The federal workforce is the equivalent of the Soviet Nomenklatura.
The big difference between the Soviet bureaucracy and the US federal bureaucracy is that a much larger percentage of the federal workforce gets the special benefits that were reserved for top Communist Party members in the Soviet Union.
The Daily Wire's invaluable reporter, Luke Rosiak, reports on the sorry state of the federal workforce and on the Department of Government Efficiency's determination to reform a broken system.

Bureaucrats are so entrenched that many choose not to work at all, finding creative ways to fool the few tools the government uses to ensure that absent employees are actually doing the work they are supposed to.
~Snip~
With a Republican trifecta--control over the House, the Senate, and the presidency, Republicans should be in a position to get rid of public employee unions, but don't count on this happening without a 60-vote majority in the Senate. Not only will Democrats fight and die on this hill--public employees are a key constituency of the Democrats and one of the secrets to their hold on big city politics--but chances are good that some Republicans will work to sabotage any attempt to rein in the power of government workers.
The federal government is the largest employer in the United States, and when you toss in state and local governments about 25 million are government employees, blowing away any employer in the private sector. That's a large chunk of the entire workforce and a powerful political constituency that is tied to other unions and nonprofits, all of whom would mobilize to protect their fellow union members.
~Snip~
Government is perhaps the only industry in which the bosses actively reward inefficiency. Every time a government agency fails to do its job well, Congress rewards it with a higher budget to address the issue. In the private sector, failure usually leads to restructuring; in government, failure leads to larger budgets.
Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy understand this fact very well. The real question is whether the elephantine bureaucracy can stubbornly wait them out and use inertia to blunt their efforts to prod the agencies into reform.
I don't know who to bet on. Will two of the smartest minds in America win the battle, or the agencies whose specialty is protecting its perks and pay?

Commentary:
David Strom uses the term "Work" when referring to the bureaucrats working from home.
It's no wonder that anything done by the gov't turns into a clusterfuck. We pay these bureaucrats to work every day like the rest of us, but they fail to appear much less do their jobs.
They need to get their fat asses to work!! This should be very easy for Elon and Vivek to get rid of 50% of these lazy asshats!!
Obviously most even when at their desks were not working according to reports of illegal use of federal property accessing Porn sites.

 

[braalian]

That obviously isn’t true

 

[ThunderKiss1965]

The fact that we live in a supposedly capitalistic, free market society and the Federal Government is the largest employer should scare the shit out of anyone with more than one brain cell.

 

[frigidweirdo]

That obviously isn’t true

I'm sure there are more than 6% of jobs that actually have to be done away from home. Like people who work for federal parks, the FBI... can you imagine a raid being conducted and all the members are working from home?

 

[toobfreak]

94% of Feds Work From Home​

With a little work from Trump, maybe half those people will soon be working from the local unemployment office.

 

[excalibur]

All non-essential personnel, stay home, you're fired.

Why didn't they the first time around with Trump?

You're second tweet is from 2018.

Which means 92.7% don't work at all

What a scam

Horseshit.

According to a telework report released in August by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB), more than half, or 54%, of federal workers work fully in person as their jobs require them to be at the worksite, such as Transportation Security Officers (TSOs), correctional officers, and food inspectors.

Employees who telework as their jobs can be done remotely still work. They, for example, field phone calls from customers or process benefits claims for veterans. In fact, telework eligible employees spend more than 60% of their time working in the physical offices.

American Public, Including Veterans, Will Likely Face Service Cuts If Telework Is Taken Away

Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy’s plan to end telework in the federal government will likely backfire as a new report by a government watchdog found telework helps recruit and retain employees who provide crucial services to the American people.

As a federal employee myself, I don't believe that. Only one person in our entire department works from home. Some people get to telework one day every other week, but that's it. In my previous federal job, which I left only nine months ago, telework was only authorized if the base had to close due to inclement weather, which was maybe three times per year.

That detail has never stopped the OP before.

yea i worked 33 years in the Post Office it was kind of hard to deliver the mail from my living room.....we had no one working at home....

 

[initforme]

If many workers from home so what? All the power to them. Big offices are not necessary and any employer with 2 brain cells to rub together saves money by downsizing office space to the very least amount needed.

The empty offices still have to be paid for, derp.
Not sure of the scope of how many fed people "work" from home, but let's get real. It's time for them to SHOW UP and EARN a living!
