[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The way we here about these layoffs i thought it was like 20% of the total federal workforce.[/quote]

That might be true. They fired all of USAID then a whole bunch from large agencies like IRS, SSA, HHS, and VA. A whole lot of new employees across the government were fired as well but may be classified as employed due to lawsuits. There's a large but unknown number of fed employees on paid admin leave where they aren't fired but still get paid. [/quote]

Yep, I know people who were RIFd and are jobless, someone who was RIFd and remains on paid leave 8 months later, multiple people who were RIFd and either reinstated due to litigation or un-RIFd because nobody else could do their tasks, multiple people who were RIFd from one agency but landed at another so they're still feds ... from a reporting perspective, it's a mess. 
And that's just RIFs, not buyouts who are still being paid, which news articles sometimes include as well. [/quote]
