Counseling for Performance Failure
Failure to Communicate/Dinq Quals/Performance (Negative):
PS1 XXXX is receiving a counsel chit to help with his duties as a Leading Petty Officer. Your qualifications have fallen into delinquent status. You cannot set a leading example to your Sailors if you can't pull your own weight. You're expected to lead as a First Class Petty Officer and I expect more from you. Until I see improvement you are now being relieved as the Personnel LPO for the following reasons:
1. Qualifications - You can't be an example to the junior Sailors when you are in delinquent status.
2. Communication - Failure to listen and put out information at quarters is UNSAT! If you can't deliver a message to your Sailors, how will they know to begin tasks?
3. Attitude - Negative attitude towards your superiors is unprofessional. RESPECT AND DIGNITY IS A MUST IN MY ADMIN SHOP!
4. Initiative - You're a Petty Officer First Class on your way to get ANCHORS. ACT LIKE IT! LEAD! TAKE CHARGE!
5. Follow up - Not answering emails is one thing, but ignoring or not taking action/following up on it is another. Take ownership of YOUR OFFICE!
Member and Counselor:
I am here to support you not babysit you. I DO NOT want to micromanage. If you feel overwhelmed or not up for the challenge I'll be glad to let someone step up for you.
Member was made aware that stating he has no desire to be here or learn could be construed as a refusal to train and could result in administrative and or disciplinary action because separation from family and friends is a part of life and not a reason to neglect his professional responsibilities and his own success. Service member was reminded to utilize all of the resources, that include open learning and asking questions during class hours, available to him.
