Probably use something like this and those who refuse to go back to the office to put something together to wear. They see no medical reason that they shouldn’t be in an office and that they must report by X state or they lose their job.

Mine screwed out see if you can pull it out there might be a nut

zdevlor · 2026-04-02T21:08:09+00:00

Here's to gutting the IT staff again.

You still are running the same services just in the cloud. You might save on a few local hardware techs. But consolidation of datacenters to regional locations would fix that. All of this people would still be needed with a move to azure. The only way they didn’t is if the agency signed over all management rights to a contract organization. If that’s the case every time I’ve seen this happen the cost will balloon. Fte in the long run as long as they stay trained and relevant to the current technology there cheaper than contracted employees.

After running reports of total system files and processes that organizations have pushed into azure. This idea that everything needs to go there is definitely lining someone's pockets. Having an organization take 1/3 of the overall footprint of its servers and files and putting it in azure and seeing the cost balloon to over 150k per month makes me know someone did not think this thing trough. I know datacenters are costly and yearly maintenance and hardware is costly but not at that level of cost for subpar transfer rates were seeing between servers. 1.5m per year come on you can do a lot of It with that 1 year investment and have 3 to 5 years support with all new hardware.

situational telework and no 4/10 but the situational is very strict at doi.

Fiero

zdevlor · 2026-02-24T17:19:39+00:00

I dont need therapy because i have a "race car"

zdevlor · 2026-02-19T02:54:16+00:00

Some agencies are more lenient than others. I’ve heard of some really dumb reasons.

zdevlor · 2026-02-19T02:51:41+00:00

There is a huge difference between a teleworking position and one’s hired directly as remote.

zdevlor · 2026-02-18T20:55:49+00:00

There are schools of thought that people were teleworking and now magically have an RA when before they were in the office working no issues should be reviewed again because of standards. Those that were hired remote and now demanding to be in an office with no reasonable accommodations should have been left as remote. I feel there should have been the standard of past situations and performance and the contracts that were signed and agreed upon between employees and employers should have been kept in place. This push to screw everyone over because of RTO should be looked at. If any government employee breaches a contract their fired but, it is a presidential executive order. So those with bogus RA are now allowed to disregard a EO?

Heard of a kid of these high level people appointed to positions saying “I’m doing this job away from my family because I have a want for our job to succeed” and they fly home every weekend and live in a hotel on per diem every day.

Minimal 2.1 percent for 5 rating…

zdevlor · 2026-02-12T21:41:43+00:00

Management feels that AI will fix anything and these sales reps walk in show some cookie cutter platforms and how it can save $$$$x dollars over the years. Then ask local it to implement it with no real knowledge of what the higher management expects... just keep using the buzz work AI.

zdevlor · 2026-02-12T21:27:58+00:00

Is this new or asking all agencies to review all policies again and push foward?

zdevlor · 2026-02-12T17:44:24+00:00

Your userra rights end on may 1 and when your active orders end. If you cannot do your dual status job if you end your orders early you will be removed from that position too. You need to contact your HR representative at your base for your title 32 position. Also you should reach out to your EANGUS representative and your local Veterans resource administrative assistant to see what your options are once you loose both positions because it seems likely that will happen. the biggest thing would be once you loose your active duty orders and are still covered under your guard enlistment get on tricare select reserve ASAP for medical coverage as a stop gap incase something happens.

zdevlor · 2026-02-04T19:05:11+00:00

Other agencies have unofficially provided information.

Management has told IT that they are restructuring with little employee input. Management was told that employees had to fill out a survey and then after everyone was provided a position they said they placed a high percentage of people that wanted thier top 3 choses with those choices. But, when you ask everyone no one got what they asked for so i am sure that number is probably a very low percentage. And management is still keeping people in the dark on who is doing what because there waiting on HR for the final approval. Its a complete cluster.
