Experts question whether Edward Coristine, a DOGE staffer who has gone by “Big Balls” online, would pass the background check typically required for access to sensitive US government systems.”

I have worked as a contractor for multiple government agencies.

Every agency is filled with waste. Every agency.

And every federal worker will say they are working so hard, every federal worker.

Meanwhile they never work on weekends, or work late during the week. They will be there from 7 to 3:15 and do the absolute minimum of work. You could fire 50% of the workers and the agency will work BETTER!.

Be respectful and be kind, but most of america wants significant reductions in the waste in government.

for every action, think, is it fair for a single parent with a child, struggling to make ends meet, have their taxes go to this federal mission. stop the waste, help the middle class , that is being kind and respectful.

I've been married to a federal worker for 25 years and I wish that were true. He works almost every weekend at home, he's had to go into the office more weekend than I can count, he's worked on vacations, he loses some of his PTO every year because he can't take it all, he didn't get to take any paternity leave with our second kid... And he could be making 3-4x his government salary in the private sector, because he is capped like all federal workers--he didn't even get a raise for many years because the federal schedule didn't budge. So I do mean this most sincerely, f*ck you and everyone else who thinks like you and/or voted for Trump.

+100 . All of my family members who are federal workers work more than the required hours and aren't eligible for overtime pay because of their pay grade. They are professional, responsible and passionate about the work they do. This constant accusing ALL government workers of being lazy is getting old and trite. Surely there must be a more humane way to keep the talented people who are invested in their jobs and not insult them by calling them "low productivity."

I have been out of gov for awhile, but while working for a startup in early 2000's we hired a lawyer from SEC. she came with amazing recommendations. hard working , smart etc etc.

she joined and dived in, after a few weeks she realized that the software development was working hard hours.

she was asked to come into an all hands on Saturday morning and was aghast. how could the company ask someone to work the weekends. she went back to the SEC within a month. guess they liked her work ethic of 7 hours a day and no weekends.

gov lawyers are a special breed, smart but lazy, and glad to stay in the gov with the process and controls to protect their work life.

Oh, well...if you knew one person who didn't want to work weekends...gasp....the horror....did she want to actually spend time with her family...how insane....

that must mean all feds are lazy.

I'm beginning to think working in the private sector has driven all of you mad. Or maybe just so angry, you don't know reality anymore.

we didn't hire anymore gov lawyers and we did very well. the other lawyers fit in well with the demands of the job.

Cool story, you must have awesome health coverage ready for your stress induced heart problems.

Sounds like he will do quite well in the private sector.. What are you worried about? People like this who are also skilled and hard working will likely make more money and come out ahead. His "stability" and "security" handcuffs now removed

Will you buy him a unicorn, too?

He sounds skilled and hard working. He will be ok without a need for unicorns. It's how we all survived all these decades through multiple economic downfalls, companies getting dissolved, merged, re-organized, jobs being outsourced, insourced, no pensions, crappy $$$ big deductible health plans, constant layoffs for no reason having nothing to do with one's performance, office relocations, changing of the already sad cube farms into the sweatshop like open floor plans, and dealing with a revolving door of higher level execs and bosses with their own agendas and "staff changes".

Welcome to the real world, my friends. I am sorry your bubble is the last one to burst. Ours burst in early 2000s... We had been fighting for crumbs ever since competing for jobs with the entire world and dealing with newer and more oppressive "productivity" measures and surveillance, turning even the most creative jobs into mindless grind. Don't tell me you didn't vote for this, because you did. Democratic party was as eager of a participant in what you see unfolding now as you could possibly imagine.

The one that has a wife and kind, living in one of the government buildings?

You think that he’s regretting it yet? lol.

What a selfish little twat to drag a child into this.

Why on earth did he do that? Did they all move here and not bother to find an apartment?

Elon demands 80 work wee from his employees. Did you see his post where he was chiding the feds from not working Saturdays and Sundays so that made him so much farther ahead at winning.

Every day we have seen new examples of outrageous waste of taxpayer money, and the fact that you oppose this exposure is not making your look good. Neither is your claim that all federal workers are busy worker bees. That is ridiculous. While there are many who are, it is a well known fact that there are just as many who have been taking advantage. My spouse is a government employee and I could tell so many anecdotes of people who would have been fired years ago in the private sector.

You being categorically against this necessary cleanup shows who you are.

Fortunately, OP represents the majority opinion about this situation, not you. Moving fast and breaking things is not the way to go about this.

You are wrong about this. Polls show that more people approve than disapprove. You need to get out of your echo chamber and realize that this is what American taxpayers want
