At least DOJ has been gutted so I doubt they’ll have the cream of the crop defending the suit.I’ll be shocked if the courts don’t find in favor of the employees.

can we take the money that is going to be used in all the litigation and payouts directly out of Trump’s executive budget and elons company contracts?I’m not so sure that anything involving signing this “contract” is black and white. One could argue they signed under duress, and I have a feeling this will be tied up in court until the cows come home.
I’ve seen it all my life in private industry. Have a SO who deals with it and several friends that have left unions or union jobs entirely because of the cronyism….. I could go on and on, but it is beside the point of this thread.Please share your experiences with this.
Several million dollars of grain involved now reneged on..You know that 3 astronauts died on an Apollo 1 test flight, right?
But yeah, let the PISSED American taxpayer get in this vehicle and light the candle.
I figure it will take 10-15 days for the phone calls to move through the political apparatus. Already calls from Farmers to reaching Congress complaining that USAID bought their goods and they have some questions. I'm sure they will be compensated, again, and you all will never hear about it because you choose not to.
That's interesting, I've seen quite the opposite on the private side. No experience with public sector. I've never seen a single person leave for a non union position. I've seen an awful lot of them go the other way though. Never seen the union protect anyone who is a lazy slob either. I have seen them defend the rights of all workers the same for all of them. Cronsyism is alive and well everywhere. For example friends or family of business owners or business associates etc etc. Unions I'm engaged with are all looking to get the best pay and benefits they can for there members, you don't get that by supporting the non productive workers, you get that by promoting the hardest working and most skilled members.

Do what we did...insure you have a good hedge position in bonds.In past 30 days, Federal employee headcount down, price of eggs up, war still going. A fine start to my retirement. A bit of chaos is just what my doc ordered.
That was my thought to my knowledge only email responses opting in have really occurred at this point.No one has signed the contract. They haven’t come out yet.
I am concerned about what this means for our public lands and the often very dedicated people who protect and maintain them, but have definitely been reflecting on the past 27 years of western hunting on national forest and BLM land and the fact that other than in a visitor center or headquarters, I have had low single-digits of personal interactions IN TOTAL with any FS or BLM employee in the field, and never with any that are away from a vehicle.I took a lap around the rocky mountains last sept. From the great plains, to CO westslope, up through the parks, to MT, and back to the great plains.
I drove by a lot of FS camp grounds. Almost everyone had the gates closed, and signs up:
"Campground Closed"
I thought that odd during hunting season.
Well, maybe you should work for the .gov and try to negotiate that.I know. That’s my point.
Blaming this on Unions is nonsense.
WTF?Has the union considered going on strike?
Try reading the letter, and no they're not.lol so you can’t even strike?!
Federal unions are super dumb.
Try reading the letter, and no they're not.
You continue to show your ignorance, no shock.
You should try some comprehension...I liked that letter.
“All Government employees should realize that the process of collective bargaining, as usually understood, cannot be transplanted into the public service.”
So they can’t strike and can’t protect the most vulnerable employees. What purpose do they serve?
There isn't a union on the planet that can protect probationary period employees unless they are let go for EEOC and can prove it. Which I did successfully and is very rare.Unable to strike + unable to protect the most vulnerable employees= low leverage.
Turkeys at Thanksgiving mostly at my first Federal job. Occasionally they would have to advocate for someone who was getting a raw deal. Funny thing was most of the supervisors were former union reps and were mostly responsible for handing out the raw deals. At my second one, we barely heard a peep from them, other than to tell us they agreed with firing employees who didn't get the clot shot. So, other than the in boarding spiel, I really never talked to the union.I liked that letter.
