I hear being a general under Obama is a short term career job.

Guess he might as well polish up the fishing rods and go fishing.

If he's going to run his mouth, then yes, I'd say it's time to leave. I
know your head hurts by it, but the fact is that the general works for
the Commander-in-Chief.


Yep, there is only room for one big mouth in Obama's government.

Some 20 years ago I had a boss like Obama. Always shooting his mouth off
from day one. Clearly showing pretty quickly he didn't know much. About
2-3 weeks in he called me, the senior person of the crew and told me to
"Do as I tell you, not as you think.". I just got up, on the way out I
said I would be gone in a month.

I picked up the phone and I transfered out in 14 days. On the second week
he tried to talk me into staying, saying who is going to keep this going.
I just said, not my problem any more.

He ws fired in 4 months. He tried the same BS on the only other one that
knew jack crap about how things really worked and he too said enough was
enough.

The plant closed 8 months later.

The moral, if you **** off someone below you, make sure you can afford to
loose them or have them as enemies.

Moral of the story... you lost your job. I know you're bitter about it.
