When the people under me make mistakes, my boss holds me responsible. Therefore I have to really be serious about whom I hire and how I train them, as it falls on me if i don’t. It seems to me our politicians aren’t held accountable or to high standards like i’m held to. And i’m in retail management. Perhaps this could explain how easy it was for enemies to hijack our planes and how, to this day, no politician has taken responsiblity for the many mistakes and incompetent individuals who might be partially or wholly to blame.
