Summary
Vivek Ramaswamy, alongside Elon Musk, plans to push federal workers back to the office full-time, aiming to reduce telework and downsize bureaucracy.
Ramaswamy claims requiring in-office attendance could lead to a 25% reduction in federal staff.
Critics, including federal worker unions, argue many jobs, such as healthcare and law enforcement, don’t qualify for telework and warn the move may hurt recruitment and retention.
Meanwhile, costly underused federal office space has drawn attention, with many agencies utilizing only a fraction of their space.
no better way to eliminate bureaucracy than by making new rules that everybody has to follow
he said. “You don’t even have to talk about you’re in a mass firing, a mass exodus. Just tell them they have to come back five days a week from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m.”
Even with a 1 hour lunch, 8am to 6pm would be a 9 hour work day. So, bro is expecting folks to just accept a 45 hour workweek along with a complete return to office. Pretty sure he’s going to get his 25% reduction. It’s just going to be all of the most talented people saying “fuck that”.
Which is the project 2025 goal…
As always, this is just cover to force people to quit and not give severance. It’s a layoff without having to call it a layoff.
It’s not even a cover, it’s the stated intention. They want a reduction in staff.
25%, literally what they say they want.
Got to appease those shareholders and make the stock go up.
Wait…
I know I’d like to start seeing some dividends (UBI).
This is an entire section of Project 2025… Encourage/force career employees in the government to quit so you can replace them with unqualified Sycophants.
If only real estate had some form of value other than using it ourselves… Hmm
If only we knew of a candidate, perhaps even a president that knew about real estate renting and sales.
Nope let’s make people quit and replace them instead!
If you’re hinting that Trump knows his way around real estate: stop. Trump bankrupted casinos he is so bad with real estate. 6 bankruptcies means he was nothing but a failure.
Haha I know
Are there that many remote government jobs? I checked at the beginning of the Biden administration and all of them required me to be in the office and in *shudder* business casual
Let’s do congress first.
What a weirdo!!
Oh rama-lama-ding-dong at it again I see.
