I work as an RN for Veterans Affairs, and I can say that this is a step in the right direction.
Next, I hope they streamline the department and get rid of worthless positions that do nothing but sponge off the budget.
And, I really hope that they can start pressuring the worthless unions to start making reform. I know of several employees that call in weekly, do not have FMLA, and yet management is forbidden to terminate due to the union. It’s complete BS, and pretty much only tolerated in Federal government. I love my job, and take pride in caring for veterans, and appreciate my pay/benefits, but it literally takes an act of murder to get fired from the Fed govt.
“It’s complete BS”
It’s a real shame that these people get away with it..these are our vets...we owe them employees that will do the job right and make their lives better.
That is what I fear. Businessman Trump thinks he is going to be able to fire governmental employees but it is not so simple.
I hope he masterminds a solution to the Union problem. The people who are still employed by the VA after their scandalous behavior is shocking.
I get my medical care through my local VA here in Wisconsin. The care I have gotten to date has been nothing less than professional and top-notch.
You. People. ROCK!
THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! :)
Thank you. My son deals with the V.A. on a regular basis and is dumbstruck by the common attitude of disrespect toward veterans in even common interactions.
I know the union has made it impossible for many of the good people at the V.A. to accomplish their tasks. The red tape is mindboggling. The frustration level of my son and thousands like him is horrible to see and they are powerless.

What does it take to get the proper medication for pain?
