Now if I work my ass off and Initech ships a few extra units, I don't see another dime, so where's the motivation? And here's something else, Bob: I have eight different bosses right now. "<br />" I beg your pardon?"<br />"Eight bosses."<br />" Eight? "<br />"Eight, Bob. So that means that when I make a mistake, I have eight different people coming by to tell me about it. That's my only real motivation is not to be hassled, that and the fear of losing my job. But you know, Bob, that will only make someone work just hard enough not to get fired.

Task Force 61, Task Element 61.1.2.3, you know.<br /><br />Have all the reasonably related Task Forces work for a Vice Admiral and call the sum of the parts a "Numbered fleet". Make it by function, like Navships & all its chillun go under 20th fleet. Seagoing fleets get numbers 1-20. Each work for the named (geographically) fleet commander. PacFlt, CentFlt, HomeShipFleet, Home AirFleet. Home Administrative Fleet.<br /><br />Alternatively, the shore outfits get named a Bureau and function, BuPer&Admin. Buships, BuAir, BuTrain, BuLog, BuMed. BuShips Task Force 1 = Puget Sound Shipbuilding and Repair, as an example.<br /><br />What to call the guy with lineal number 1? Commander, US Fleets. Number? 0 or 100, whichever.<br /><br />Works directly for Sec Nav. Call it a "board": Gen Board, InSurv Board, like that.<br /><br />Just a suggestion.Grandpa Bluewaternoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7704146.post-14309009993234480112010-10-11T09:46:34.000-04:002010-10-11T09:46:34.000-04:00Wha, Uhhh, Huh!?!?!
