Acting Transportation Director on Leave and Out Of Touch...Does This Sound Familiar?

Acting Transportation Director Kwaku Agymemang Duah is vastly more approachable and communicative than was his predecessor  Danielle Matland who left the department in shambles. Matland was well known for taking many extended absences while collecting her $130k+ salary for running down the run-down Annapolis Transit system. As pointed out here before, Mayor Cohen kept her on at full salary for months--but without any apparent duties while he fumbled....and continues to fumble as he supposedly looks for a full-time replacement...almost a year later.  BUT...while Matland was often away on vacation for long periods, and those writing to her were met with auto reply emails saying she would be returning in a week, or two, or maybe even longer, Duah has been much more communicative.

HOWEVER, recently something has gone amiss.

ACP recently wrote to Duah, and got an auto reply on September 10 saying "I will be out of the office on September 7 and 8. If you need assistance on these days, please contact Iain Banks at 401-263-7964, extension 6004."   So I wrote back saying "But Kwaku,,,,,this is September 10th...." to which I got another auto reply that said "I will be out of the office on September 7 and 8. If you need assistance on these days, please contact Iain Banks at 401-263-7964, extension 6004."

I thought about keeping this going back and forth like a volley at Wimbledon--you know the old definition of insanity.... but...stay tuned....
