[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't see how some places are going to cut 20% unless they assume the fired civilians will be replaced, more expensively, by contractors or military. Some offices are really small (like mine)[/quote] What I'm hearing is the functions will be cut. So, it won't be doing the same or more with fewer people but doing less with fewer people. The ground forces were always going to be downsized as the wars wound down and there's definitely space to trim billets out of the majors staffs (the COCOMs and OSD got huge during the last decade). But this is a very steep contraction, compared to history, so I think there's real risk that one's losing important functionality. And, yeah, spending a ton of money to axe things quickly. I think in most offices natural attrition and billets that have been open during the hiring freezes will pretty much cover the gap and there won't be huge RIFs.[/quote]
