[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Any MAGAs here ith jobs of the line? Is this what you expected?[/quote] It's safe to say that many people voted for Trump knowing that it may cost them their job. I'm not trying to be a jerk, but do you remember what you were all saying when Biden shut down coal? You said they need to "upskill". Learn to code, etc. These were coal miners from generations of coal miners, working in horrible conditions, dying of job related cancer, etc, living out in remote places like the hills of West Virginia. And literally no one on the left cared about these people. It's a lot to ask that these people, and the many people who've been beaten up by Biden's policies, suddenly care about well educated, highly paid people. So, take your own advice. If you think you're too niche to work outside the government (which I doubt), then unskill to something marketable. The government workforce tends to come from a lot of privilege-- leverage it. Network. Do not pity yourself and be a victim. [/quote] But those jobs were horrible anyway, so it would ultimately benefit them to find jobs that aren't killing them (if the government made more of an effort to support them where they lived, of course). Remote work provided opportunities for workers to move back to their families in areas with limited work and start families of their own. How are they supposed to find something else in their small town 2+ hours from major cities if remote work ceases to exist? We’re yet again failing small towns. [/quote] People may think that your job is horrible. That feds work in gray, padded, soulless offices and have fake email jobs. That is how people view much of federal work. They think you're getting an opportunity to contribute productively. [/quote]
