[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How long do you think it will take for the cuts to start happening? I love my job, work very hard, and always thought I would stay at my agency until retirement. I now face the prospect of losing my job in my late 50s... I can't afford to retire and know how hard it is to find a new job at my age. It feels bleak. [/quote] Assuming that you have been at your agency for a while, if your agency has a RIF, you'll probably be in good shape to remain. Yes, if you're at the Education Department, you need to worry about them shutting it down entirely, but I'm not sure how that could even happen - so much of what the department does, like student loans, would need to be handled somewhere else. And it would take quite a few years to wind down. By that time, Dems could very well control the House and slow things down even more. [/quote]
