But I was particularly disappointed in Winter for not standing up to it, he had the personal stature to do so, he didn't have to just roll over like a fat seal.

As to the issue of who should recognize and own the problems a homesick 19 year old non English speaking South American might be having here, and who was best positioned as a person to handle that, screw the org chart, that seems incredibly obvious to me.

I can't look at Plata and Silva without wincing.
Completely agree, from this perspective.

I guess I was meaning that the roles, as they were defined, seemed to pin the responsibility on Mariner.. but, I'd be lying if I said Winter's meek demeanour didn't sometimes draw my ire.
