We were like a fine Swiss Watch but this Captain has his own ideas. He believes that the only way to manage is by intimidation and fear.Nomaster:Gary,
I'm sorry, I'd imagined you in a pretty good situation there; then comes the reality bites. I hope you find a way to rectify the situation before your team, or anyone on your team (which is of course the same thing) is damaged.

He will flat out tell you that HE will make the decisions ON the spot. They may not be the right ones but they will be his and he will stick to them.
The LT he brought over with him from the jail will do anything the Capt. Wants but cant make a decision on his own. What I have been using to describe that team is that if the Capt. Sneezes the Lt. is there with a Kleenex. The Sgt. will be right there with a fresh box should it be needed.
Its a remake of the A-Team called the A-Hole Team.
The call outs are going to or have already changed. Call comes in, goes to the Capt. Then to the Lt. and Sgt.. IF, they all approve it we can roll under their supervision. Under this system the public can Kiss Rescues Goodbye. Looks like whoever remains will be a recovery team.
Gurrrrrrrrr
