So, he thinks answering an email means I’m showing up to work? What about out of office replies? Also, there are other ways to send emails automatically without being at your desk…seems maybe he doesn’t understand how things actually function.

Now, the USPS is preparing to push back as Trump moves to dissolve its leadership and bring the independent agency under his administration’s control. America, this cannot be allowed—protecting the USPS is essential.
Please share this and call Congress.

FEMA folks, you aren’t alone. Hang in there. It’s a relay. Take rest if you need to, we can keep it up until you’ve had a chance to regroup.
