ReplyDeleteDead grass doesn't grow.
ReplyDeleteSo now that Huckster Hollway is startign his second term, what is his big plan to help the membership? Has anyone heard from the guy? Does he even show up for work? Does he have to?
Hey look at the NAGE web site, if your lucky you might see 10 stories or articles in a year.
ReplyDeleteIf you are a non Dept. of Defense federal employee maybee one story applies to you. Most are already written and ripped off from another source.
Yes and your dues are paying hundreds of thousands of dollars for a few insiders who "maintain" the website and publish the NAGE newspaper which comes out maybe twice a year and has only stories of Holway's handpicked luninaries, of stooges...makes me want to puke....and they want MORE dues.
NAGE is TOAST, get out now if you can.
