He thinks it’s a great deal. I don’t know what to think (I’m not a fed and I’m much younger than him so nowhere near retirement)
Any thoughts?
Looks good to know. I know a few folks that are going to take it.

Ridiculous take. Thanks for nothing.
The same title as the twitter buyout memo? Everyone could easily find out that the twitter employees who took the buyout never got paid.

Because the emotionally stunted tech bros think they are the absolute smartest people EVER and no one would ever be able to do a hint of due diligence and find out that they are actually full of s***.

Tech and finance bros behind OPM looking like it is run by a bunch of monkeys:
Amanda Scales (OPM Chief of Staff)
Brian Bjelde (HR Exec from SpaceX)
Riccardo Biasini (Exec from Boring Co)
Anthony Armstrong (Exec from Morgan Stanley)
Steve Davis (DOGE and on detail to GSA)
Baris Akis (Turkish-born Silicon Valley exec who graduated from Stanford in 2016)
Thomas Shedd (Tesla software engineer, Director of Technology Transformation Services at GSA)
Edward Coristine (19 years old)
Very impressive, and refreshing we need the best and brightest genz in the government
Hate to break it to you, but the Tide pod eating generation with a lifetime of TikTok brain comes off as being as intelligent as you expect they would. They're writing emails that read as if they had a steady diet of lead paint chips as kids.
