The Thing About Crisis Management, You Actually Don't Want a Non-Crisis Situation

 Over and over....from the early part of February, the Biden-team has said there is no crisis at the southern border.  

In the last couple of days....Biden chief coordinator for the southern border, Roberta Jacobson, gave intent to resign at the end of April.

So you look at this and the only way to publicly say it.....there simply wasn't any crisis at the border for Jacobson to handle, and she got fairly bored with a non-crisis crisis-related job.  

You know the feeling....you get promoted up into a job at the company, and lectured over and over by the boss....we have these crisis issues existing.  So you get the big office area and are consumed with passion to handle crisis event.  

You get to the office on day one, and realize.....there is NO crisis.  Everyone around you....says the same thing....NO CRISIS. 

So about a month into the job.....you've come to realize that this is not really a job for you....being a crisis-director in a NON-CRISIS situation.  In fact, the longer you stay....the more damage you are doing to your four-star resume.....as a crisis-manager.  I wish this Jacobson gal luck.  

Who gets the crisis-director job next?  Unknown.
