FIRST OF ALL I AM NOT GOING TO ENTER MY NANE AND ADDRESS BECAUSE UNDER THIS SYSTEM YOU ARE GOING TO IMPLEMENT , I COULD THEN BE FIRED THE VERY NEXT DAY THIS SYSTEM IS IMPLEMENTED. TELL ME THIS ISN'T TRUE!!!! I AM LOOKING AT THE GUIDING PRINCIPALS. IF ANYONE IN WASHINGTON REALLY THINKS THIS IS THE RIGHT WAY TO GO, PLEASE LET THEM BE UNDER THIS SAME SYSTEM. IF THIS IS SO GOOD LET MY CONGRESSMAN BE UNDER THE SAME SYSTEM. I'M SORRY TO SAY THAT THIS SYSTEM IS THE GOOD OLD BOY SYSTEM THAT WE FOUGHT SO HARD TO GET RID OF YEARS AGO. IF YOU GO TO WORK AND DO YOUR JOB EVERY DAY YOU STILL COULD BE LET GO WITHOUT ANY GOOD REASON. IN ORDER TO BE SAFE YOU MUST BE A REAL BROWN NOSER. I THINK THIS SYSTEM STINKS. BUT I ONLY HAVE A FEW YEARS TO GO BUT I PITTY THE NEWER EMPLOYES. A LITTLE BACKGROUND ON ME. I AM A VIETNAM VET. I SPENT ONE YEAR IN NAM. I NOW HAVE 26 YEARS OF FEDERAL SERVICE.I DO MY JOB WELL AND DON'T ABUSE MY SICK LEAVE. I NEVER HAVE HAD A DISCIPLINARY ACTION AGAINST ME. I AM A GOOD EMPLOYEE BUT UNDER THIS NEW SYSTEM IT WILL MEAN NOTHING. IF THIS SYSTEM GOES INTO ACTION IT WILL BE THE DOWN FALL OF THE FEDERAL EMPLOYEE. YOU WILL HAVE TO THEN CONTRACT ALL OF YOUR WORK OUT AND MAYBE THAT IS WHAT YOU WANT BUT YOU WILL BE SHORTCHANGING THE SOILDER IN THE FIELD. BUT THOSE DEATHS WILL BE ON YOUR HEAD NOT MINE. GOD HELP US ALL IF YOU DO THIS. A WG MACHINIST AT THE ROCK ISLAND ARSENAL.
