[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Everyone on these threads talks past each other bc everyone ignores the 800 gorilla in the room — namely, that there are at least 2 groups of staff, which are affected VERY differently by RTO, career exit options, doge, etc:

1. Highly credentialed lawyers and accountants and economists, and

2.  Support staff, IT folks, etc.

Those groups keep arguing with each other, which is futile. [/quote]

You are right the two groups are different, but I’m not sure that is the source of disagreement here.

I’m not even sure which group would be the I’m only here because I am stuck and which would be it’s not that bad.[/quote]

I think a lot of people on the "it's not so bad I still like it here so will stay" category are those either r with minimal family obligations or they are using leave and assuming it is temporary. I think a lot more people will feel the pain if this goes on for over 6 months. It is simply unsustainable. Can you imagine when fall comes and everyone is coming in with the flu? I will be shutting my door all day and dialing into calls.[/quote]

I know I'm an outlier but I'm worried about Covid. Not just general paranoia, I have some health concerns. Now there's talk of some new strain in Asia which is popping up in Hawaii and NYC so it'll be in DC in no time. And already there are people in my group who come in sick with other stuff because usually they catch it from their kids; they take days off to care for the kids, just as the kids are better, they catch it and feel like - how many more days can I take off. I totally understand that concern but I also don't know what I'm supposed to do either.[/quote]

yep. With covid or flu or even a bad cold, between me and my kid, that could be almost a whole week+ of sick leave. [/quote]
