Holy shit! So, there I am sitting in a room undergoing training for my job (federal job so there are a bunch of people from around the country) and one of my co-workers asks a question about something we do in our region but the trainers said wasn't necessary.
Pretty fucking harmless right??????
NO!!!!!!!!
all of a sudden MY job is in jeopardy because "the people" from Phoenix are causing trouble (apparently we are now "cocky, arrogant, and undermining the trainers"). Not only do they call the manager of the entire region, but then he has to call my boss who has the day off who then text's me and asked "what the hell are you saying? shut up and keep your head down". Can't fucking wait to get back, it's going to be a fucking ball.
:piss workplace drama :piss2
-
that's pretty batshit.
-
I don't even follow how you were involved other than being a co-worker in the same training session as the dude who asked a stupid question. ???

looks like you are at the bottom of the kick down chain :
Trainer thinks "what the firk, why are they asking questions about that!? They shouldn't be doing that at all! unnecessary time and resources spent on this.
Trainer probably calls his manager : "Why are the Phoenix staff doing <this> ? and asking questions about this? We should be doing this"
Trainer manager calls region manager: "What is this? why are they doing this?"
region manager then kicks your direct boss : "what is this!?"
your boss looks down and has only one set of people to kick, that's where you guys come in.
the person at the bottom always gets the kicking, even if it's nothing to do with you. :(
this, this is pretty much it.
The bitch of it is, if the trainer had just fucking said something to my co-worker (or to me) this all would have been resolved without any drama. How naive I am to think that would ever happen

Phoenix thinks they're hot shit now since they got that university.
-
That's Phoenix for you, always causing trouble.

Congrats, you're at the bottom of the food chain

On the bright side he works for the government so he doesn't really need to work for the rest of his life.

You really have no fucking clue what you're talking about.

No he doesn't. He really doesn't.

filthy polifuck

so, uh, should whatever the thing is be done or not, in your opinion? anyway, this is a horrible situation, people shouldn't be pressured not to ask questions if they're legitimate.

My opinion? honestly, it doesn't matter if we do it in every "duty to assist" (DTA) letter, but it is mandatory in our DTA letters for when a veteran is making a claim for an increase in his/her benefits.
With that said. Why waste time doing it for every letter, especially when you have a quota to make? Even if it is not incorrect to do it.
