[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Anyone who moved away from the commuting area, or took fully-remote job, knew there was the chance of this happening under a different administration.  [/quote]

And what about those of us who had hybrid jobs for over a decade before COVID even happened and lived close to the office, but then our office shut down and we have nowhere to go?

What did we plan wrong? Should I have seen the Trump Administration and these ridiculous spiteful RTO EOs coming back in 2009?

And like a PP said *I* was the one in the family who took the career hit. I graduated near the top of my class from a highly ranked law school. I gave up earnings for this flexibility because I knew I wanted to have kids.

So many on this board want to lecture us for not planning better or not taking a career hit like everyone else, but for many of this, this was our plan/career hit to work for the government. But people got jealous of my life choices and decided it’s not fair (although I don’t hear similar outrage over telework in the private sector 🤔). It doesn’t seem like most posters are against employees in private industry getting to WAH, so I think it’s just the idea of the federal workforce they’re mad about, not telework itself.

If our pay was cut in half and our benefits slashed and we were all told to work 80 hours per week, I’m sure these same people would cheer and tell us to suck it up because they’re hellbent on hating us no matter what. It’s frankly bizarre and they’ve clearly been brainwashed by Trump.[/quote]
