Air Force nixes evaluations for junior airmen

How are they going to know if they are doing well

why doesn't the Air Force just stick with a process that isn't broken. the article states ...“Essentially, they go in a file and we don’t ever use them again,” Wright said at the time. “They’re not up for promotion, they can’t be used for senior airman below-the-zone consideration, they really can’t be used for any specific purpose. And so the question becomes, why write them?”... why? because it gives the supervisors time to document what their subordinates are doing and practice writing GOOD EPR's. further, I really don't see EVERY supervisor implementing the 180 day feedback sessions for every Airman...there's is going to be a lot of pencil whipped paperwork!

I entirely understand. Certainly, I merely thought you'd all want to see thst, it's a novel approach, howrver, clearly, such changes cause considerable worry quite often, believe me, I know, the commissioned side has had similar variations I can assure you, that happened when I wsd in, sovad for if it sin',t broke , don't fix it, I entirely agree with you, by all means, however, obviously it's rather like trying to argue with the Almighty, when thunderbolts like that get thrown down, contesting stuff, you know? like thst is effectively impossible, you know?
