[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I know quite a few people at CFPB who were fired this week. They are not probationary and they were supposedly fired for cause. No severence. Maybe they can convince the state to offer them unemployment, but goes against everything civil service laws are supposed to protect against.[/quote]

What is happening is awful, but it may help to be clear- the only employees that have been fired are either probationary or on a temporary term limited appointment that was ended early.  Both of these categories have very limited employment protections.

I'm fairly certain that no employee past probation on a permanent career employment has been fired...yet.[/quote]

No one placed on admin leave has been fired yet? Seems a lot of FBI agents have been summarily fired as well.[/quote]

Even if they are only probationary, they still did a job that now will not be done and the ripple effect will seep into fed workers and in every town in the US. The job loss is traumatic but the loss of services, protections, people who you didn’t have to even worry about who were doing their jobs……. That’s government service.[/quote]

Every town? You're being dramatic. [/quote]

Is it better if I say most towns? You really don’t understand the scope of federal assistance.[/quote]

You're not helping your case. Federal assistance should not be so prevalent that every single town in America will be affected by the loss of some minority percentage of federal workers. Moreover, it's not clear why firing, for example, a management analyst at OPM, would affect funding in a way that would be felt across the country. [/quote]
I thought we had to fire everyone because we have SOOO much debt from  all the government employees. But now firing them has no impact? Which is it?[/quote]
