It seems there's a lot of eyes inward, looking at the processes and programs put in place, and not a lot of eyes looking outward. Lots of "make work" that never goes anywhere. At the same time, there's some pretty drastic sequestration COAs being presented. Maybe we should save some airplanes and say goodbye 75% of the MAJCOM staff.
Been there and concur: work for work sake. Yes, someone thinks it's important, but the majority of it is just continued insanity. Literally (and not figuratively Biden-Literally) millions of man-hours wasted every year.
