But he needs to be here when needed, when his senior deputy quits, when she and a multitude ask him for assistance and an explanation. Most chief executives have vacations and other pressing obligations when conflicts arises. Responsible ones return or use technology to show leadership. My outrage is becoming tempered by my waning expectations of this administrator who exposes his cowardice with each passing day.*****I take back what I said about not posting about this mess anymore!
Scott, are you listening to the pain/anger of the posters? It was oozing out of the pores of my screen the other night. I couldn't have avoided it, if I had tried by leaving my house. It would have stayed on my mind even then.
It isn't even like this is the first time that he has abandoned PB and refused to come around when posters needed him and I have never seen anyone ask him to be here all of the time. Posters have personal lives and responsibilities too.
As one with experience, let me tell you that all professionals don't go off and have no communication with their office for long lengths of time.
Scott you asked this< " What in the hell are you expecting from just one man?" Let me ask you a question. What does that one man expect from the posters here? Words for his papers, books, speeches, etc.
Babble should be a two way street that runs both ways. It is now a four lane, running from the posters and a tiny dirt trail running from Bob to PB. It reminds me of my family, the distance between our cities is too far from them to drive to see me and it isn't too far for me to drive to see them.
I don't get what you aren't seeing here. Bob has chosen to disappear and leave confused and hurt people to cope with their questions and their fears.
"Toph, I agree about the lack of administration and I second the thought that Bob can take the photograph down now. I vote for a hot studmuffin from Holly wood. He might have a laptop. :-)"
