Give 'em both credit for making the trip here. I didn't see anyone else from the panhandle.

Frank represented the district. 1200 mile round trip.

That’s cause he’s a yes man politician and he would have driven triple that just to be seen by the chief and director. Same for tampa captain. You know he was all about getting more face time with those two.

Nah, I know both of them pretty well. I'll go out on a limb here and say both went because it was the right thing to do. It showed respect, loyalty, and dedication. Traits that some of you lost long ago. It's amazing, you people cry when we don't promote internally, but here we have two guys come up through the ranks and do well for themselves. Yet here you are again, trashing them because you don't have the courage or drive to challenge yourself to do better. Maybe you are one of those that needs to hurt others to make yourself feel better about your depressing life? No telling. My only advice to you is to do better and be the catalyst this agency needs.

The longer Weaselnuts is here the more toxic the work environment seems to get.

It's got nothing to do with the director. When you people trash each other like you do it proves a point that we never hired the right people in the first place. The toxicity was here long before the director even arrived as licensing chief.

The most accurate statement yet.
We didn't hire the right people.
This is a regulatory agency with a very small and limited law enforcement function.
This is a job that tacti-cool narcs and self-centered beat cops don't adapt well to.
We finally get a management team that understands what we were tasked to do and hold us to it and the malcontents won't adapt. It is time for them to move on and leave the beverage law to those of us that want to be here.
