Snoppy. Please recognize that the critics have an agenda. They attempting to wear you down the same way they wore Frank and Doug ( LANL: The Rest of the Story) down. Their agenda is simple, shut the LLNS blog down, it's airing LANS/LLNS dirty, stinky, and corrupt laundry. Hang in there, we appreciate your efforts!

Things have improved remarkably at Los Alamos since the awful LANL blog shut down.

Employee morale has gained and staff are pitching in with their hard working LANS upper management to make LANL the best ever!

Worker efficiency is rising and productivity is improving with each passing day. The trend is ever upward to perfection with LANS! Hundreds of employees are posting insightful comments on the new LANL Performance Blog. Come join the LANS team!

Things will only get better at LLNS once this blog, too, is shut down. Think about it.

5/2 11:04 am was a regular on the LANL blog in the weeks before it was shut down. Unfortunately, his tongue-in-cheek parody of LANS management wasn't appreciated by many, and his postings drew an ever increasing amount of vitriol, which of course was, and is, his aim. Hopefully the LLNL folks aren't as irony-challenged and will just ignore his juvenile attempts at inciting argument for argument's sake.

Plutonium Shots on NIF.

By scooby
Tri-Valley Cares needs to be on this if they aren't already. We need to make sure that NNSA and LLNL does not make good on promises to pursue such stupid ideas as doing Plutonium experiments on NIF. The stupidity arises from the fact that a huge population is placed at risk in the short and long term. Why do this kind of experiment in a heavily populated area? Only a moron would push that kind of imbecile area. Do it somewhere else in the god forsaken hills of Los Alamos. Why should the communities in the Bay Area be subjected to such increased risk just because the lab's NIF has failed twice and is trying the Hail Mary pass of doing an SNM experiment just to justify their existence? Those Laser EoS techniques and the people analyzing the raw data are all just BAD anyways. You know what comes next after they do the experiment. They'll figure out that they need larger samples. More risk for the local population. Stop this imbecilic pursuit. They wan...

Trump is to gut the labs.

By scooby
The budget has a 20% decrease to DOE office of science, 20% cut to NIH. NASA also gets a cut. This will  have a huge negative effect on the lab. Crazy, juts crazy. He also wants to cut NEA and PBS, this may not seem like  a big deal but they get very little money and do great things.

Why Workplace Jargon Is A Big Problem

By scooby
From the Huffington Post Why Workplace Jargon Is A Big Problem http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2014/04/25/work-words_n_5159868.html?utm_hp_ref=business&ir=Business When we replace a specific task with a vague expression, we grant the task more magnitude than it deserves. If we don't describe an activity plainly, it seems less like an easily achievable goal and more like a cloudy state of existence that fills unknowable amounts of time. A fog of fast and empty language has seeped into the workplace. I say it's time we air it out, making room for simple, concrete words, and, therefore, more deliberate actions. By striking the following 26 words from your speech, I think you'll find that you're not quite as overwhelmed as you thought you were. Count the number that LLNLs mangers use.  touch base circle back bandwidth - impactful - utilize - table the discussion deep dive - engagement - viral value-add - one-sheet deliverable - work product - incentivise - take it to the ...
