I love the part:
"Not only are we working every day to improve our aging infrastructure, but as a
large percentage of our work force is approaching retirement NNSA needs to be
nimble and creative to make sure we're getting America's brightest to join our
ranks as new employees."
I never thought of NNSA and Nimble being used in the same paragraph, let alone
the same sentence. Now NNSA and nincompoop, those are two words I can associate
in the same sentence.
All I can say is god bless you Mr. D'Agostino. You're going to need some help
from above to attract America's brightest. Average benefits, inane rules that
add no real benefit, urine testing, polygraphing and an administration that is
not really supportive of the mission. Yup, I see the best and brightest beating
a path to the DOE weapons complex.

God help us!
And D'Agostino had better hope the economy is in the tank for a while. If the complex is hiring in a down economy, they might have a chance to recruit. But if it heats up and the cheapskates have to compete with the real world, they aren't going to get the best and brightest.
Before taking the job, be sure to check out the blogs.

Kudos to you...I have NOT really had much to smile about over the past 15+ months, however I AM LMAO!!! You hit this individuals 'funny bone' with your accurate and oh so descriptive quip lol....THANK YOU!!!
Folks, I sadly hear so much anger and bitterness, such whining and crying here EVERY time I visit...and the majority of blogger's ARE still 'gainfully' employed!!
Whether or not you like your 'new boss's, you ARE still able to pay their mortgage, you CAN pay your bills, the luxury of even being able to go out for breakfast, lunch or even dinner, get a haircut, buy groceries...go to a movie, pay for you son or daughters college!
YOU have the 'privilege' of going to work everyday.
YES, transition IS hard, change is painful, UNEMPLOYEMNT IS WORSE!!!
Count your blessings you STILL have a job, some form of retirement still accruing, able to have medical, dental and vision plans....15 months later I am STILL looking....to date I have lost my home, lost my retirement, I have NO medical, dental or vision, my good credit gone.
On unemployment, at the 'max' pay, I have to have a 'room mate' just to pay rent for a 'room' to lay my head at night just to worry about what tomorrow will bring.
I don't qualify for State programs for food or medical because as a single person my 'income' is too high, yet I don't have a dime to spare to buy a healthcare plan.
The current job market is sad. I am single and almost 50.....
You are so narrow minded...whining and crying 'poor me'...try walking in someone else's shoes for a while....you should be darn glad to have what you still do!!!
I would encourage you to re-think your attitude and remember YOU ARE still the backbone of LLNS....not the new managers!
P.S. I WOULD trade your life for mine any day and be darn GLAD!!!
Thanks a lot, NNSA. This really stinks!
