"I know better, but I wish the USG and DoD would pay close attention to this particular paradigm--when you lower your employment standards to increase manpower, and still expect the competence and performance provided by actual professionals, you will inevitably be very disappointed in the outcome."
Well said Razor! I recently have had a great deal of contact with BW where I'm working. Pretty disappointed in their leadership at my level. Still there are some good quality people working for them, however they seem to be outweighted by the large number of flat-out knuckleheads. To quote on of the BW staff whom I work with,"Bro we are swimming in a sea of stupidity".
Many of the BW staff I have talked to are in a bit of a state of denial believing the USG and Dept of State will not allow Iraq to throw them out. However Iraq is a soveriegn country and I doubt anybody in the USG will place BW's interests over winning the war. There have been several incidents caused by BW staff which have been swept under the rug in the past. Besides the "wild, west days" in Iraq are over. If a company is going to do business in Iraq they had better expect the Iraqi govt to assert its authority.
For the WPPS contracts I would expect TC and Dyncorp will be jumping all over that. Ageis won't get it because they are a non-US firm IMHO.
