Shockingly, it may not be advisable to disrupt a large number of people and their ability to live. This may result in a large number of people unable to locate equivalent employment/compensation. Then you have a base of people with idle time, resentment for the administration, and nothing left to lose.
SGEs are forbidden from this kind of conflict of interest. Wonder how they will spin this.
Ah fuck. This one is going to hit a kind person I know.
Several of my own coworkers :/ We’ve got less than a month till shutdown/furlough deadline too, its so fucked.
People smarter, more productive, and more important than me, are going to lose their jobs for the sole fact that I have been employed for 3+ years as a fed, and they haven’t.
And many of them will seek employment elsewhere in the world, and that knowledge will be lost to us forever. Good stuff.
