Nigga please..they are doing the same old sh!t that city/counties do...act like the world is coming to an end - complain about losing vital services...when all they have to do is cut down on some “non-value-added” beaurocrats.
It’s a standard approach...pretend that you have to cut essential services - when what you really need to do id cut out some fat.
Being an active duty F-15 Crew Chief I kind of like this idea. Cutting flying hours by 20% could mean more time to actually fix these worn out, 25 year old pieces of junk. No Fly Fridays, sweet. That’s 18,000-24,000 gallons of fuel saved, countless man hours in mx saved, don’t forget. One less day of a Major telling me the landing gear “felt” like they were slow to retract, not sure though.
It’s the old “football team” ploy.
When schools are faced with real budget cuts, the first thing they threaten is the football team. Threaten the most popular item and people will get in line for the next tax increase.
Heaven forbid they would actually cut waste and abuse! WHAZZAT??
