Just saw this.
Carolyn Zerkle is a rather infamous character on the blog site and was subject of endless comments over the years. There are so many good stories about her. In any case she seemed to be a LANS person through and through and through. There seemed to only be bad stories about her on the blog. Since the blog might be filter for only certain views, I am sure there must be plenty of people who will point out good things.
I'm glad she is leaving LANL and becoming your problem now. But I'm surprised LLNL selected a career project manager, non-PhD, bureaucrat type as deputy director. Is that typical, or just another sign of how the labs have become jobs programs where the goal is to spend increasing sums on paper pushers, accountants, regulatory compliance and countless other non-core roles?
My dealings with Zerkle at LANL were always cordial, but she obviously had a very high opinion of herself.
"other non-core roles"
The unspoken question really is, what best juices the LLNS annual award fee, those with the talent to best meet our NNSA milestones, or those that are best at massaging these milestones to the NNSA Field Office for maximum profit? This is where we are. Sorry.
