Justifications for why programs do not move forward. Bu no one has offered that certain projects are complete and finished and based on current science a valid LONG-term solution is available and practical. NO SENIOR staff think that way. you must have a tera byte of excuses and justifications. As a manager who used to ask foolish questions regarding, "when is enough enough?" and 'what is the ROI for this effort." and "how will we know that we are done --failure or success!" I was consistently annoyed and sometimes shifted to other tasks when there questions obviously had merit. Yes, these questions made me an aggravation person trying to influence programs such as TRI and Challenge and flawed web sites such as chem view. being on the outside i have been finding alternative methods to seek good government, but surprise surprise, OSC, MSPB, and EEOC are overwhelmed and understaffed. Poor or intentional planning, not you problem. Elope you are doing well, determining who is lying to you or who is lying the most. Keep charging ahead. Make the work meaningful and not farcical.
