Peter Principle - Promote to highest levels of incompetency! - Recensione dipendente - Special Agent Retired presso Environmental Protection Agency

•Supervisory personnel only have one ambition...continue their rise to the top away from the real work! •Deputy Directors caught “red handed” engaging in illicit, extramarital sexual affairs (intercourse) on government desks with married subordinates bringing about embarrassment to this tiny sub-organization within the larger EPA agency. Their punishment? Promoted to the next highest level. •Field agents who converted their agency issued government cars for personal use have had these cars broken into at casinos and their agency issued firearms stolen. You would expect an investigation resulting in the immediate dismissal of such lapses of character and integrity, however, these individuals remained with the agency and were later promoted to supervisory positions. •While those SAs in the field actually work toward satisfying the organization’s mission, the supervisory personnel work toward advancing their own objectives. •Do more with much less is not just a quip it us an actuality. Budget cuts because the Criminal Investigations Division is the “red headed stepchild” of the EPA who is largely in bed with the corporate world. If you only knew how much wrangling is done to preclude communities from knowing the reality of the dangerous consumption of toxic drinking water. The corporate works through lobbyists write the very rules and regulations they then proceed to violate. Their intimacy with the regulations allows them to fully understand and take advantage of the loop holes in the very rules, practices and statutes they authored to protect human health and the environment.
