“They wanted to show they were gutting the government, but there was no thought about what parts might be worth keeping,” said one FDA staffer who was fired and rehired. “Now it feels like it was all just a game to them.”

I know people in charge of staffing various departments at various military bases, and they have hundreds of open positions they can’t fill because the people who took the buyout are still technically in those positions.
So they’re double fucked. These are critical positions like medical and mechanical.
Even after DRP, we get the spots back at a 4:1 ratio…
So if 12 took it, 3 can be hired
yeah, it’s a pretty shitty deal all around for the people trying to keep shit functioning.
On a long enough timeline this is just a speed bump
No matter what trump tries, he won’t match the number of separations under Clinton, and we won’t end up with a lower number after
They’re both pretty much the same, coincidentally enough we had just gotten back up to pre-Clinton number of feds, so the comparison is easy.
But because a Republican did it instead of a Dem, we’re likely to bounce back much faster this time.
Think about all the money the government is saving, though.
