She doesn't have to manage people. Being the head of the CDC is really more about having sufficient knowledge and understanding of what all goes on here to be able to communicate effectively with the public and the government (read: obtaining funds). She also has a big role in guiding the direction of the center as a whole to better serve the public.
It is indeed....especially considering most of the people you'll talk to are CDC employees volunteering their time.
I was on for a second or two. You must have missed the guy in the loincloth that ran in front of the camera and was immediately tackled and dragged away. That was me.Why didn't you get any airtime?? I guess with SARS noone cares about STD's anymore?

I think you're wrong; isn't that the demographic that Survivor was based on?

The volunteers are trained specifically for whatever kind of calls they'll be fielding (ie- SARS in this case). They can handle 90% of the questions they'll get and the other 10% will get referred to someone with specific knowledge of the subject.Originally posted by: Electric Amish

LOL! I didn't watch the whole thing... DAMN!!!
I only mentioned the part about managing people because they specifcally mentioned that fact during the interview...
I'm surprised they allow volunteers to take calls. The volunteers must be very well screened to keep out the nutballs that would say, "You have what??!! Dude! You're going to DIE!!" :\

Sadly, yes. I got kinda fat over the last year or so by not riding as much as I used to but continuing to eat everything not nailed down. I've gotten back on the horse this year and am dropping it pretty quickly. I should be back to normal (about 180) in another month or so.
