[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This Chairman is extremely indecisive. The rumors of realignment is just that - rumors. The point to all this madness is to actually not do any meaningful work. There is still no GC. A judge with no securities law background as its ENF director. An acting director in Exams with no securities law background either. The morale is low. More people have been checking out. [/quote]

Ok let's not malign Paul here, he is doing a lot of very important work like making Merry Christmas videos on behalf of the SEC.

Maybe I’m the only one here, but I appreciated his statements of appreciation and support of the staff.  After so much public bashing by Elon and others, it’s nice to have a leader express something positive.  Maybe my bar has been lowered too far but that was my thought after watching this.[/quote]

If he supported the staff at all, he’d sign off on the minimal telework proposal that has been proposed and is awaiting his approval (or more likely, denial).[/quote]

I think the likelihood of that happening is even lower now with what OPM just put out re telework. [/quote]

As in the past, it’s just a guide.  No Agency follows these to a tee.  A CBA would take precedence  over a guide published by OPM (theoretically) as would a legal decision.[/quote]

I think what PP is suggesting is that if OPM is still targeting TW it increases the likelihood the agency will appeal the decision just to delay it and prevent TW.  Atkins hates TW so he might appeal on his own but there is a much higher chance if OPM is telling him to appeal it.[/quote]

Exactly. I read the new thing from OPM as a stern reminder to agency heads not to slack in their enforcement of strict anti-telework policies and to reinforce that OPM doesn't intend to turn a blind eye anytime soon. They will undoubtedly be telling PA to appeal an adverse decision by the arbitrator.[/quote]

[b]Or what? What would be the repercussions if they allowed some TW? They’d fire the sec chair over that and create uncertainty in the markets, derail the various rulemakings, etc?  Sure. [/b]

This is so stupid. Just delegate to agency heads the best way to manage their agencies.

[b]This obsession with telework is so weird. [/b]It doesn’t get votes. It doesn’t save money. It doesn’t help anyone. I’ll never understand the political-economic theory behind it. [/quote]

This. It doesn’t have any teeth which is why people continue to TW. It’s unreasonable and why OPM has to keep sending out announcements about it. [/quote]
