âevery single step along the way of the redesign processâ
That would be a beginning, having an actual process. Dying on the vine is not one.
So I guess that rat-fucking her fellow State Department employees somehow wasnât the glamorous job she expected? Who knew?
âAdmittedly, the department could do a better job of communicating every single step along the way of the redesign process,â State Department spokeswoman Heather Nauert said earlier in November. âThere is a morale issue and the department realizes that we need to say more.â
Yes, "Pack your goddamned desk and get out, you're fired!!" goes down better when relayed in a soothing, reassuring tone.Is reorganize the new word for âdismantleâ???
If Rex does a good enough job in destroying the State Department maybe Putin will make him a Hero of the Soviet Union.
Just as âdehiredâ is the new corporate euphemism for fired.
Nope. Itâs been that for a long time. âRight-sizingâ also.
I expect she thought that the job was to make a new fiefdom in her and her croniesâ image, not just to commit random arson.
Sounds like theyâre finding out that eventually, downsizing eats its own.
that his staffing patterns âthreaten to undermine the long-term health and effectiveness of American diplomacy.
For Russia, feature, not bug?
âA senior official at the State Department tasked with reorganizing the agency has left the position just three months after she was appointed to the position.â
Blowback after Lavrov angrily demanded his box be directly above Tillersonâs in the org chart.
to undermine the long-term health and effectiveness
of American diplomacy
Chalk up another score âŚ
So much winning ! â
The gig economy meets the Trump staffing carousel.
âthreaten to undermine the long-term health and effectiveness of American diplomacy.â
âYes, that is the plan.â
Has anyone in Tillersonâs State Department* ever offered to explain exactly how this reorganization is intended to enhance American diplomacy? Is it somehow a strategic advantage for the left hand not to know what the right hand is doing? Is it to this nationâs sovereign advantage to work against the best diplomatic interests of this nation?
- i canât, in good conscience, refer to the State Department as the US State Department. It no longer represents or serves the interests of this nation. It now exists only to serve the very secretive and suspicious interests of Rex Tillerson, who only works in the position of what was once the US Secretary of State.
The smart rats know this ship is going down as soon as they set foot on it. Getting a head start on swimming before it blows and takes the late jumpers with it.
For anyone who has ever worked in a company that has been taken over by another company and suddenly found themselves reporting to some idiot who has no idea what you do, or why you do it, and yet feels perfectly qualified to make staffing and budgeting decisions that undermine and destroy the very mission of the department, these defections and loss of morale are intensely familiar. Now that we are deep into the experiment of what happens when a âbusinessmanâ runs the government, my only question is when does it end and will we be able to recover?
I was a corporate creature for 20 years prior to my second career. What youâre saying makes an enormous amount of sense. However I would add that Tillersonâs mismanagement of the Department of State raises real questions in my mind how effective he was at Exxon.
Of course, maybe he fit right in. He seems to be deeply secretive a****** who is constantly acting like he has something to hide if not surrounded by co-conspirators.
This entire Administration is a joke. Everyday Trump demonstrates that he is getting crazier and crazier, and the people he has put in power are there specifically to destroy the federal government. In that respect Tillerson is just a variation on the theme.
Si, just as âtax reformâ is the new term for âmassive tax cuts for the super-wealthy.â
Pretty sure he already did.
