"The "Can Do attitude"

Not sure who I have quoted from here but I can't let it pass without making an observation. That "Can Do" you refer to is "Must Do because I was ordered to". Blue suiters are trained to say "Yes Sir" every time. That's why they make perfect ALM candidates for this mob of c@#*s that we now find ourselves working for.

Until they realise they are now civilians with all the rights of civilians (ie use your own fkn brains for a change) they will always be different to the rest of us. We civilians also have a "can do" attitude, when there is a clear and present need for some form of change. But we don't have an automatic "yes sir" response. Frequently, it is a "you've got to be kidding" response because the proposals are so stupid.



Rant mode off.
