The president of NFFE and the UAW need to have a word with him. He is not within in rights.

Even SGE’s are subject to the Hatch act. He is already breaking that. Next up, the emoluments clause Send him to jail, or deport him. I don’t care which, but do one! www.law.cornell.edu/cfr/text/5/2...

Sorry to be more of a bummer, For a lot of federal workers it is one more day they have a job… till tomorrow. Go check on any federal employee friends. It’s real bad out here. Our forest, Chequamegon-Nicolet in northern Wisconsin is seeing around a 20-25% reduction.

He isn’t respecting court orders & injunctions.There is actual law that says the agencies are supposed to create telework guidelines and it lays a groundwork for those guideline. He can’t just revoke the law passed in Congress and senate. Bargaining unit employees striking would be a start.

When do we call for a strike fro all USFS employees?

Oh that sucks big time. My wife has the same problem. She hates long car drives over 6 hrs. Can’t sleep, gets antsy and uncomfortable. I am the 5’8” and have been cramped in cars since I was little.

Does Jet lag and being cramped on a plane got you hating it? The jet leg there is terrible for me even when I sleep on the plane. I mostly hate American east coast airports. They are freaking dirty and crowded.

There are a number of spelling and grammatical errors that make this difficult to read

Hemlock Forest do the same in my neck of the woods. I take a deep breath every time I see them and always pause if I am walking under them.

Do we get to vote for the board members? Everything needs to stay above board and ethical. However we keep the shady dealings of the UAW of the 60 & 70’s away the better

Wow, love hearing this from you. They already have a good start with union members, but I wonder how it would work to open up enrollment to the public.

If he would have left his hand on his heart, sure, but he didn’t. He had to let his inner nazi out.

The only people at work I hear talking about taking the “buyout” are conservative leaning folks. BUT everyone has a pension accumulated to worry about. It’s a way bigger deal to lose that than anyone is talking about.
comment in response to post
Bow tie wearing mfer thinks he is all that. His smug posture and leaning back at the end of his comment is all the communication one needs to see to know he doesn’t respect the person he is talking to. He needs to get a life outside of politics.

The letter also states they want the best and brightest but the minute higher pay is brought up to recruit the best and brightest they get real quiet.

He isn’t just killing the federal government, he is eliminating thousands of jobs in rural a communities that desperately need the income the federal positions provide.

I got a surly skidloader three years ago. With panniers, fenders and studded tires for the winter it is awesome. I live in a hilly town and commuted for 2.5 yrs with it. Now ride it first anywhere I go, except work, so I can bring things and meet people farther away than I would normally on a bike.

We are forced into buying these “solutions” because of planned obsolescence when it comes to material things.

Midwesterner? Sounds like he is.

who are they owned by? seems like an oil company is telling them what to write.

I used to plant a row of beans outside my garden, like on the other side of the yard so rabbits, chipmunks and mice would have something else to eat. It worked for a bit and I ate what they didn’t get.
