I already answered you but you keep throwing this hissy fit. The starbucks news came out this morning. We've had govt layoffs for weeks. Are they all over the news? I don't watch but you tell me,

Here's a thought, if you have an issue with Tim, address it with Tim. But when you create a thread like this referencing "you guys" and get proven wrong, you might want to delete it. If you thought Tim was wrong to create that thread last week, then why are you creating a similar thread this week? wrong is wrong. Be better boyo.

I think you should go to your local shelter and pet a puppy before your head explodes.

That was Tim being Tim. Take it up with him, Super Mike.

You're an idiot.

And federal workers don't? What would you do if you got this email from HR?

UNHINGED Oh and last weeks' drop was 967 points (2.65%). Up 188 now (.4%)

Maybe it's starting to sink in

Give it time man. Jeebus, relax. They just announced the starbucks layoffs today. It's all over the news. It's not like it's being ignored.

My media? I don't own any media. I'm guessing they are covering it because it's in the news right now. You would prefer that the media just ignores these people so the rest of us have no idea what's going on with our government?

Wrong again. If Biden did this I would be just as offended an disappointed. You assume too much without knowing what you're talking about.

Didn't say that. It's all about the process, justification and humanity. These cuts are not to save money.

I've never gotten an email from someone outside of my company over a weekend asking me what I did last week and my lack of reply was a resignation. If you can't see how that's messed up then you're the problem. Also yes status reports are done all the time even for federal employees which is why it's even more egregious to get this email. If an outsider wants to know what I did last week, ask my boss. They know. I know what my employees did last week.

What is the point of this thread? Are you magas trying to justify Musk's dismantling of the govt? Starbucks lays people off therefore it's OK that the govt does? Libs don't care about starbucks so why should maga care about federal employees? I don't quite get the angle here?

I think you are misplacing your hatred. The Republicans are the party of "just work harder" and "pull yourself up by your bootstraps" and "probably DEI anyway". It's liberals that have empathy. I'm assuming you are female which means you are a DEI hire anyway.

I have some experience farming especially in the iLadies space

What are you talking about it hasn't happened? It has happened and those people are talking. If they continue then more people will talk.

Over the weekend the president posted a spongebob meme while Musk stumbled around a stage with a chainsaw high as a kite. But yeah the left needs to grow up.

Never reported you boyo. As someone that has been suspended multiple times I can empathize with you.

Unemployment doesn't provide full salary, sometimes you get nothing if it was based on performance. Unemployment also runs out

The people that I've read stories about a high number of them. I know the narrative is that govt employees all get paid millions while sitting around watching Netflix but this couldn't be further from the truth.

I read stories of regular people flooding doge with emails, signing them up for spam, etc. Anyone that thinks this was a legitimate request for information is dumb. This is just harassment and intimidation.

I don't know how the media is treating any of these people differently but anyone that loses their job is a shame, especially people that live paycheck to paycheck.

Disagree on people getting paid while looking for another job. Issues I have with the process is it's chaotic. They are firing people that shouldn't be fired. They fired people that are in charge of nuclear weapons. Then realized they shouldn't have fired them and tried to hire them back. They are firing people if they ever took a DEI training before, some took DEI training under Trump 1.0 and now are fired for it. Others fired based on performance but have gotten positive performance reviews or no performance reviews at all. Inspectors being fired whose job it is to identify waste, fraud and abuse the very thing they are telling you they are fighting. Firing IRS agents who are a net positive cash flow on the govt which makes zero sense unless the reason for firing them was so that people can get away with tax evasion and fraud. Funding? Farmers who lost out on selling their crops for USAID. People who had approved govt grants for their small businesses that now got them revoked and may go under. Research funding for diseases that result in lost jobs and lost scientific advancements. These scientists finding jobs overseas reducing the role of the US as a scientific leader in the world. None of this was thought out or planned. You have a drug addled idiot waving a chain saw around on stage cheering on his complete dismantling out the US. People like you think it's all good.
