Good. Do it. The government ain’t doing shit for people who actually need help anyways.
I’m in one of those, fucked either way cases. If the government doesn’t shut down, I lose my healthcare, if it does shut down I potentially lose my job since I work for the government.
Hey! A fellow gov worker! So, how’s the last 6 months been stress shitting your guts out and expecting to be fired every day? Because I’m sure as fuck not having a good time and want off this god damned ride.
Funnily enough, I was a government worker shortly before Trump took over. The highlights included gaslighting me on my rights as a worker, telling me not to rock the boat, then shitcanning me when I filed grievances with my union. The very same union that refused to go to bat for me because “arbitrations are expensive”.
Also having my eyes opened to the absolutely ludicrous waste generated by government operations. I saw brand new 24 inch computer monitors still sealed in the box thrown in the trash, but I was simply told “there is no government waste” when I asked what was going on. Seeing a forklift bought for a single job before being “scrapped” was also wild.
Honestly, do yourself a big favor and look for a transfer to private sector. I’ve got a union that actually listens to me now and better benefits than a fed. Couldn’t be happier.
Oh trust me I’ve been working on it. I’m not at all surprised by your story, I knew the DOGE shit was complete bs.
The worst part is I’m fairly new, I accepted the job offer before the election and started it after the election. The hope day I accepted the job offer and the dread of starting first day was quite disparate.
Sorry you’re in that position. I can’t believe this is where were at. Who non millionaire could possibly be on the presidents side on this one?
