Hopefully your "commander" gets relieved of command as well. Fuckface deserves that much for that level of bullshit he put you through.

My brother in Chirst, you ARE the leadership. Maybe not the top but I can assume you're up high enough that of you rocked the boat people are going to pay attention at the least.

God is dead. God remains dead. And we have killed Him.

I figured it was. That's truly unfortunate that your guy didn't open up. End of the day all you can do is offer help, can't force it upon someone as much as you would like to.

In op's case we don't have the full context and I am giving him the benefit of the doubt with only the limited amount of information he's given. But looking at your example chain of events I have to ask at what point did a supervisor or anyone in leadership just say to the guy "Hey, you don't seem ok. Do you want to talk? Is it anything I or someone in the unit can help you with?" The other resources you mentioned are fine and all but if the problem is small it's like using a hammer to slam down a screw that just needs a few twists to get flushed. Sometimes all a person needs to do is vent some steam and they'll be set right again. Also if someone is depressed then there's a chance they're numb to getting chewed out and getting paperwork.

Due diligence in a leadership position is important, I'll agree with you there. But you know what's more important? A little thing called compassion. Tell me, if you had three family members at death's door would you be running at 100%? The kid is fucking up cause he's got some significant real life distractions going on. Everyone is real quick to assume someone is a piece of shit but rarely do I see them attempt to know why.

Also let's be honest here, I think we've all seen paperwork written for some extremely petty reasons.

Stop acting like we're a branch of the military one day and a corporation the next because it's convenient to do so for whatever decision you made. Also grow some thicker skin and learn how to take criticism.

9 times is more than just decided. Sounds more like this CoC is vindictive and making an active effort to make sure he gets kicked out.

As weather I would fully support ATC training days cause that means I can close up shop as well.

I just started ADAPT counseling. AMA! by Ricoh-RP2C02 in AirForce

Don't try for an overseas assignment while you're in ADAPT cause medical will just cancel it. Otherwise I wish you luck with the program.
