[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]At my agency, the DOGE bros fired 10%, and then another 10% of us resigned or retired and went to work in private industry.

Now the idiots are saying they need to hire that 10% back. Sure. With what HR staff? Those of us who went to private industry don't want to come back. And a lot of the other feds who were RIFed don't have the right expertise.

DOGE screwed up thousands of lives, depleted people's bank accounts and retirement, ensured that federal employment is going to be a last resort for new graduates, and has create huge gaping holes in the country's health research.

And they didn't even create a sfh real estate sell off like they wanted, because most of us feds couldn't afford to buy that much anyhow.  [/quote]

Do you have to hire the 10% back all at once? [/quote]

The federal government will take decades to get back to the level of expertise it threw away.  If it ever becomes that attractive to new employees again.  They eliminated the Presidential Management Fellow program.  They fired or forced to resign many of their 40-55 year old workers.  That level of expertise isn't easliy re-hired.  They found new jobs.  They likely also moved.  You can re-hire some people, but the most desirable workers have moved on and aren't chomping at the bit to return to the federal government.  [/quote]

I guess we will just wring our hands for the next twenty years. No reason to even try hiring anyone. [/quote]

Or you could vote for the mayoral candidate who has the best plan to try to fix this mess. [/quote]

Again, why on earth would you expect the municipal government to solve an issue the federal government created and is the only party that can solve?  You're blaming the wrong entity.[/quote]
