[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]People here need to consider how this plays politically. The regular tax-paying working people really don’t want to hear that there are feds making good money off their tax dollars while working from home. I’m a liberal and even I kind of feel that way sometimes. [/quote] Well the regular tax-paying people should understand that the positions that pay relatively well generally require advanced degrees and skill sets. If they’re jealous that an attorney is making 150k while working from home a few days per week, then why not go to law school, pass the bar, move to the DC area, and apply for one of these jobs? The reality is the people who are the most upset over this are people who never left their hometowns, maybe made it through some basic major at a state flagship (or perhaps some local commuter school), and would never even bother to move up here and try to do the work we are doing. And I know this b/c I grew up in a mid size southern city that has gone majorly MAGA and this is exactly the situation many of the Trump supporters I know are in. And why is *this* what they’re upset about? What about all the corporate donations buying out our politicians? What about tax breaks for the wealthy? Some GS level fed being able to log off at home by 3:30 to pick up their kids from the bus stop is not the problem in this country …[/quote]
