There’s only one thing worse than being laid-off after 30 years. It’s to work somewhere for 30 years and witness its deterioration. Some call the environment “cold” or “unfriendly.” I call it dying.
Its lack of luster and non-existent warmth begs
for change. It breathes a gasp of relief only for a short interval before the
next cycle of fear develops. Void of any personality and projecting only
numbers to allocate for the next project, it continues to amass buildings,
offices and staffing. The fact that it cannot sustain or afford its own growth
doesn’t stop the machine.
I can recall a better time. It was a period of
time when the system was small and simple. When the property was kept clean and
painted. Now the time, money and staffing isn’t able to meet the basic
requirements of yesteryear.
Expansion
has produced less staffing, money and time to take care of what exists. Too little,
too late to make-up for what should have been 20 years ago. So they continue to
march towards the exhaustion of accountability of their resources. Common sense
left the building a long time ago.
There appears to be a crisis between purpose and
outcome. One bad decision followed by another bad decision.
Where’s the accountability? Why is it- no one is held responsible?
Where’s the accountability? Why is it- no one is held responsible?
It’s
easy- follow the money.

We Meet Again,
