[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I mostly do crossword puzzles. I have maybe 2 hours of work a day now. I used to be so swamped that I had to eat lunch at my desk or skip it most days.

You think that's the dream and it's fun for maybe a week, and then you are bored out of your mind.

I've also significantly increased my reading in 2025. I usually do a goal of 12 books a year. This year I've already physically read or listened to 32 books!

I fill in a lot of that time with other busy work I scrounge up to do. Mostly I just sit around and try not to fall asleep since my office walls and door are all glass.  :lol:  :lol: [/quote]

This is obviously an anti Fed troll, since most Feds don’t get private offices and those that do get them because they deal with sensitive matters and thus wouldn’t have all glass walls and doors.  But someone who is not a Fed wouldn’t know that. [/quote]

Perhaps, but I am a Fed who does have a nice glass wall office. No, I don't do crosswords but the volume of work has slowed down. Can't initiate new activities but we are planning just in case Congress keeps our appropriations at a decent level. Of course, as soon as we know we can spend, the work which would require the whole team but must be done by less than 50% of our original personnel remaining.

But the nice office will not last long (IYKYK)[/quote]

Another fed with glass wall offices (but many of us are hoteling most days as there isn’t enough space).  Our work has significantly increased given the number of employees that have left. [/quote]
