. Are you fucking kidding me? I mean you have a person projected the right way and then you are told within less than 24 hours your person needs a spf. Is this something that should have been caught oh lets say when the fucking projection was made. This type of monkey business goes on everyday. I wish I would have taken notes so I can say it with a little more conviction on here.

And now we come back to the time off policy again. Today we get an email where we have to enter in the recruiters requirements for the day. Then at the end of the day we have to send back what they made. And guess what? If they didn't make their requirements then they have to stay until 2000 or until the requirements are met. Did the policy change? I thought the time off policy was not supposed to be held to production. If it's changed then so be it. But I have saw nothing of the sort. But that is what is being done plain and simple. To me that is bullshit.

I love it...It's snowing like hell outside and all anyone can think about is making phone calls from the house. I don't know about you but this is a real good idea. People are worried about the snow outside and getting their driveways shoveled out and you want them to make phone calls to seniors, grads, etc. Yeah there is going to be some quality appointments out of that (Makes Fart Sound). I mean is that where everyone's mind is? The numbers, the contacts, and that everyone is so worried about phone calls that we have to have our guys do them on a day when it's a damn blizzard outside? I have never understood this and probably never will.

I love the term operational mission. I can tell you how this term is being used. So try and stay with me on this. Last year this time or somewhere around this time. Our company was putting in about 70 combined contracts a month. Now fast forward to the present. Right now the economy is in the shitter, people are joining in record numbers, hours have been cut back, and to top it all off the mission is lower. But are some satisfied with this? NO!! So now I have been hearing the term "operational mission" So what this means is just because we wrote so many people last year. Now the thinking is we should write that many now. Which in a way is true. But the mission was cut back for a reason. And here is what kills me. When we are told we need x amount of people we step up and provide. But now when it has been cut back and given a hint of a break, I guess some don't see it that way. They are mad that the mission has been cut in half. Well just venting a little. I know not everyone will see what I am saying.

Again starting to get out of control. Just the other day an email was sent out about basically taking away our saturday if do not make the requirements. I thought the time off policy was not tied to production. But some fail to read this. So the way I see it this will be our third Saturday that we will have to work. That is just absolutely awesome.

Being lied to

I love how some of these leaders out here will tell you one thing and then do another. Tell you what, if you don't have your word then you have nothing to me.
