We have quite a few lucky b@stards on DETO agreements. Another several on medical accommodations. The rest of us get situational telework leftovers. It really makes for some great team dynamics.

This is not agency wide.

Still exists. I’m requesting it around Christmas. I know others have had it before the Jewish holidays

Treasury had not provided guidance so we are told we gave to wait

Maybe the Christian Nationalists will give us Christmas Eve off.

What do you all think of taking religious telework on Christmas Eve?

Not at my husband's or my former agency. Morale is so, so low at both places, which sucks for a lot of reasons, including that both were successful, productive, mission-driven places with a great work-life balance. Now it sucks.

I know someone who has religious telework once a week.

Same, but as a reasonable accommodation. She had to complete paperwork to request it. It isn’t permissible under our standard telework policy, which is 8 hours per month, with supervisor pre-approval.

It’s slowly and quietly returning at my agency. I know several teleworked during the shutdown.

Only the new political 🙄

Hi! Neighbor here. Im on annual leave. I take 1 day a week during the holidays to get caught up. I also work an AWS schedule and have every other Friday off.

I also take days off in November and December and the week before school starts for the children in the Fall.
