[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They released the FAQs and it clarifies that you'd only have to work on rare occasions. I'm seriously considering the offer. I love my job, and I voted for Trump (come at me!).  But it appears that forced relocations are in the mix. My spouse makes 7 figures. I think I might just leave and find a consulting gig. [/quote]

Propaganda[/quote]

No, I'm a real person. The number of people with circumstances similar to mine is vanishingly small so I don't think my situation would work well for propaganda. I've already been on the fence about continuing in the government for various reasons that have nothing to do with politics. I've enjoyed my career and just considering leaving while the party is still fun. [/quote]

If you trust Elon Musk will pay you to do jack then just send them the resignation email. So few people are going to do it that they might highlight your situation in the next OPM email blast.[/quote]

I don't trust Elon to pay me. I trust that the money is already obligated against my FTE. All they have to do is not *remove* that obligation. Look, I'm not a dummy, I've been in the government a long time and am very senior. There are a lot of questions left open in the email, but the budget is a no brainer. [/quote]

It's not obligated against your FTE.  It couldn't possibly be because no money past March 14 has even been appropriated.  And when people resign, they don't get paid anymore no matter whether the money was there or not because it's not legal to pay salaries to people who are no longer employees.[/quote]

Don't listen to this logical explanation, trust your instincts pp and send that resignation email like you sent that $500 to the Nigerian prince last time.[/quote]

I dunno, i have some elderly relatives working in the govt and they probably want to take it rather than come in to work 5 times a week. Sounds like a pretty decent deal to me. The private sector doesn't give anything this good.
