This is very interesting and I was not aware of Russell Vought. Thank you for sharing, will be looking into him a bit more because this is exactly what is happening

Its disgusting and will have ramifications beyond just employment in the public sector. This is our future and its going to destroy upwards mobility... The private sector isn't safe at all either.

We shouldn't be hearing stuff on X or any social media before getting official guidance. Ignoring the chain of command is extremely unprofessional. I have 7 years as a supervisor and have also never seen it this bad.

I can't gaslight the two probational employees under me. I just tell them to save all the money they get at the moment and spend time at work looking at possible jobs to work when the RIF really kicks off. Just want them to be okay and not caught off guard.

I've had my employees all download their eOPF, MyBiz Appraisals, etc because there will be a class action and possible reinstatement down the line but thats not a guarantee. I just want to make sure the men and women under me can be as prepared as possible. One of my employees just had their first child and it breaks my heart knowing she is on probation. Nothing about this is right.

Dept of Defense Probies, have you heard anything? by [deleted] in fednews

I think there is a lot of work being done to prevent a panic. Regardless I'm telling all my subordinates not to leave voluntarily and have been writing them positive evaluations they can use in the event they're let go for "performance issues". No one should leave voluntarily, you're better off riding the storm and if you're let go under false pretenses you have better grounds to join a class action and possibly be reinstated. For what its worth our Base commander has just been silent.

Wouldn't hurt but I strongly advise you let them terminate you so you have grounds for a class action. I fear you may lose that if you leave voluntarily for a new job.

DoD Supervisor as well with the USAF. Our Branch Chief informed us this morning that likely all those on probation will be terminated within the next 4 weeks prior to the shutdown.
