Need to backfill lost federal positions. It's bizarre that Republicans think government needs to be cut, cut, cut when our population, or economy, the complexity of modern society and technology, and number of issues needing governance have grown, grown, grown. Republicans are so full of backward notions that defy logic and reality. In many departments feds are already laid so bare that they wouldn't even have enough capabilities to automate or help augment themselves by standing up customer service chatbots. |
Yeah we need to be forced back into our offices downtown so that restauranteurs can sell us a mediocre sandwich for $17 |

Mayor Bowser is the one waging war on federal workers. She is trying to end work-from-home policies.
She’s a democrat, I believe. |
This 1000+. I am sorry for them, but I am also sorry for all the mom and pop dry cleaners out there who have gone under because no one dresses up for work when teleworking. And sorry for all the waitstaff out of work because of the increases in take out and delivery. It's all part of the creative destruction of a dynamic economy, and it's not going back to the way it was, ever. Like everyone, they must adapt to the new reality. |
I'm sorry that you're nervous about losing your fed benefits and salary. |
Yep. Things constantly change. I don't see many people shedding tears these days about how all of the horse liveries went under when people stopped coming into town on horseback for work. Nor the switchboard operators... |
Dry leaning is absolutely horrible for the environment! |
So is commuting, which is overwhelmingly done by car in D.C. And wait-staff typically deliver meat dishes; everyone knows meat as protein is destroying our environment. |
