We can hardly wait to bring in a bunch of numbers for the boss:
- Just an FYI for the FOP and any other secret readers of this blog. The commander of 008 is refusing to allow officers the day off for the first annual J. Kupczyk golf outing.
The commander expects the overworked troops to pay $80 for a day of golf and food and no libations because they have to come into work right after. The commander was told that he could ask for officers from adjoining districts but refused to do so to accommodate the Officers who actually worked for Kupczyk. The answer to all of this was to move the golf outing to October sometime after the "children" are back in school and the violence settles down...wink wink and maybe then the Officers could get time due but no guarantees were or have been made. This is what passes for leadership in this department.
The XO of this district also likes to brag about how he has all this money in deferred comp and how the commander allows him to adjust his schedule to accommodate his family life....how nice!
I did not want to take away from the original post but wanted to share this info. Great job by the officers and glad you are ok. Excellent job and keep up your spirits! "The day soldiers stop bringing you their problems is the day you have stopped leading them. They have either lost confidence that you can help or concluded you do not care. Either case is a failure of leadership." Colin Powell
Somewhere, Kup is shaking his head in disgust.
