Yes, really, think about what you are saying, being a firefighter and being an effective manager are two completely different skill sets. Does Donald Trump have experience in leading an army? Did Steve Jobs have experience running a corporation? Yes, he is a political appointee, by Mayor Wuerch! Because of his experience he was asked to be city manger by Begich. Please enlighten me what department head is not a political appointee by any mayor. In fact are we not seeing this at the Cabinet level by President Trump?I could name plenty of people who have bounced from job to job who were very effective, ever hear of General Patreaus? So long? Less than two years on the job? Please stop your embarrassing yourself.
