Posted by R30A on Fri Jun 24 12:38:10 2016, in response to Re: Dictatorship not Democracy, posted by BrooklynBus on Fri Jun 24 11:24:51 2016. "Okay let's analyze your post."Ok! "You previously stated that you are consistent and do not change your mind and do not make assumptions." I have made the first of those three claims. I pride myself on not making the second of the claims that you state I make. I also do not make the third claim. 1 for 3. "You also stated that you are incredibly jealous because I accomplished nothing during my 25 years at the MTA and received a great salary and pension. The only people who would be jealous are those with a poor salary and pension. THERE WAS ABSOLUTELY NOTHING IN YOU STATEMENT TO INDICATE SARCASM." Just because you are incapable of understanding other people does not change their intent. "So when I called you out on it and PROVED how a $2.3 million investment by the MTA netting them $42 million, your response was that I did not account for inflation and they obviously did not get their money's worth. SO HOW DO YOU CONCLUDE THAT?" That is an improper summary of my claim. I was certainly right about the inflation. That said, the bigger error of your claim is that you clearly did not net the MTA $42 million, even if one were to take you at your word, which is obviously an incredibly foolish thing to do. "Well inflation works both ways. The $4 million I saved was in 1993. So how much would you say that was worth today in 2016 as I am continuing to get my pension? Then you state if I didn't catch the error, someone else would have caught it. ANOTHER ASSUMPTION ON YOUR PART FOR SOMEONE WHO NEVER MAKES ASSUMPTIONS." Yes, I assume that people do their job. I identify that such is an assumption. I never said I do not make assumptions. Unlike you, I do not assert my assumptions as fact. "The fact is that the time to catch the error was between the time when the contract was written in the late 80's and before the contractor was paid in 1992. I discovered the error on contract closeout about six months after the contractor was paid, long after Capital Accounting approved the payment. IT WAS THEIR JOB TO CATCH THE ERROR NOT MINE, and they failed to do that." That is what you claim. Considering your track record, It is unlikely. "Then you have the gall to suggest that my job was to save the MTA $4 million for every day I worked there. So I guess according to you it was all MY FAULT that the Second Avenue subway was not built because I wasn't doing my job of saving the MTA $4 million everyday because the MTA would have had $25 billion more in their budget if I were doing my job correctly. LOL." I never made any claim that you have responsibility for the second avenue subway. However considering the number of delays it has seen, I would be unsurprised. "You don't think I deserved a bonus or promotion for doing something beyond my job description and saving $4 million. Most promotions are based on who you know, not what you did. That is only one of the things wrong with the MTA." Yes, your endless vendetta against your former employer is clear. "And of course you diminish my accomplishment for helping to recoup $30 million by saying I was only doing my job and the fact that 100 others were involved. I guess you never heard of team work. The entire team deserves credit. But I did the most work not the 100 others, so you are WRONG once again. They each worked about a month, while I spent three years on that project exclusively," And if you didn't, someone else would have. That is called doing your job. And if turnover of others was so fast that 100 people ended up doing less than one person did, I would highly suspect that there was a problem with the one person being incredibly difficult to work with. "Then you have the nerve to assume that a "competent" person would have saved more in less time. AGAIN YOU ARE MAKING FALSE ASSUMPTIONS BASED ON ZERO FACTS. But you NEVER make assumptions, and you NEVER need facts. WHAT A JOKE YOU ARE!!!!!'" It is an assumption. I identified it as an assumption. I have never stated that I never make assumptions. You have made the claim that I don't, which is yet another example of you making false claims. "Then you can't understand a simple sentence which I shouldn't have to explain. I made major changes to ten bus routes working from an outside agency. Those changes should have taken two years to accomplish. Instead it took four years due to constant roadblocks thrown at us by the MTA, so it took four years, twice as long as it should have taken." Considering your track record, they should throw up road blocks. "By contrast, ONE MINOR bus route change WHICH I SUGGESTED, took the MTA FIVE YEARS to study and implement and they implemented that change internally, only having to deal with DOT. (We at City Planning had to deal with both DOT and the MTA.)" Good! They should take their time evaluating your ideas. "Do you understand that simple concept now that I have taken the time to break it down for you into bite size pieces?" You are still not making a point. Just endless rambling. "You also made the assumption that all my ideas fall between terrible and impossible WITHOUT ANY PROOF when you have no idea WHAT ALL MY SUGGESTIONS WERE. Again, that is a statement from someone who supposedly never makes assumptions." Just working with the ideas that you have put forwards here. If you universally propose ideas which range from impossible to manslaughter, I and others will continue to not take your ideas particularly seriously. "You keep changing your position, constantly make false assumptions, diminish other people's accomplishments because of your own jealousy, make assertions with zero proof, make incorrect statements, and then lie about all that." I do not frequently change my position. My assumptions are only false in your delusional eyes. I only diminish your "accomplishments" because they are absurd, and I never lie. "And Terrapin is the only one supporting you, Most everyone else here will agree with me regarding this post." Actually, plenty of people here and elsewhere agree with me. You have very little support here. Largely because most people seem to see you for the fraud that you are. |
