@BrentASJax I think that for all the "pitching instructors" (not team coaches) it is far easier to help a youngster develop more velocity than it is to teach the how to pitch.
Teaching "pitching" is far more individual and requires discipline of thought and awareness that velocity does not.
I served in the PA Bureau at State under W. PA was the dumping ground of every employee who refused to work but could not be fired.
There some great & knowledgeable & dedicated career staff with 80% bloat. As a political appointee, you needed private insurance because if you fired someone the union could sue you personally, and State sided with the union.
One person spent all day calling information shows to win contests.
Many ran their EBay Store from their desk.
The average person swiped in at 7:58, walked to the cafeteria, and did not get to their desk until 10:30.
Fridays before Redskins or Ravens games half the employees would wear Jerseys and have theme lunches that last 3 hours.
I knew a 30 year old grandmother with 5 kids, no man in her life so did literally nothing but manage her household all day and was told we can’t fire her she has 5 kids and a grandkid and what will happen to them? It was a welfare program.
Many had accrued so much PTO that every Friday they called in sick.
At 3:45 they’d gather by the exits to meet friends. Stare at the big clock. And the second it hit 4:01pm, they’d swipe out. On their card they were there “before 8” stated until “after 4” and that was cause for step increase.
I met some of the most lazy, conniving, selfish individuals at State. Greedy. Entitled. Sabotaging.
If Congress objects ask them if a union manages their office staff, or if they do, and can they hire / fire / promote, or does some other entity get to decide for them.
I cannot applaud this enough except 1300 is short by 7,000. And every other agency needs to do the same. Government is not a welfare or jobs program.
The greatest DOGE ad you’ll ever see.
Jon Stewart finding out how the Biden Administration spent $42 Billion to expand broadband to more Americans, and connected ZERO (0) homes in 4 years.
Journalists:
"We had no idea Biden sold influence to China."
"We had no idea of Biden's mental health decline."
"We had no idea Hunter would get pardoned."
"We had no idea the laptop was real."
If only there was a group of people who did!
The FBI’s abuses under Mr. Comey were the worst since J. Edgar Hoover. As documented by the Justice Department inspector general and special counsel John Durham, officials lied to the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court to get a warrant against Trump campaign official Carter Page. They also lied about the disinformation in the Steele dossier, which was financed by the Hillary Clinton campaign. @WSJ
