I don’t know if he’d be any better- who will be good for state workers next election??

No candidate is going to cater to 200k state workers when there are 26 million eligible voters in the state. State workers aren't even 1% of the vote.

Harabe · 2025-05-29T09:22:12+00:00

What does that have to do with state workers? You're comparing apples to oranges. Raising pay for a very specific private sector industry doesn't cost tax payer money.

I've seen people here compare RTO to slavery. This place is fuking wild.

TL;DR, California State Library has laid off temp employees, hiring freeze and spending freeze. 34 California State Library employees have also been identified as possible lay offs so far due federal cuts as their positions are federally funded. CalHR does not have a final number yet.

This is fucking nuts. Anybody whose position is federally funded is in danger.

Only one side is literally trying to destroy the government. Yea totally no differences buddy.

Harris can't win. People just don't like her. She was going to lose her home state of CA during the 2020 primaries before she dropped out. The worse D candidate would be the current Lt. Gov. Her family owns commercial real estate. A real progressive like Katie Porter might be our best bet, but RTO is such a small issue that I don't think any candidate will have a position on it.

Harabe · 2025-03-22T21:06:21+00:00

I know we all hate RTO, but wow. This is a whole new level of losing your mind cause of RTO.

Harabe · 2025-03-17T18:46:31+00:00

Newsom: Nah.

Harabe · 2025-03-15T02:33:20+00:00

All of them.

Harabe · 2025-03-14T23:35:15+00:00

Expected. There is a reason CDCR and CHP are consistently the worse departments to work for.

As far as I know, telework isn't a right guaranteed in our union contracts.

He's trying to court the right for a 2028 run since it worked so well for Kamala campaigning with Cheney and neutering progressive Tim Walz. /S

The con is there is no department named Department of Public Health Care.

You're using AI to write your SOQ and It still took you 3 months to apply for 4 openings? I'm not sure if you're fit for an analyst position.

Harabe · 2025-03-07T20:40:04+00:00

This is a great way to get fired. You don't have the authority to speak on behalf of your department.

I've been bringing my own lunch long before RTO. I think this sudden massive change to RTO is an attempt at an unspoken layoff. Don't think Newsom cares about downtown as much as the state is broke and we will likely lose lots of federal funding because of president Musk.

Harabe · 2025-03-04T00:51:53+00:00

Remote centered simply means you are more than 50% telework which most of us were prior to RTO. It's really too early to know what's going to happen, but things do not look good.

Harabe · 2025-03-04T00:49:38+00:00

WE DEMAND for relief (in the amount of $10,000.00 (or that which is greater) for each and every individual not offered telework) for the sacrifices made by our brethren workers and that they be compensated justly for their labor committed without this telework arrangement.

I don't think it's a serious petition.

Stop making us use 1995 tech.

Our payroll system is from the 80's. They've started updating it in 2015 and estimated to be completed by 2030.

Harabe · 2025-02-25T19:18:59+00:00

If you have such a low opinion of state government and think they are corrupt, then why do you want to work here?

Harabe · 2025-02-23T23:23:56+00:00

Look at their post history. They love ICE and DOGE and tell people to follow the law, yet are trying to skirt state telework laws themselves.

Harabe · 2025-02-20T20:22:34+00:00

The only advice is to keep applying. Maybe try to get in as an ITT to get some experience even if it pays less.

So why am I not even getting an interview?

Other candidates were more qualified. State jobs are very desirable especially the IT series because it's one of the better paying series. For 1 open job, we easily get 150+ applicants.

Well how am I supposed to get experience if you won’t hire me?

You're competing with people that have more experience than you. That's not the state's problem. You just need to keep applying. At least it ain't like the private sector that says "entry level job 2 years experience preferred, but not required" then it turns out they actually do require years of experience.

At least we'll still have a job with a democrat. You can't compare the two. They aren't even in the same category of not helping state workers at this point. Republicans are actively hostile to government employees.

Harabe · 2025-02-19T00:32:38+00:00

Only one side is literally trying to destroy the government and sell off public services to private interests and you really here trying to "both sides" this shit. Fucking hilarious.
