02:01.640 --> 02:03.860
If I can get Colonel Real to join us ,

02:04.740 --> 02:06.351
Uh , I just want to take the

02:06.351 --> 02:08.573
opportunity to introduce our new debt .

02:08.573 --> 02:10.684
One , uh , I am a Colonel . Bill Real

02:10.684 --> 02:13.018
comes to us from Jacksonville , Florida .

02:13.540 --> 02:15.970
He's been working for the Air Force for

02:15.980 --> 02:18.780
almost 40 years . So we're really great

02:18.780 --> 02:20.502
opportunity for us to get that

02:20.502 --> 02:22.730
experience to work for us here . And

02:22.730 --> 02:25.550
he's a licensed engineer and works for

02:25.550 --> 02:28.280
on railroad infrastructure , railroad

02:28.280 --> 02:31.230
bridges in particular . So I'm sure we

02:31.230 --> 02:33.286
reaching out to the asset visibility

02:33.286 --> 02:36.320
team and Mr Clawson , Mr . Both here

02:36.320 --> 02:38.542
shortly . Welcome , Bill . Appreciate .

02:38.542 --> 02:40.560
Thank you . Mm hmm .

02:42.940 --> 02:43.750
All right .

02:47.040 --> 02:50.450
Mhm . I also want to take the

02:50.450 --> 02:52.617
opportunity to just bring a rift speed

02:52.617 --> 02:55.550
on our latest a Tyndall Air Force Base

02:55.880 --> 02:58.560
covid status posture .

02:59.180 --> 03:01.370
Most folks have already heard , but as

03:01.370 --> 03:04.130
of recently , we've gone back to H B .

03:04.130 --> 03:07.200
Khan Bravo , phase two . So that's

03:07.200 --> 03:09.422
really good . We're moving in the right

03:09.422 --> 03:11.644
direction , and that's an indication of

03:11.644 --> 03:15.620
covid trends being negative and plenty

03:15.620 --> 03:17.620
of hospital capacity and testing

03:17.620 --> 03:19.564
capacity both on base and in local

03:19.564 --> 03:21.564
community . So all good signs there

03:21.840 --> 03:24.062
being in phase two , that gives us more

03:24.062 --> 03:26.007
flexibility for our work posture .

03:26.007 --> 03:28.810
We're not in any rush to to bring

03:28.810 --> 03:30.880
people back wholesale to the to the

03:30.880 --> 03:32.936
facilities . But for the director of

03:32.936 --> 03:34.824
the divisions and branch chiefs ,

03:34.840 --> 03:37.200
there's certainly more flexibility now

03:37.340 --> 03:39.451
that we can do that a little bit more

03:39.451 --> 03:42.800
liberally . Unfortunately , the mandate

03:42.810 --> 03:45.700
of 100% mask wear while you're in the

03:45.700 --> 03:48.780
building or if you're outside , you

03:48.780 --> 03:51.002
can't socially distance while you're on

03:51.002 --> 03:53.002
duty installations . It's 100% mass

03:53.002 --> 03:55.224
square . So even though we're a chicken

03:55.224 --> 03:56.947
bravo in Phase two , that that

03:56.947 --> 03:59.002
restriction is still in place , um ,

03:59.340 --> 04:01.618
from a vaccine perspective , hopefully ,

04:01.618 --> 04:03.618
a lot of our folks that were in the

04:03.618 --> 04:06.100
phase one tear have at least gotten the

04:06.100 --> 04:08.211
first dose , if not the second dose .

04:08.211 --> 04:10.460
At this point , Um , or if you're in

04:10.470 --> 04:13.720
that phase one alpha Bravo , Charlie

04:13.720 --> 04:15.776
tears . You should be expecting your

04:15.776 --> 04:18.650
eventbrite message . You're soon , Um ,

04:19.140 --> 04:22.240
if you haven't already , uh , the folks

04:22.240 --> 04:24.462
in the face to category are younger and

04:24.462 --> 04:27.060
healthy , healthier part of the team .

04:27.500 --> 04:30.030
The base is anticipating the next big

04:30.030 --> 04:32.100
round of doses coming in later this

04:32.100 --> 04:34.380
month or early April . So we still look

04:34.380 --> 04:36.602
forward to that opportunity here in the

04:36.602 --> 04:39.060
near future for our contract workforce .

04:39.840 --> 04:42.490
We initially included all of our

04:42.490 --> 04:44.490
military , civilian and contractors

04:44.490 --> 04:47.860
that the volunteers on our vaccine list

04:48.940 --> 04:51.162
and many of our contract team that were

04:51.162 --> 04:53.480
in that phase one group have already

04:53.480 --> 04:55.813
received their first and or second dose .

04:56.040 --> 04:58.262
Contractors that were received at least

04:58.262 --> 05:00.484
the first dose will finish the series .

05:00.484 --> 05:02.818
So when you get your eventbrite message ,

05:03.310 --> 05:05.477
go get your second dose of the Moderna

05:05.477 --> 05:08.170
vaccine . If you contractors , though ,

05:08.170 --> 05:10.226
that have not already received their

05:10.226 --> 05:12.448
first dose at this time , Measure group

05:12.448 --> 05:14.670
is not going to be inviting contractors

05:14.670 --> 05:17.760
anymore off the volunteer list . Um ,

05:18.140 --> 05:20.029
and they're going to focus on the

05:20.029 --> 05:22.251
military and civilians and getting into

05:22.251 --> 05:24.560
the phase two groups . Um , we did hear

05:24.560 --> 05:26.782
this week from some of our members that

05:26.782 --> 05:29.060
some retirees are being contact by my

05:29.060 --> 05:31.100
med group if they're volunteers and

05:31.100 --> 05:33.400
they're establishing a new volunteer ,

05:33.410 --> 05:37.190
uh , retiree volunteer list . So

05:37.190 --> 05:39.246
hopefully a lot of our contract team

05:39.246 --> 05:40.912
will be able to leverage that

05:40.912 --> 05:43.134
opportunity . And again , this has been

05:43.134 --> 05:45.690
an evolving situation the last several

05:45.690 --> 05:47.857
weeks , and I'm sure it's gonna change

05:47.857 --> 05:50.023
again at least another couple times as

05:50.023 --> 05:52.134
we get through March and into April .

05:52.740 --> 05:55.750
Um , and then one last comment on that .

05:56.740 --> 05:58.910
General Wilcox and General Allen have

05:58.910 --> 06:02.630
both , um , put out their commanders

06:02.630 --> 06:05.330
guidance regarding the tele work

06:05.330 --> 06:07.690
posture and what their expectations are

06:07.690 --> 06:09.910
for going forward . And General Allen

06:09.910 --> 06:11.966
is establishing what they're calling

06:11.966 --> 06:14.450
the office of the Future Working group .

06:15.040 --> 06:18.650
And we're looking at basically making a

06:19.640 --> 06:21.940
formalizing the status that we're gonna

06:21.940 --> 06:25.630
be in a 70 to 80% tele work

06:25.720 --> 06:28.410
posture for the foreseeable future ,

06:30.340 --> 06:32.396
even as we get more folks vaccinated

06:32.396 --> 06:34.729
and some of the restrictions are lifted .

06:34.740 --> 06:37.280
And again , every director will be

06:37.280 --> 06:39.280
represented in that effort . And we

06:39.280 --> 06:41.560
realized that across our work team ,

06:41.780 --> 06:43.780
different mission sets in different

06:43.780 --> 06:45.891
office teams have different different

06:45.891 --> 06:48.420
needs of being in person to do the job

06:48.420 --> 06:50.642
or needs the collaboration . So we will

06:50.642 --> 06:52.760
try to accommodate all of those in an

06:52.760 --> 06:54.871
effort to take care of the mission in

06:54.871 --> 06:57.290
and take care of our people . So anyway ,

06:57.290 --> 07:00.030
thanks for all you do and doing it in

07:00.030 --> 07:02.320
this very challenging environment , and

07:02.320 --> 07:04.542
I look for the next time we can see you

07:04.542 --> 07:04.160
in person
