Proof that (as I've been telling people for years) Elon Musk has no credibility as a leader, maybe he'll try to fire Kash Patel next week

All that means is that there’s jostling for power. It does NOT mean that the superfluous, unnecessary workers get to keep their jobs.

We aren’t talking about private companies. They can do what they want, since the salaries are paid by the owners.

We are talking about government workers, who are paid by taxpayers. We are paying WAY too many workers, and many (if not most) are taking advantage of work-from-home because until now, they were getting away with it. We want them back in the office.

We've listened to these morons crowing from the roof tops about security even when applied to the former POTUS, and here they are whining that they can't work from home. How much security is there? What keeps them from saving sensitive info to PRIVATE SERVERS? Oh sorry, it's not Trump, these lesser federal employees have integrity. SMFH.

My wife worked for the USDA, and she was treated better than the private sector.

This is what they accomplished!

Yes, and companies have learned that they don't need all that expensive sq footage. That employees will actually put in more hours if they don't have to fight a commute. My life is better because when I need a mental break, instead of going to the coffee machine and chatting a coworker for 10 minutes, I can start a load of laundry, one less task to do at night or on the weekend.

There is a yin and a yang to everything. But, the fact is, several large cities, including their states, have been devastated by the doom spirals caused by work from home.

Yes, I can start at 8 or 9 if I wanted but I get up early (now that I'm old). I manage my time myself, I'm trusted to work 40 hours.

Before Covid I drove an hour into the office in Scottsdale, about one hour each way. We were sometimes allowed to work from home, as a perk, but it was not fully sanction at the company level, it was discretionary by the department manager. I could usually WFH one day every week or two typically, especially when things were quieter like after a big project had been delivered and settled down.

Many other staff were not allowed to WFH people who manned phones and enquiries and so on, so there was a political aspect to this, their jobs were deemed unsuitable for WFH and even though programming is fine as WFH it wasn't really endorsed because of these other departments.

Then Covid came.

My wife has a chronic genetic lung condition that was a huge worry once Covid started to make itself known, she was at risk. and I did not want her to get infected (this was months before any vaccines appeared) so I asked my boss for permission to work fully from home until there was some assurance that she'd be safe.

He said to wait a few days as there was likely going to be an announcement and there was. All staff (well virtually all) were told to WFH full time. Us software people were fine, working remote is very well supported for programmers, we've been doing it on and off for years.

This became the norm, I visited the office once again in early 2022 then never again, about a year ago the entire building was abandoned as the lease expired so now there is no Arizona office so even if someone wanted to return to office working it would be a huge deal and cost a lot, the money saved by losing large office buildings is considerable.

Another upside for the company and staff is that people can literally relocate to anywhere in the US and remain employed. This means we have staff spanning all US time zones and that's a help because customers are spread across all time zones too.

So, I checked your posting history and you have dozens of posts during the work day. How does that work?

I only know what I know. BTW, the post office isn't "really" a government agency.

When I worked for the Government, I had to do that every week.

It went into the Weekly Activity Report that went to Command Level

Government employees hace cushy jobs and very little responsibility.

I once knew a 'mailman' who got is mail route down to 4 hours. He was supposed to go back to the PO and work the remaining hours but he would just go home and then, turn up at the PO close to check out time.
