My man Frank hasn't been there long enough to learn the difference between a PIC and a BIC and the agency structure is still the wild west. Give me a break.
Frank is a liar. Plain and simple. A good journalist would have asked him how he got 800# call wait times down supposedly from 30 minutes to 5 minutes and what the consequence was of reassigning 1,000+ CSRs to answer 800# calls and in turn ignoring their other regular duties. How has that other work at SSA been affected etc? (AKA the actual work is not getting done since claims reps are too busy answering field office phones and manning the lobby windows across the country). Also, Frank, where are those bonuses you said would be coming for everyone's hard work? SMH
Never had any desire to watch what I call 19th Century Fox News. And since Frankenstein chose to show up on that channel only gives me another reason to ignore it.
I think I see a pattern. Agency heads must only report favorable info and bury anything making administration policies look bad. Maybe that was why that poor lady at the Bureau of Labor Statistics got fired, and certain stats are no longer reported by SSA?
Did you notice that the corporate media like WSJ and Barron’s treated the story like nothing to see here. I guess we are now in the WWE world where the results are predetermined.
I’ve called the N8NN on 6 different occasions this month to verify the current wait time. Each time it was over 100 minutes. During one call they removed the wait time notification all together.
All the 800 number, further threats of layoffs and improving the disability process is a distraction as they move the Trust Fund to Wall Street. Watch as the move the disability program to STD/LTD insurers to manage. Another reason that all executives are political now to keep everything close hold.
This administration is on the road to whitewash the truth. This experiment called Democracy is at a tipping point.
An old rule in Washington holds that you are entitled to your own opinions but you are not entitled to your own facts. President Trump seems determined to prove that wrong.
Don’t like an intelligence report that contradicts your view? Go after the analysts. Don’t like cost estimates for your tax plan? Invent your own. Don’t like a predecessor’s climate policies? Scrub government websites of underlying data. Don’t like a museum exhibit that cites your impeachments? Delete any mention of them.
The implementation of AWS for phone service was done by his predecessor Martin O’Mally, not by Big F himself. Great job taking credit for other’s work!
This is a scandal actually. O’Malley eliminated the workforce management system on the 800 Number against the objections of career staff. https://www.ssa.gov/agency/commissioner/assets/materials/coss-letter-to-senator-warren.pdf
Frankie’s mission is to privatize SSA eventually and that would explain the victory lap.
ReplyDeleteThe victory lap will take place at Central Park NY and many Wall Street executives will be in attendance.

ReplyDeleteToo bad the data backing up his claim is removed from SSA's website.
ReplyDeleteI'd never watch FOX anything, and I don't wanna hear his lies and BS. NO thank you. Real facts ONLY....not any of this wool over our eyes.

ReplyDeleteFox News is a MAGA wing propaganda machine. Difficult questions are not encouraged.

ReplyDeleteThe comments on that video are depressing

ReplyDeleteFrank is hiring his buddies and not announcing anything. The privatization has begun.
ReplyDeleteAnd that is how you get the stats you want!

ReplyDeleteTop NRA exec is now on board. Now that’s scary.

Makes you think if Frank is willing to cook
ReplyDeletethe numbers to look good, did he do the same at Fiserv, FirstData, and JP Morgan.
