And what do you think that means? Do you know their exact work hours/restrictions/total time clocked on the day you saw them playing? IF you see a time card that says they were working when they were not working, then you can talk.[/quote]

+1. Even if they were out there at 10 am, PP has no idea what are core hours, what hours they flexed etc. Maybe they were getting in hours in the middle of the night ffs. I've certainly done that when I can’t sleep. And really, it's no different than having a dr appt and flexing hours around that instead of taking leave. [/quote]
The general public doesn't view people surfing or playing pickleball during working hours favorably.

Complain all you want but everyone with half a brain and no vested interest in telework knows that it isn't acceptable behavior. [/quote]
No evidence that this is a widespread phenomenon, or even something that actually happened. Try again.[/quote]
Which is it?

Half the posters here talk about how they or their SO go and run errands everyday during telework and the other half claims it doesn't happen and everyone is working during core hours. [/quote]

Obviously people are doing it and idgaf if they worked 60 hours, if you’re a public servant you don’t go surfing at 10am on a Tuesday. If you want to do that go find a private employer who is ok with it. These firings can’t happen quicker. [/quote]
Where’s the proof this is happening[/quote]

Should start with DoD. They are the ones who get to exercise on work time. [/quote]

I used to have this at a different job. It was 3 hours a week, recorded on my time card, and I had to fill out an exercise  plan explaining what I would be doing. Supervisor signed off. Approval could be revoked, and also I was expected to skip it when we had a hot deadline.

People are following the rules. Not their fault you don't like the rules. [/quote]

Your random former employer’s are not the DOD’s but you tried.[/quote]
