You can’t both underpay people and then require them to move to one of the most expensive and overpriced housing areas in the country.

This. And many feds will be schedule F'd depending on employment status. I would try to stick it out until after the election and then see what you want to do. You don't want to be forced to move to DC and then fired.

What does schedule F mean? Who will be moved to it?

Only those with non-bargaining positions

This is not true--Trump can and likely will move a huge number of bargaining positions (anything that could be argued to have any policy influence) to schedule F.

He will try, and will fail.

+1. I don't see this happening.

First President to win three times in a row.

Who is Franklin Roosevelt?

I’ll take presidents who have nothing to do with this discussion for $1,000.

Crap that's me. I cannot take being back in the office 5 days a week. we're three right now as it is and I'm fine with it.

If you look at the RTO plans the most seems like 5 days per pay period with many at 4 days per pay period. If you're higher level then all bets are off though.

FEMA is 4 days for pay period.

Not true. In our agency, they steamrolled the union and everyone was impacted.

DCSA- generally one to two days per week depending on your directorate.

GAO will be. Historically new employees had less flexibility than non-probationary employees and, for the past 5 years or so before the pandemic, staff had to report at least twice a pay period. The agency has announced the new system which will include an option for fully remote work. But (a) it’s hard to come in mid-career, (b) pay will be adjusted to your location and (c) some people (like those doing classified work) will have to come in regularly.

They are all moving to 5 days a pp. Notices are going out soon. Interior just got theirs this week and I know several other ones are getting them soon.

DOL.
Unions keep pushing back/extending the flexible telework situation we have. We keep being told we'll move to 5× in office days per 2-week period. Decision/enforcement is likely being delayed to the summer now at the very earliest.
