[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]The typical Fed employee response to this is that others are just jealous. Well, yes…or a sense that taxpayers are paying for freeloaders, which seems unfair. Ultimately, people don’t like being treated differently for similar work, and increasingly private-sector workers feel that they are treated differently than public workers. And no, the solution isn’t for all private-sector workers to get a government job. The answer is for public-sector workers to RTO.[/quote]

How was it not equal/fair for comparable jobs?  I am a DOJ attorney, and was 3 days per week in the office, more if you had an argument or in person depo scheduled another day.  My friends at DC firms are also 3 days per week in the office, more if you have a particular in-office obligation.

A fair and very reasonable position. Unfortunately, there are too many Feds who don’t come in to the office, ever, and they blatantly disregard the suggested RTO policy, which is something that you cannot do in the private sector without losing your job.  [/quote]

Well said. For every Fed worker who has similar work location requirements as the private sector, there are many who do not. And for those who do, many do not follow them. The overall impression is that Fed workers are shirking and/or that their managers are not holding employees accountable. Essentially, separate from any productivity argument, Fed worker optics are pretty bad. [/quote]
Oh, looks like we found the author of the evidence-free Republican report! Please, tell us, from which part of your rectum did you pull this information?[/quote]
