Disaster in the Making

[jaF0]

You seem to be ...

... upset.

 

[Klinkster]

... upset.

Nope.

I'm just smarter than you Jeffro.

Or should I call you Double Naught 10?

 

[DeluxAuto]

We are on DHS staff.....that's what you brought up....that's what I am talking about.
You seem to be unable to answer any question I ask.
Deflection?
Incapable?
Don't wanna?

No, I would fire you for gross incompetence. Question answered.

 

[Klinkster]

No, I would fire you for gross incompetence. Question answered.

Just more deflection Luk. That's not an answer.
And still....you answered no question I have asked.
You know what happens to people who do that to me?
I can assure you, that they have been fired in a heartbeat.

But carry on. It's what you do.

President Donald Trump says acting Homeland Security Secretary Kevin McAleenan is stepping down.

According to the AP

Just plopped it here because there’s too many dominos falling.

Not really, he was only the acting director and expressed his wish to return to the private sector.

I was given some background information yesterday that I needed to do a little research on. Everything that I could check out matched what I was told so here goes.

A radical group within the Kurdish area, the PKK, and a few other groups have been at war with the Turk's for over 40 years now. PKK roughly translates to Kurdish Worker's Party and their politics is exactly what the name infers, they are a far left Marxist organization that is listed as a terrorist organization by the UN and other like institutions. They are fairly large with an estimate of over 30,000 fighters. They were based primarily in Northern Iraq.

With the rise of ISIS they turned their attention to that particular terrorist organization and as ISIS was pushed out of Iraq into Northern Syria they followed along. They made up a large part of the Kurdish "Allies" that we were using as surrogates in the fight against ISIS.

So these "Allies" received training, weapons, and supplies from the Special Forces teams that were sent in to specifically do that training.

With the collapse of ISIS these US trained and equipped terrorists could turn their attention back to their primary enemy, Turkey.

Turkey may not be the best neighbor on the block but they are still a NATO ally. Starting to get the picture now?

The politics of the Mid-East are seriously complicated. As if being primarily tribal in nature isn't bad enough there are tribes within tribes. And this is the dort of situation that nations that engage in proxy wars (the US in this instance) end up in. It's not as if Machiavelli didn't warn leaders of nations about the problem some 600 years ago.

Anyway, what is the US to do? Create a "safe haven" for terrorists targeting a NATO ally or get the hell out and let the local belligerents sort their differences out?

You miss my point, entirely.
I am telling you history, and how things work in the corporate world.
I can tell you more of other companies I know of, I worked for as a contractor. Some I know, as friends of mine worked for them.

Again, sometimes you hit a good fit for a job the first shot.
Sometimes you don't.
And if you don't, and you don't fix it, well, whaddya think happens?
Best to get the bad one outa there, and replace him.

Anyone in corporate America with his failure rate and hiring quality people would be out of the job by now.

And no other president has had anywhere near this kind of turnover at the top of his cabinet.

Don’t know much about business do you?

 

[zipman]

Don’t know much about business do you?

Clearly I know a lot more than you.

In what world would a manager or leader not be held accountable for failing to find quality talent?

And Trump has done this at multiple positions. He's terrible at it and his management style is even worse.

 

[cowslinger64]

Don’t know much about business do you?

And you do? You worship this guy, think he really knows anything about business? Perhaps just bad business..

oh... and he's the best counter evah!!!

“You’ve taken business bankruptcies six times.”
–Hillary Clinton

“On occasion – four times – we used certain laws that are there.”

–Donald Trump

THE FACT CHECKER | Clinton is correct.

Trump’s companies have filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection, which means a company can remain in business while wiping away many of its debts. The bankruptcy court ultimately approves a corporate budget and a plan to repay remaining debts; often shareholders lose much of their equity.

Trump’s Taj Mahal opened in April 1990 in Atlantic City, but six months later, “defaulted on interest payments to bondholders as his finances went into a tailspin,” The Washington Post’s Robert O’Harrow found. In July 1991, Trump’s Taj Mahal filed for bankruptcy. He could not keep up with debts on two other Atlantic City casinos, and those two properties declared bankruptcy in 1992. A fourth property, the Plaza Hotel in New York, declared bankruptcy in 1992 after amassing debt.

PolitiFact uncovered two more bankruptcies filed after 1992, totaling six. Trump Hotels and Casinos Resorts filed for bankruptcy again in 2004, after accruing about $1.8 billion in debt. Trump Entertainment Resorts also declared bankruptcy in 2009, after being hit hard during the 2008 recession.

Why the discrepancy? Perhaps this will give us an idea: Trump told Washington Post reporters that he counted the first three bankruptcies as just one.

Have you ever tried to make a post without a bunch of bullshit insults in it?

What bullshit insults? The facts about Trump's bankruptcies?

All that moron can do is throw out the same stupid insult.

As if you can just keep hiring bad people who fail at the same position in corporate America with no consequences.

You can keep repeating that all you want. I explained my perspective which is based on real world experience whereas yours is solely based on a desire to defend Trump.

Say it a few more times, though. I'm one of the RWCJ will believe it.

Nope. I’m telling you how it works in business.
Sometimes you get the perfect guy to fill a spot. Sometimes you don’t. Sometimes after several people, you get a great fit, only to have that person quit, and go to a competitor.
If someone is not working out, or as well as expected or required, it’s better to replace them, than to put up with the inefficiencies. That is what a good manager does.

If you want to rant and rave about how many people go in and out the door, it shows you don’t know how business works.

Maybe in the fast food world.

Not at the top of an organization.

Suggesting otherwise is simply moronic.

And when someone has such a disastrous record for finding and retaining talent like Trump has they are the ones who are either removed from the hiring process or they get removed from the company.

That is how business works

 

[jaF0]

He doesn't even know that the sergeant he thinks is a dumkoph owns a major toy company.

So you completely fail to rebut my post but offer up insults.


Hypocrite much?

Sorry.
I have over 40 years experience that says you are wrong.

A "perfect fit" for trump is someone who will do as he says at all times.


Why haven't you dumbfucks figured that out after all this time?

 

[zipman]

Sorry.

LOL, sure you do.

40 years of working in the fast food industry.

 

[Saint Peter]

fuck up

move up

 

[SpeareChucker]

Okay bro, that was a good summation of the situation
but I don't think any of these idiots are going to pay
a lick of attention to it...

 

[cowslinger64]

LOL, sure you do.

40 years of working in the fast food industry.
