I am writing this post from a seat on a crowded ICE train heading northwards to begin the first part of a trip for me. Back to Shopping Mall for a series of meetings and to do some things on the house. I will also do some medical tourism-in the interest of making someone else file an insurance claim for a change.
Think about that. I am writing this post from the inside of a train going 190 km /hr. And this can be done all over Germany-and elsewhere in Europe. In the US? Not so much.
So I am trying to console myself. If you have to be stuck in the middle of a worthless reorganization instituted by a worthless piece of shit selfish man, at least its nice to have good things to do during one's own time. I guess things could be worse. A lot worse.
Where this is going and how it it is going to play out, I am not sure. I have now been witness to two conversations where leadership is slowly waking up to what a disaster this move is. But will they rise up and speak out against the abomination of personal aggrandizement and empire building? Not a chance.
And that my friends is why American flag officers just suck.
In the meantime-there is the joy of the train.
