In talking with the crews at the original station, it appears that Chief Dean may have moved his trolley off of the proverbial tracks. The driver inadvertently experienced a very minor accident when his rig struck part of the apparatus bay opening. Notwithstanding any potential paperwork boffos, the Chief has seen fit to dip these two veteran members' dicks in the dirt! Clearly, his goal is to teach them both a lesson (what kind? Who knows!), and diminish their self esteem.
What's interesting is that our Fire Chief bypassed the BC level, the DC level, and officially, the Assistant Chief of Operations level. He struck his blows based upon his own misplaced sense of power and retribution. If he was presenting his behavior (i.e., personnel issue) in front of any basic promotional oral board (for any level of officer), he'd likely receive a resounding ZERO! He may want to retrieve some references from his own station libraries, and from his own POG and bone up on appropriate and professional decision making. Right now he looks like a bush-leaguer, with this example of perverted injustice.
