Not interesting in engaging with trolls on this. Go to google, look it up, and start a new thread if you’d like to discuss it.

That is what this thread is!

This is a different poster, just truly trying to understand what this means.

Do you really need a translator to translate from Google?

It is very broad. My position def falls within. Sigh.

This link is broken.

We can be fired at any time without cause. Get it now? Thanks and go back to your little cave

Isn't that normal work?

Don’t feed this troll.

No I won’t. Why mock civil servants who can be fired on a whim? It’s disgusting

How many normal jobs are subject to a brand new administration with varying political ideologies every 4 years?

I imagine a lot of private companies would have a hard time hiring and retaining at will employees if they knew every 4 years there would be a huge turnover in management who may decide to fire them and replace them with their own people. Which is why to function the government provides civil workforce protections. This isn’t even a uniquely American thing, it’s a functioning government thing.

Will employees in a union be more protected than those who aren't? No manager or supervisor is in a union and there are agencies that are not unionized.

This is pretty much the premise of a lot of private equity investment, so this unfortunately is not an unusual scenario in the private sector. Which is one of the reasons I am very empathetic to the uncertainty and worse that you are all going through right now. It’s just rotten. I’m sorry.

But does apply to the GS-14s who manage them. Yet another reason I’m thanking my lucky stars I pushed back against my managers suggestions that I apply for one of these jobs. No BU + Schedule F? HARD PASS.

Why wouldn’t it apply to line attorneys who help draft rules/regs?

I should have clarified d- the last link posted isn't working.

They don’t need schedule F to fire us. They are already firing career employees without schedule F.
