Ok well As some of you know Im in the Law Enforcement/Security business. I am a Federal Officer and I currently work at a Research Institute Her in Frederick MD. Well we have our ups and downs but My one complaint is our apparent Lack of effective leadership. I will not say anything BAD per se because we do have great guys in leader posts. its just we run things ,in my opinion, like a second rate 3 ring circus.
Ordinarily its not bad. but this week It got me. BAD. Ok so I work 5 days a week. not a problem. On my Thursday I was notified that due to the lack of planning I was being held over for a second shift. OK happens sometimes. And then again on my Friday. Now this is BS. Its not an emergency, nothing happened. It was our Lack of effective leaders that did not schedule the correct number of personnel to cover the shift. So I get to cover it if I like it or not. I do not mind overtime, I actually do it alot. But when Im forced to do it (4 times in 40 days forced) and then Back to back forced, we need someone to take a step back and say its not right. Of course as a weekend supervisor and relatively low on the pole, my opinion is not worth much, even though leading people was my job for 11 years in the mildly stressful job called Combat Arms and 4 of those years in the "hostile work environment" called the Sunni triangle. I dont know. Maybe im just thinking too much. It'll all change when Im running things..... Yea right.
