I just came across this old posting from Feburary, 2003. In it, Beatriz Marinello says that she resigned as USCF Scholastic Director in protest of the decision to settle the suit by the USCF against Richard Peterson.
At that time, I was defending Beatriz from attacks by Peterson. Perhaps it is time to take another look at this situation.

I thought it was a "leopard changing his spots", not a rat jumping to another ship.
Perhaps it's time you took a look at what you did in Nevada.
While I agree with Richard Peterson completely about the likely forger, he had proof. You never have. You just make it up as you ooze along.

I thought that you were on the side of Beatriz. So, who do you think it was?
Did Beatriz forge the signature of Richard Peterson or did Eric Johnson forge the signature of Richard Peterson or did Richard Peterson forge his own signature?
That seems to take care of all the reasonable possibilities.
The move to Crossville on the other hand, is an EXCELLENT idea that will prove meritorious over the years.

One factor which has not been consideed is that part of the plan is for current employees to fly down to Crossville to teach the newcomers their jobs.
However, this is unrealistic. What employee is going to be willing to train their own replacement?
A more realistic idea wiould be to pay the new people in Crossville to fly up to New Windsor to have the established employees train them.
At least the new empolyees would have an incentive to spend a few weeks away from their families.
But would people be found in Crossville willing to do this, and how much would this cost?
It is my understanding that most of the job protocols have already been standardized onto disks and placed in manuels. Having been a trainer and a manager in a past life, most semi-complex jobs can be taught in two weeks with propersupport material. Six months is the average to become proficient and one year for mastery. Training an hiring while important is an immaterial point in reality, but a vaild concern.
You can hire adequate staff for between 18,000 to 22,000 per year each. There will be no need for anyone other than Judy to be there. take care, Rob Sam Sloan wrote:> On 16 Dec 2004 10:32:05 -0800, "Rob" <robmtchl@msn.com> wrote:>

Sam, This is the information provided in a quote snipped from Petral: "Well, how well organized are things in New Windsor, and how portable are the operations? They are more portable, TO THE EXTENT that they are like this:
- computer software is reliable and operates pretty much without human fixups: you put in a tournament disk, for example, and it updates the ratings without glitches
- desk manuals, training materials, and orientation materials exist for all positions
- financial procedures are routinized and don't depend on anyone's special knowledge or experience
- there is lots of documentation, in the form of computerized records, easily searchable: if anyone wants to know why something is done, or what the association's past experiences with someone are, or the history of anything, it can all be found out very quickly
In other words, all the current USCF staff have put all their knowledge and habits and experience into files which can then be accessed by the new staff in Crossville, so that people without any experience with a chess federation can access the previous staff's experience and operate the USCF without
crippling downtime. That is, the USCF is MORE than just a smoothly operating office - it is a smoothly operating office which has documented all its procedures and activities to an amazingly high extent""
Petral works in a not for profit and has knowledge of the internal systemation. I am just taking his word for it. I have no reason to belive he is anything but honest and accurate.
"This is the information provided in a quote snipped from Petral: 'Well, how well organized are things in New Windsor, and how portable are the operations? They are more portable, TO THE EXTENT that they are like this:
- computer software is reliable and operates pretty much without human fixups: you put in a tournament disk, for example, and it updates the ratings without glitches [etc. etc. etc. etc.]'
Rob, please focus for a moment on the words "TO THE EXTENT" which are CAPITALIZED FOR EMPHASIS. They mean that the USCF's operations are portable IF they are like the kind of operations which I then describe. IF they are. TO THE EXTENT that they are. But if the New Windsor operations are NOT like that, then there can be great problems. I am not testifying that they are like that. I have no first-hand knowledge on this point. In fact, if you go on to read the paragraph IMMEDIATELY FOLLOWING the section that you quoted, you will see that I really suspect they are NOT like that.
I guess I apologize for not making my skepticism clear enough. petrel

You completely misread what Petral wrote. He wrote that a move would be feasible if these things exist.
However, I just spoke to someone familiar with the New Windsor office and he conformed that none of these things exist.
So now you've admitted the inevitability of the move and are offering your advice how to best accomplish it?
Breathtaking.

Now that you have been informed that none of the documentation which Petrel feels is required for a move exists, what do you think about the feasibility of the move?
Do you think it is realistic to expect the present staff to spend their last few days on the job to create the documentation to enable their replacements to slip easily into their jobs?
