    Yeah, that’s not how the military works at all. Maybe in business management, but not military. People seem to forget Starfleet is just that. The commander has a philosophy (that they will often draft a letter about when they assume command) and the unit adapts to it. People used to that are a little more understanding of Jellico and recognize that dread the enterprise crew had when they realized how good they had it under Picard.

      People acting like Picard ran a tight ship are just deluding themselves. If Picard ran his ship half as well as, say, a modern air craft carrier then there would be no show. It’d be boring.

        I really wish to see more accurate depictions of military life. Strangely competent in some areas but at the same time mundane incompetence everywhere.

        It would probably be boring though.

              It’s basically a workplace comedy, and one of the focuses of the show is how bad Starfleet is about making sure their strange new worlds are getting on okay a couple decades after first contact. The crew of the Cerritos are simultaneously Starfleet’s best, and an absolute embarrassment lol

              It’s a fantastic show, that really gets the soul of Star Trek. You should check it out
