Trump fires thousands for "performance" without any evidence in error plagued firing frenzy.

[Seymour Flops]

On the bright side the wife talked to one of her old FEMA co-workers....They have to go in every day now.....After better than four years of remote work.

I have to wonder, what in the world could so many people have been doing for FEMA sitting at their houses? I mean I get there’s always some clerical work to be done but the whole force? Who is maintaining equipment, training people to be responders, etc., etc.?

I know that’s not a question you’re supposed to answer. I’m sure they’re all eager to be at work now and look busy to avoid getting sacked. Even with having to show up for work every day, those are far better jobs than most of the taxpayers who pony up for them have.

I'm speculating, not projecting.

DERP

Projecting, speculating; 6 of 1, 1/2 dozen of the other, either way, you are still an a**hole-)

Homeland Security is next on the list to be slashed.

I wonder who is sharpening their knives in the Middle East today.

As long as Trump & his crime family can line their pockets kissing Saudi ass, they don't give a shit who's sharpening knives as long as their entitled sheltered asses are protected.

We've been down this road before with those self dealing sons of bitches.

 

[Clipper]

Why are you bringing up Biden? Did he slash jobs in this agency?

Are you confused?

No, Biden still lives rent free in their heads & they have to somehow justify reelecting a ruthless, self dealing conman as POTUS.

Trump could be caught molesting a five year old on video & they'd still defend him & blame the kid. No doubt about it.

National Parks are going to be trashed this summer, I wonder how many Fish and Game have been terminated? Both were understaffed already, especially the Forest Service.

They do not care

 

[Lesh]

Stop your crap. You're just flapping and yapping knowing full well you're powerless. It's annoying and you're not an influencer

One day you’ll post something worthwhile.

Today is not that day

At least the ones in the wife's old department (finance, mostly recoups and billing) have at least some transferrable skills.

One that retired moved right into the medical billing field, works from home, and makes good money.

This is a mere delusion as to what the function of the workers are.
The nature of clerical work no longer involves opening letters, or putting things into filing cabinets.
Letters have given way to emails, and filing cabinets have given way to databases.
Do you think the people at Google, or Microsoft, or Facebook, need to go to the office, to sit in front of a computer?

 

[Deplorable Yankee]

Bet you she did absolutely nothing
Just collected a check and bennies

No, dumbass. They are two completely different things.

Why are tRumplings so damn dumb?

 

[JWBooth]

That would work really well, they would all become playgrounds for the wealthy, considering the $250 entrance fee (per day).

This is exactly the reason we pay taxes, but now this money will somehow end up in the hands of those who least need it,

I paid taxes for the CVN 73, nobody’s giving me a pass to wander around as a tourist.

You got it wrong, MG. I mentioned clerical work as something that can reasonbly be done at home. Still not the most effecient, but in an emergency, it can be done.

Here is how FEMA depicts its employees on its website.

They don't show any of them sitting on their porches with an open laptop next to them and a longneck in their hand.

Its ok. You won't have FEMA soon.

Good riddance to the unneeded middle man.

They do not staff the National Parks. Have a nice day!

Trump is relying on hand picked Federal judges and a servile majority in the Supreme Court.


Firing employees en masse with the same claim of poor performance is illegal, said Jim Eisenmann, a partner at the Alden Law Group, a law firm specializing in litigation by federal employees. It violates federal law covering career civil service employees, he said.

“It can’t be true,” Eisenmann said. “They’re clearly not articulating this on an individual basis, which is what makes it so suspect.”

Probationary employees can be fired for no reason whatsoever. I was fired by the federal government when my math teacher position was eliminated and replaced by another teacher who taught Japanese as a language course. Budget considerations suck when you are a probationary employee. Did it to me in 2007.

I guess you never heard of contractors? I did recruiting for the Army as a civilian contractor. The parks could do the same by contracting out the operation and maintenance.

I never said they did. Have a great evening!

Yea, that would work out just as I predicted, $250 a day, because someone has got to make a profit.

Your tax dollars would be better spent on government contracts for SpaceX.

Dolt.

If you lay off people who don't work for the National Parks, how does that affect them? Dumbass!
