[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What do people think will happen with RTO for attorneys who aren’t within 50 miles of DC or for those of us working remotely more than 50 miles of DC? Is remote work dead? If they’re going to increase the quota without union protections & with more rigorous check ins (the union has told us of these plans over the past few years so it’s not really speculation as they now have the opportunity) with the loss of remote work or having the get ready & commute back & forth everyday, potentially long distances — I don’t see how this will be sustainable for attorneys or judges, even for the quickest or the best. We’ll be commuting & working all day. If we can’t work from home, we’ll have to work unpaid overtime at the office. Completely unsustainable.[/quote]

The administration declared remote work does not exist so they are going to fire anyone who can't report to an office. Things like the effect on veterans services don't factor into any of these firing decisions.[/quote]

Not at BVA. We are not currently reporting to the office because there is no space.  Theree are managers and a few attorneys at 425 Eye St, but most people are remote.[/quote]

so I oftened wondered where all the lawyers work.

now I know.

I still don't know what they actually do.  Seems to me just fire 50% and see what happens.   I have never met a lawyer yet that could run a business. [/quote]

What they do is decide appeals from all over the country.

Why are you interested in the agency? Do you have a case at VA?[/quote]
