work

I do not respect or appreciate How you treated me this morning. that leadership is not effective and it has not been affective.   Being screamed at undermined belittled and berated unjustifiably in front of my team is unacceptable.  
 But thank you for NOT giving me the opportunity to give feedback and perspective.   Instead I got the perspective and reassurance that I do not respect your leadership.   

Since I didn't get the chance to say 3 words, here is what I wanted to discuss.   The way you acted in front of my team and the entire flight line is unacceptable.   You failed to display proper radio etiquette and professionalism.  You failed to respect your subordinates and fellow SnCOs.  What you were effective in doing was display an unacceptable form of leadership.   You belittled you Airmen. You micromanaged your production team and undermined your flight chiefs.  And because i was on the flightline (despite you claiming that I'm not), I got to hear multiple ranks, shops and shifts proclaim.... "well thats how chief does things."  Because everyone is so used to your beratement it has become accepted.  
This morning you screamed at me full well knowing that my team could hear your every word.  I can only guess that was to show your dominance and 'make a show'...fire for effect.  You did not allow me the opportunity to respond or give any perspective which is fine.  However, you were wrong and unjustified.  
1. You claimed I haven't been out there and that I need to go out to the flightline and 'fix' it. I Am doing my job, I have been out there.  If you have any specific or pinpointed areas of feedback please, let's discuss.  
2.  You claimed you were lied to.  I am not sure what you are referring to and once again wasn't afforded the opportunity to ask. 
3.  Honestly everything else you said was not 'heard'.  I don't respond to getting screamed at unjustifiably so I was too angry to listen any more.  Once again, I assume most of the rest was to make a point and be 'heard' by my team on the other side of the door rather any sort of effective and actionable feedback.

NICU Day 1

Arriving at the hospital   So, Landon Matthew Anderson decided he wanted to come early... six weeks early! My water broke at about 3:30 a.m. even though I am only 33 weeks and 4 days. Bryan was at work for midshaft so I called him right away and called my mom to come watch the boys. Hayden just happened to be sleeping with me but thankfully did not wake up.  When Bryan arrived home, we left and got to the hospital at about 4:08 a.m. The nurses thought I had just had an "accident", it wasn't until they made me get up from the wheelchair (covered in water) that they realized my water actually had broken like I told them. My contractions were about 3 minutes apart already and I was dilated to about 3.5 inches. The nurse was terrible and finally called Dr. Alumbaugh after 3 other nurses and I told her to. When Dr. A got there, she wanted to transport me to Kansas City but had to slow down the contractions first. They started me on magnesium and although the cont...

Uncertainty and Connection

I haven't written since Landon was in the NICU but feel an urge to get my thoughts down.  A week ago, at work, we began preparation for the Corona-virus COVID-19.  As maintainers, most of my coworkers and I joked around about it however I stressed the importance of staying healthy for those with lowered immune systems, including premature babies.  While we don't know the outcome of this situation yet, I hope and pray that people take the precautions necessary to stay healthy and social distance from others.  The boys are in Texas this week and I cannot express the anxiety I feel at not being with them and the possibility of them, especially Landon being exposed.  I have several family members that are also susceptible due to on-going medical issues and worry that this terrible pandemic will effect them. In an attempt to due some good, I  tried to donate candy, treats and word books to the local veterans hospital.  However, they had already taken step...
