Results

A few days ago some senior top leadership had a big talk with the whole platoon and let anyone voice any problems. The guys with the most complaints shouldn't have been talking at all. The results of this is problems snowball. When someone on top is mad he yells at his subordinates and the problems just get bigger as they come down hill. At the bottom they hit the lowest guy the hardest. In this case we are the lowest guys. Some straight up stupidity resulted. People complained about being punished in ways only those farther up the food chain are able to be punished. The result was a "surprise" pt test today and tomorrow. The reason it was surprise and no one was told was so that people wouldn't go get a profile so they could skip it. If you fail a pt test you get a negative counseling and you get punished either way. Quite a few failed. The other thing that resulted was we now have a roster that we have to sign out and back in whenever we go anywhere, even when we are released. Even with this new system we still had a failure to report at a normally scheduled formation. This is the stupidity that results when people complain to their bosses boss.

As a luxury house from France, louis vuitton traditionally loves to add several French words on the louis vuitton bags name. It may reflect a tiny aspect of the national language arrogance across the country for several centuries. So anything labeling on French costs 10 times more than it should be, such as the Embossed Leather . Etoile which means star in French is an uncommonly suitable name for the Embossed Patterns from LV 2009 fall and winter collection.
