I had a retired air force colonel who worked for me for years. He was the least productive member of the team by a considerable margin.
No kidding. The defense outfit I work for is notorious for hiring retired Colonels. These guys think they’re going to bring in all this business. Unfortunately, all their buddies have also retired, and the Major they kept as their coffee bitch all those years is now in charge and hates them.
Only met two that were worth a damn, and both because of their technical abilities.
