  1. Obama actually attempted to do that. The reason it doesn't work is that over that time frame, everyone gets an exception. Federal employees are good for the local economy. Those economies reside in congressmen's and senators' districts. People losing jobs in their districts is bad for their re-election campaigns so they fight to keep them. After it's all said and done nobody gets cut and often the bureaucracy gets bigger. Trump DNGAF he's not up for reelection. He wants to cut so he's taking a meat clever to everything. By the time all the lawsuits get settled, sure some will get hired back but most will have moved on.

    Think Biden might have won?

    Yes he would have won easily. I just wish the choice wasn't losing my job or cutting my sons d1ck off.
  3. I agree it hasn't been thought out very well. I mean how can it? The bureaucracy is complex for a reason. There are laws and policies on top of other laws and policies. It's very complex.
  4. I'm not MAGA or conservitive. I'm a very far right. So far right some of my views are left. I have said before Trump is too liberal for me.
  5. Me too, but IMO you have to use a meat cleaver in this situation. Any other way will take too long and not get the desired outcome.
  6. Yes people are very angry. I see both sides. There is a lot of waste. I tried to fire someone last year but ultimately they moved her to a different dept. Another guy took the buyout before I could process his paperwork. These are people who have been working in this office I was moved to for years. I was moved to try and clean it up, but Doge might do a lot of that for me. That being said the vast majority of people I work with are good people who do their job. They are people with families, bills, and homes. All these people losing their jobs will hurt their local economy. It will have trickle-down effects. I also see why trimming the fat is a good thing. I have plenty of service time and have only ever received top ratings. I am not worried, but I could get caught in a larger net so I'm not 100% safe.
  7. As for the email and 5 task here is what Elon is doing with it. First thing because a couple of idiots think he and his team are going to read each one. No he and his team are not reading 2.1 million emails. And people can spam the address all they want it doesn't matter. They are only wasting their own time. AI will sort all the emails and start using logic on them. For example, It will take a GS 7 in the Education dept and compare his write-up to all other GS 7s in the same education dept (it can even go government-wide). AI will make recommendations for low performers and people not working. That logic will be reviewed and refined by Elons team. This will take 2-3 weeks of receiving these task emails before it's probably 95% accurate. Once it's compiled, Elon and his team should be sending these lists to the respective depts. But as we've seen Elon seems to be working independently here and might just move into those dept on his own. Again it comes down to how strong each dept head is and if Trump makes them let Elon in.
  8. OPM is the HR wing of federal employees. They are NOT like your private company HR team. They don't hire, fire, or do any of the real HR work, because each agency, DOD, FBI, CIA, etc... have their own HR offices. The problem is so many of you don't understand that OPM has no authority to task these other agencies. It's NOT about writing 5 task it's about tasking authority. If someone from your job who works in a completely different organization than you told you send them what you did. Would you do it? The answer is no! You would tell that guy to go sit and spin and then go to your REAL boss and ask what's up. Anyone with a brain can see this makes the Trump team look extremely disorganized. Trump just got his DoD and FBI directors in. Elon and his team should be coordinating with them to accomplish these goals because they hold the real power in those organizations. As of now both of them told Elon to get in line they will decide. Ultimately Trump might tell his cabinet to let Elon do what he's doing. In which case that should have been explained before they were nominated and accepted that deal. If my boss tells me to respond to the email I will. Then and only then will I do it. For the record, because I know a couple of retards will say something. I am on sick leave today with a sick kid.

    The number one problem in America today.

    Critical thinking. Everyone looks at things on a surface level and don't ask why it could be that way.
  10. Maybe. What I can tell is we had a guy planning to retire in August. He took the buyout and will now get to sit at home getting paid until Sept 30th. He will accrue Leave and the TSP matching. Meanwhile, we need to hire someone to replace him, but we can't due to the hiring freeze so... Another guy was supposed to go next February but will also leave in Sept. So I don't know. We also need to hire someone to replace him. I would say yes it is costing us more.
  11. The vast majority of people who took the buyout were retiring later this year anyway. So they effectively are now going to pay people a few extra months not to retire and sit at home.
  12. Elon is going to retire a bunch of us early!
  13. The appropriate response from Europe is to give Ukraine its version of Starlink. Oh wait... they don't have that do they?

    Trump/Musk tonight on Fox.

    I don't plan to watch. I'll get the highlights here and on X. I expect liberals to take things out of context or straight up lie. I expect conservatives to suck both trump and elons cacks

    Coronavirus - Doomsday

    Never forget they wanted at best to strip you of your freedom at worst dead. They wanted your children taken away and reeducated. They wanted to block your access to hospitals and care. They stopped doctors from prescribing medicine that would have helped. The authoritarian push scared me way more than COVID ever did. They will do it again and it makes me sad that most people will fall for it all over again.
  16. Don't be fooled. They will switch up on all of us if given the chance. What's crazy is DEI is bad for business. They are literally hiring a less qualified candidate. I'm not sure why they were all in on it.

    Nose Rings and Tatts Yea or Nay?

    Nose rings are one of the ugliest things a person can do to their body. They walk around looking like they have a booger hanging from their nose or a wart on top of the nose.

    Coronavirus - Doomsday

    People have absolutely forgot. I had some training on Reasonable accommodation for employees and they kept saying how seriously they take keeping people's medical information private. Meanwhile while we had a list of who got the clot shot and which one they got. People want to forget because 90% of themy wanted these rules, and openly shamed people who didn't fall for the hoax. They want to forget because they are embarrassed by their own actions. Never let them forget.

    Dual Citizenship

    If he does sign it, there will be an exempt clause for a certain tribe. Just like everything else he signed.
