[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For supervisors, how are you handling discussions around this with your employees? I find it challenging to balance toeing the company line for risk of being fired with being sympathetic to how disruptive this will be to people’s lives (though I feel some of the DCUM responses are a bit entitled also)[/quote]
I'm a supervisor and I honestly don't care.

Take the deal and come to work or quit. I'm sick and tired of the entitlement from other federal workers. Democracy goes both ways. We all sat through years of DEI training and the other craziness during the Biden years that a lot of us disagreed with. I remember sitting in training and having some GS14 patronize us and tell us if we disagreed with DEI then we were racist. Hope she likes unemployment and all the other people who joined in enjoy their commutes.

Your post has some racist dogwhistle language in it.  I’m glad you’re not my supervisor.  You shouldn’t be allowed to manage anyone. [/quote]
It's probably someone that doesn't actually work for the federal government.  I've been at my agency for over a decade and we never had any DEI training.  And if there was anything to that effect it certainly was not mandatory. [/quote]

As I have written elsewhere here I probably had over 30 hours of mandatory DEI training during the Biden administration. Most of it done at night because I was too busy during the day. [/quote]
Oh, yeah? What were the trainings? Name the courses.[/quote]

You’re full of it bro. I don’t even think we have 30 hours of training in general.

You have clearly never been a manager at the Department of Labor. [/quote]
Well you got me there. Never worked at DoL but have worked at two other agencies and we never had anything close to 30 hours of training AND nothing involving DEI. [/quote]

DOL employee here and yes, this is a lie. 5 years in the agency and a new manager, and I think I have done about an hour a year of anything like unconscious bias trainings, across administrations. A lot of trainings are optional. Maybe people felt peer pressure to do them but there have been very few mandatory DEI related trainings, the most I can remember is an unconscious bias training years ago, during the Trump administration![/quote]
