I met Frank Braski, manager of Aflac’s high performance workplace initiatives at the BEA Participate conference and he gives me a rundown on what Aflac (one of the world’s largest insurance companies) is trying to do with its IT initiatives.

I hear he’s glad he did! He got a multi-year 7 figure gig where he’ll be appreciated and no longer a threat to maniacal micromanaging megalomaniacs like you!
You know everytime someone gets fired from Aflac. You say the same Sh&$! “Violated Aflac Policy.” But you never say which “policy” that was. Frank seemed to be a very smart person who knew his stuff. They fired him because of the same reason they fire most people at Aflac. Simply because they could. What Aflac Management fails to realize is that that people have education and experience waaaay beyond Aflac, so ahhh they can get another job. So the only people that are hurt in the long run is Aflac, because now you have to replace a position that was extremely difficult to fill, especially with the salary they will offer.

I resent the term maniacal. I am quite sane.

I can understand why he was fired. He used “we” too often. When Sheilds speaks he prefers “I”.
