No one in the Navy had warm fuzzies over the CNO. I'm not saying she wasn't qualified, just saying she's not a warrior. She was a manager.
Then we have two years to right a wrong.
Yep.

Cutting the budget by 8% and reducing the workforce is bound to increase readiness.

I do not have strong enough words for the firing of Jim Slife and CQ Brown.
My phone has nearly exploded since the news dropped, rumors started on Tuesday.
Good. I hope they are both relegated to a life of shame for the real harm they have done to the men and women of AFSOC and the larger AF. I hope they’re both made to pay a penalty over their service for the rest of their lives.

The CNO isn’t supposed to be a warrior. Have you seen how fat the Navy is? None of them are warriors anymore.
I want a CNO who is a manager. Manage the people and the programs. There’s far too many broken ships out there because the people don’t know how to do their jobs (see Appendix A where a carrier just crashed into a giant merchant vessel). The CAPT is a direct reflection of his leadership.

She was a poor manager. Readiness in the Navy has been trash for at least 10 years. Mishaps everywhere.

We've had great CNOs who were warriors; at least had the warrior mindset. They did very well. Of course by the time you get that 4th star you should have proven your bona fides as a manager/leader, but she has not been popular and has been viewed as toting the company line of all those other distracting priorities and objectives at the risk of warfighting capabilities.
I never said she was a good one.
Any of our .gov bois verify this?

Imagine him and his doofus bros reading through 4.5 million 5 bullet point messages.
Your federal government is getting cut by someone with no idea how it works, what people do, without clearance or access to programs that are being cut. Everything is gonna work like the DMV moving forward…

Yup, that's it. Some in a different format...but...yeah
What’s the downside? It already works like that, might as well work like that at a cost savings.

To me the downside is calling the Va to get my GI bill sorted and waiting 5 hours instead of 5 mins. Calling the IRS to ask a question and getting a call back a month later instead of an hour later. These are things that will happen. They are real downsides.

Have you used the VA for anything since you’ve gotten out? Everyone likes to rip on the VA, but they had excellent customer service in their education department. They were able to advise me into getting almost 7 years of benefits out of my 48 months. I never waited more than 5 mins to talk to a human being, and it was almost always the fault of someone at my school when I didn’t get paid.
