First, @dcontesti is not an ISC2 employee. She is just a certified member, like me and (hopefully soon) you. She was just trying to fill you in on a few of her observations. Responding with anger towards her is not appropriate. I think you owe Diana-Lynn an apology.
Second, Leading with anger is not effective. Me, I tend to focus on the anger and miss the desired message. My edit above is pretty much all I heard. There is an old saying "you can catch more flies with honey than vinegar". I learned this in a (now) 90 year old book entitled "How to Win Friends and Influence People" by Dale Carnegie. A good read and still relevant today, but I digress. With "honey" in mind, perhaps you could reframe your concern into a constructive suggestion. Something like this would likrly increase the odds of an outcome you desire:
------------------
A 4 to 6 week (or more) queue for endorsement seems excessive, especially given that it has apparently become the norm. Wondering if consideration has been given to increasing staffing to reduce this down to 2-3 weeks during normal times, peaking at no greater than 3-4 weeks during the annual end-of-year rush. And, maybe hire temporary works to help when backlogs start to grow. If my AMF must increase to support the responsiveness I ask of ISC2, so be it.
Thanks,
Rooks.
