DIA to reform 'revolving' door for employees

The Defense Intelligence Agency wants the "revolving door" between government and industry to swing both ways, making it easier for employees to return to the agency after they've left. DIA Deputy Director David Shedd said a new entry-exit program is just getting off the ground to meet the changing needs of its newer — and younger — workforce. This story is part of Federal News Radio's ongoing coverage of the 10th anniversary of the Sept. 11 attacks, "9/11: A Government Changed."

    DIA "revolving door"
    Norman's Mother
    Shedd, you just don't get it. If you want to retain your civilian analysts eliminate military supervisors/division/office chiefs. Why don't you investigate as to how these military types ignore civilian personnel policies and disregard the rights of civilian employees? Just five years ago you had an 0-6 try to fire a female civilian analyst who was two years shy of retirement. Guess what? The Powers That Be told Mr. Egomaniac 0-6 that he did not properly document so he had to suck it up. She stayed and eventually retired. DIA is not a female-friendly agency; in fact, most of the female analysts would be better off working for Wal-Mart. Finally, the fact that you're a male speaks volumes. I've never heard of you, so you must be a recent hire. GG-7 to SES overnight? How old are you anyway?
