I can’t believe there are people at the Board that voted for this shit.

This could also be a problem.The Board previously had work at home employees report to the Washington DC Regional Office, and the Regional Office did not have enough desk space for all of them. This occurred in 2017 or 2018. The policy was then reversed and the work at home employees returned to 425 I St.

I remember that fiasco. Personally, I think management should cut headcount at the Board by 25% and increase the quota to 200 signed decisions per year to be fully successful. In exchange for a leaner and more productive Board, VA should allow exempt the Board from RTO.

Increasing that quota won't help unless the CAVC stops sending back Board decisions because they failed to discuss one single instance of knee or back pain out of 20 separate complaints.

The Board will be forced to lease additional space outside of the DC commuting area. Employees will relocate there. It will not lease additional space in the DC area as it is explicitly contrary to the Trump administration’s plans to move feds out of DC. The moves away from DC have congressional support.

To those that didn’t believe remote work and telework would be cancelled, believe this.

This could happen but will take time since government leases of private space require a bidding process.

What’s wrong with wanting to Make America Great Again? The prior regime was the worst in my lifetime.

There's more to life than being a work from home disability claim processing machine.

But, my entire life revolves around cranking out three decisions a week. Am I not a machine? Tell me, ICARE.

They’re being kicked out because they aren’t legally present in the country. As for the workplace, the high termination rate at the Board disproportionately affects Black and Brown employees the most.

Breaking the law requires punishment? Can’t we just give them a sentence them to an unconditional discharge? Seems only fair.
