Are your federal agency offices eerily quiet?

[Anonymous]

We are typically busy on Tuesdays, with a number of standing meetings with senior folks, and generally a lot of activity. It's eerily quiet today. Also, a lot of senior folks are just out of pocket, which isn't normal.

I think many are embracing their last chances at telework. Bloomberg reported that one hundred executive orders are prepped to be signed on Monday. One apparently eliminates telework.

The article doesn’t say such an EO exists or will be signed Monday. It only speculates that one might exist based on Trump and Elon’s stated priorities.

How many offices have room for the entire staff? Its not like this will happen next week. Leases will need to be signed. Cubes set up. Logistics of moving people and stuff.

“The coming orders were described by people familiar with the efforts who requested anonymity to detail the plans ahead of their announcement.”

There are also other reports that these planned EOs have been shared with senators, with some senators confirming.

The potential EO still doesn’t address how this will affect fully remote workers (not in DC). I guess we’ll find out more next week.
