That's how he operates. Did the same thing at 187. Starts off in the background to find out who will become his little :mfight: and who are the :holysheep: He will then pal out with the :mfight: and pick on the :holysheep:
At 187 it turned out that he gathered the jerks into his flock.....(birds of a feather) and picked on the straight shooters. He is a power hungry moron that has no business being in control of a facility or it's people. His idea of control is divide and conquor, get the whole terminal at odds with each other, play one person against the other. He will change everything to suit his needs. His biggest attribute is he lies through his teeth. Watch him like a hawk!! Do not trust him. Keep the guys united and it will drive him crazy.
It has taken a while, but 187 is almost back to the way we were before he got here. There is more unity among the men, things Lamont took away from us, have been restored, and the guys seem to enjoy coming to work again. Bottom line is, the terminal is running smoothly again.
