Not that this affects me but I'm glad management came to their senses.

NEWS Navy to end ending all enlisted ratings!
- Thread starter AQ-AT-NAVCIV
- Start date
What blows my gourd is paragraph 4 from the message:
4. Since we made the initial rating modernization announcement in
September, the SECNAV, MCPON and I, along with other Navy
leadership, have had the opportunity to speak with thousands of
Sailors during our travels throughout the fleet. The feedback from
current and former Sailors has been consistent that there is wide
support for the flexibility that the plan offers, but the removal of
rating titles detracted from accomplishing our major goals.
Furthermore, there has been a solid body of thoughtful input that
pointed out that there is a way to have the benefits of the rating
modernization program without removing rating titles.
Holy F*** batman! Maybe that is something that should have been down before rolling out this half-assed thought process! That was the problem from the beginning in my opinion. They never tied the ratings to the flexibility as well as I would have liked to justify the change.
