Saw the Trump comment re: telework and dismissal, any words of sane advice

[Anonymous]

he average annual salary for a federal employee in Washington, DC is between $120,579 and $127,470 and average salary of a Chase employee is $67,800 a year.

Yet Chase is full time back in office. Yet DCUM claims cause Feds are lower paid they should work from home. Yet they make almost double a Chase employee makes.

Is that the average salary of a Chase employee in DC?

-I'm just as productive at home!
-No you're not!
-I'm going to stop working unpaid OT if I have to RTO
-There's not enough office space!
-Traffic!
-This will cause chaos
-That's the point!
-Feds agreed to lower wages in exchange for flexibility
-No one promised you telework was forever
-People went to the office 40 hours a week before and so can you

its dcum - what did you expect? lol

I am not union so no lawsuits to drag out - just a remote employee with stellar performance. Besides looking for jobs in private sector what else can I do? Have been a remote employee since pre pandemic. You all have been sane in your commentary about doge but it seems that all hope is lost with it coming from Trump now. I really love my job and I’d move back if it wasn’t for my kids and schools.

Elon’s going to find out pretty quickly that sending people to Mars will be so much easier than sending them back to their desks.

I hope this issue is similar to grocery prices…nothing will change.

The only real change with the Trump administration will be in the billionaires’ pockets.

Maybe less. Chase only pays the people in Park Ave Headquarters the big money. But in DC it is like $30 hour back office and Branch jobs like Wealth Mgt advisor.

Trump's and his theater and bombast. They will shake their little fists and screech and sweat, and in the end they will agree to have agencies send in phased in plans for return to office that will be all for nothing in four years time. It's all smoke and mirrors and theater for the base.

There is a proven track record for Elon and Trump. They dismantle quickly in the name of dismantling, there is no regard to doing things the best way, just the fast way. Fall out doesn't matter and might be part of the goal.

Good luck with that. Bro’s going to find out that the federal government is not Twitter.

And that Congress doesn't necessarily like to be circumvented and treated as powerless. If he doesn't watch out the Dems and Republicans on capitol hill might actually start seeing eye to eye on a few things.

Assuming there is some period of time
Before these RTO orders actually go into effect, do you all plan to go in to the office before then? Knowing that politicals will view that more favorably? Or just wait until you’re actually required to be there every day?

Why would there be any substantial period of time before it goes into effect?

I assume once the order is issued, it will go into effect within a week or two.

I now go in person less than I did before Nov 7th.

Was going in three days a week for the past two years, and went in at least one day a week during the entire pandemic. Now I've cut in office down to one day per week. Screw them.
