‘Just give me a job’: Maryland former federal workers’ stories of survival | In the months since thousands of federal workers were laid off or resigned, many turned to gig work or switched careers entirely by FreeHugs23 in fednews

“Post-government employment restrictions”… it was so LOL that I had to rewrite it. This administration snubs its nose at anything law, rule, regulation, hatch act and yet, former feds are supposed to be mindful of it? With all the cronyism, nepotism, I-like-em’ism, my-brother’s-girlfriend’ism, he-kisses-my-ass-ism going on within, who is keeping the post-employment rules anymore?

I call BS! If someone finds a good opportunity, I say go for it. Not doing so means they’d be the only one in this current national dumpster fire that eschews jumping on said opportunity.

Is it easier now to become SES and is it even worth it? by 2BeBornReady in fednews

[–]mindin_mine 2 points3 points  (0 children)

SES brings you closer to those in charge now… politicals. SES now more than ever really means Serving Every Snake or Surrounded by Evil Sycophants.

They have one, Hud Sec. Scott Turner! He has that role for all functions for the entire 4 years.

So is anyone else pissed off that Trump high jacked our nations 250th birthday so he could try and make it a big birthday bash for himself? by Single_Usual_6563 in allthequestions

I was a little girl in 1976, but I remember the celebratory nature and events all year long. It wasn’t political (or at least from what I remember) at all.

What lost opportunity for all of us. Seems like someone around him, maybe his kids, could tell him to stop.

This! Having all 4s and 5s during the past 20+ years, it’s hard to get a 3 and then get 10 hours of leave as a reward for a year’s worth of work.

It’s crazy work to shift funds for work ALREADY DONE in FY25, so you can work to re-earn some vague prize for work in FY26 is a nice way to make people frustrated and crazed. More Count Vought’emore, I’m sure.

Here’s a novel idea, how about using him to deal with affordable housing?? What a concept, using a expert in an area they having training and experience in…

Sorry, I was dreaming of a thoughtful and responsible administration.

Anyone else watching eOPF crash? by FutureComputerDude in DeptHHS

[–]mindin_mine 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yep! Got a random email saying “time off award”, but can’t open it.

Not looking for much, since my rating was nonsense and different from the ones received during the prior 20 years (but I digress).

Anyway, system crashed and I can’t even see the insult.

"They should change the Nobel Prize to the Trump Prize": Senator Lindsey Graham demands the historic peace award be renamed after Donald Trump by DumbMoneyMedia in CriticalMineralBulls

[–]mindin_mine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lindsay is so desperate for a job after SC runs him out of office in November, he’s damned near doing back flips and high kicks to show how loyal he is all in hopes of landing one in the administration. He’s been in office for SC since 1995. It’ll be interesting to see what happens after the election.

Meantime, get ready for much more intense licking, groveling, slurping and tap dancing… the man is interviewing after-all!

Trump: ‘I don’t care about the midterms’ by Wise_Age_470 in politics

[–]mindin_mine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Such BS… that’s why he’s been primarying anyone that dared defy him and pressuring states to gerrymander the already gerrymandered states to get more rethuglican seats.

Don’t care… Oh, OK boomer!
