My advise to everyone in the federal government

Yep. Anyone with a brain and even the tiniest bit of heart (even I kinda felt bad letting people go…for a few seconds) can see it. It’s being done in a careless and care-less way and the chickens will come to roost at some point. But we’ve got our mouthbreathers out in force jealously cheering on their team under the guise of a “I lost my job once, what makes you special?!” mantra. It’s small, petty, ill conceived and completely incongruent with the bigger picture objectives. Basically, exactly what you’d expect from a band of idiots. So in that sense, it makes perfect sense.
and you'd think shared experience would lend itself to some organic empathy, instead we're seeing the just-world fallacy and down right joy in other's misery. And what makes it even more disgusting is many of those same people are touting Christian principles.

I’m an absolutely positive these cuts will get rid of quite a few deadbeats. I’m also absolutely positive that these cuts will get rid of committed public employees who were providing real value.

The problem is, they’re not taking the time to find out. They have no idea.

If you took over a mid-sized business I doubt you’d take the chainsaw approach.

That "mid sized" business, is the largest employer in the nation fwiw.

Well said. I appreciate someone as enlightened as me on HORT.
 
Often I have read on this site that government workers could easily find hired paying jobs in private sector but stay.

I guess some will but a lot more won’t.

One thing we have all learned. A president can cut spending damn quick.

Raising and lowering taxes, takes time and Congress.
 
Over the years I’ve probably laid off more people than exist in the nearest small BFIoway town near you. It’s a fact of life / work and I don’t have any problem with it happening in the federal government. How they’re going about it though is reckless, ill conceived, trashy, and petty. So…yeah, exactly what you’d expect from the band of idiots that was voted in by a band of idiots.
What an odd attempt at a flex.
Interestingly enough, his libtard friends get all pissy when Trump lays people off and say he’s the one that’s the issue.
Not that we didn’t already know this, but I’m guessing you have to lay people off because they can’t stand working with you in the first place.

If you notice, he went from "I've fired a small towns worth of people, you gotta do what you gotta do" to "they are heartless"

I like 97 though, but he lacks a proper post to tit ratio.

I'm sure there were good people who got let go here also:

Eh, he’s whatever. Can’t say I’ve really put much into anything he says. Like you just pointed out, he’s a flip flopper and doesn’t know what to say half the time.
Plus, now that I’ve commented on a post of his, he’ll make some religion bashing post because that’s what he does. Yet he wants us to care for government employees even though he doesn’t care about anyone that’s been laid off in the past.
 
So maybe where pruning shears are needed for that "mid size business" as is common in every business transition, this growth needed the proverbial chain saw.
You’re making my point.

Some are apparently ok with the chainsaw, consequences be damned. All federal employees are slackers or up to no good. Any cut to the federal government is good.

I don’t see it that way.

I don't see it that way either. I agree there will be waste with this but drastic measures were needed and nothing was going to actually happen if we maintained status quo on going through the bureaucracy.
 
isn't or wasn't 60 minutes/CBS news being sued for airing an edited interview with Kamala Harris where she gave such terrible answers to the questions they cut up and created new answers from other questions they asked?

But your concern is their report?
They released the unedited interview a month or so back. Look it up, you’ll feel foolish afterwards.
And that is the crux of situation. It's not the what, it's the how and the how is being performed badly and it's a YUGE deal.
Exactly.

IMO, they’re clearly doing it this way because it lets them 1) sell the narrative of how quickly they mowing down govt waste and 2) it further adds to the narrative that government waste/corruption is rampant.

There’s at least a dozen different ways they could have done this better. All of which include having qualified individuals conduct the audit.

I am not sure there's anyone Trump could have tasked that would have been accepted. I've asked who would be an acceptable person to do it, and all I get are laugh emojis

You can both fire and be civilized as my follow up in post #38 says. Canning people in the public sector is a way of life. I stated before I have no problem with it being one in the public sector. You don't have to be a vindictive dick about it though. Even my black as black heart didn't tell my Trad to send out emails basically mocking people before I showed them the door.

That said, the majority point of my input on this thread is the reckless nature in which they're doing it. They have and will contine to phuck up - because they're doing it with minimal rhyme or reason and only for their own egos and red meat to their mouthbreathers. If one doesn't see it for what it is, that's on them.

You try so hard. It's cute.

I laid people off to maximize shareholder value. In your position, you'd never understand how it all works.

And nobody was willing to do any of them.

Trumps an asshole but it’s pretty clear anybody can cut government spending without a bunch of committees research and more jobs to get rid of other jobs.

Dems can get in. Do their own targeted cuts and increase taxes and maybe the debt boat will get turned around.

But I doubt it.
 
Between @LunchBox50's hitman rants and the recent arnold palmer connections, he's hands down got my favorite schtick going on HROT right now!
Doesn’t surprise me you are intrigued by a poster who is obsessed with making posts about male genitalia.

Shouldn’t you be maximizing shareholder value this morning? You’re the CFO and on the BOD correct? lol.
