[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why are Fed Workers who are not going to office not working? Clean gutters, mow lawns, paint houses, dog walking, intacart, door dash, uber, care.com

In Covid when the rest of us Canned with no back pay and we could not get unemployment payments for months as you guys at Unemployment had dated systems to do it online and shut the offices and stopped answering the phones we all did all of the above to hustle.

Why not work?  My neighbors kids started a car detailing business in driveway in covid, my kids did door dash, instacart and started a side consulting business.

But why are they at starbucks and netflix and chilling go do some work.     [/quote]

They may have to go back at any point. They can’t commit to walking a dog next week or anything else like that. There are restrictions, too, on Feds having second jobs. You’d need to get it cleared and guess what?! Those people aren’t working. Also most of the people that would hire them for such things either already have them in place or are also furloughed and therefore don’t need the help and/or also can’t afford to pay. [/quote]
