"If you respond, you can continue to WFH and will get full pay and benefits until September, when you will be let go."
The presumption is if you don't respond you need to come into the office asap or be fired?
Stay. Fight the good fight
1.Starve federal agencies from the inside out with shortages and inability to function.
2. Allow for contract workers, consultants, and part-time workers. No benefits, no retirement plan, no unions.
3. Create a situation where project 2025 folks can control what happens..
He's committing a crime and anyone foolish enough to accept his promise will be screwed.

Does that help?
Check out how that worked out. He refused to follow their severance agreement & cheated Twitter employees out of agreed on pay & benefits.

Nobody should do anything without serious legal advice.
WE pay for their fascist gov. Win win for them. Lose lose for us. Trumpian all the way.
I don’t even know what to say. This is bizarre.

look at them like teachers and healthcare workers, it's bad they're bailing but I get it. Wanting to make a difference and help others only supports you through a finite amount of BS.

There’s no buy-out, and no promise that you wouldn’t be expected to work until 9/30 — you just don’t have to go to the office.
He THINKS that's how it'll work with government employees.
A white South African arrives stage left, waggles hands "The Tech Bros!"
Trump is aiming to ax nearly 2 million workers with his 8 month extortion buyout.
You don't have to even do the math to know what a $$ gouge that is.
But guarantee Mike Johnson will get the House to raise the cap.
So no need for new appropriations. Probably easier to follow through than not, but when has anything sensible bounded the fascist grifter
HE LIES. He promises shit that he has NO INTENTION of ever delivering on. He's done it for DECADES.
Jesus FUCKING Christ, people, HOW MANY TIMES do we have to go through this? NEVER believe what he says.

In other works, working.
I'd predict that anyone who took this offer would be paid only until the current continuing resolution expires on March 14.
"I am committed to ensuring a smooth transition during my remaining time at my employing agency. Accordingly, I will assist my employing agency with completing reasonable and customary tasks and processes to facilitate my departure."
It's double worded to screw over the person agreeing to it.
