Management By Crisis

An apt description of what we're going through:

• The panic button's been pushed again!
  
  The fax came out this afternoon, cancelling all elective time off, for the 2d and 3d watches, on Saturday 14 August, even if it was previously approved, for ALL Bureaus.
  
  I'm sure your readers will remember, this is the day those "in control" scheduled the Air & Water Show AND the Bud Billiken Parade!
  
  They must be in full panic mode. They must have seen that the manpower is so low, they're going to have a hard time pulling this shit off.
  
  Another case of management by crisis.

Management by Morons might be another appropriate description. We can't wait to see what the brain trust comes up with here.
