On, boo-hoo. I’m tired of hearing about Federal workers losing their jobs. It happens in private industry all the time but CNN doesn’t interview them. I guess it’s different when they are sucking in taxpayer dollars.
She does not have the intelligence to reply to Elon in her own words. She was hired because of who/what she is rather than her intelligence or ability to do the job she was hired to do.
She could do that while getting a pedicure.
I remember those days. I graduated from high school in 1965, and went to work for the county Department of Child Welfare as a clerk. There were 10 of us who worked in the same office. We had a Supervisor too. We were all woman. The supervisor made sure that every person knew all the other jobs in the office. That way if someone was absent or on vacation, we could all do each other's jobs with no interruption to the flow of work and documents preparation that was required on a daily basis.
I can't recall how many times I was actually pulled out of a meeting by a manager to work on something immediately.
And this person is crying about having ONLY 48 hours to write an email?
-PJ
I had to do this in my job, before I retired. We had to make a list of how much time we spent on which duties. It usually happened when a reorganization was going on.
No problem, no big deal.
Unreal.
At any point in my life from 1st grade I could have easily managed that task.
If she is serious that is truly sad, and a total waste of any money paid to her.
Good grief! 48 hours to produce a 5-bullet email is more pressure than this “employee” can handle?
Personally, I liked the university. They gave us money and facilities, we didn't have to produce anything! You've never been out of college! You don't know what it's like out there! I've *worked* in the private sector. They expect *results*.
If you never had to write a report on your work in your career, you don't have the skill set that a first-year employee in the private sector learns from their mentors.
Ah, yes. Mentors. You know, those people who teach you how to survive. A skill set career government managers lack.
Which points up the root cause for ineffective government workers: ineffective government management in the civilian branches. Managements whose departments can pass audits easily -- not.
If these federal employees are too lazy to list five things they did all week, they are too lazy to have a federal job. Have they figured out how little they need to do to do their job? Are they actually doing their job?
I would be wary of working in the same room as these people. They are making me think they are too lazy to keep up with their personal hygiene. Who wants to work around people who refuse to wash up after a restroom call or take a shower? What else don’t they do? I can imagine ALL their stink!!!
Back in the day you would have just faxed them the pages from your Franklin planner Journal that pertain to the dates they wanted. I don’t see the big deal unless they were shirking their duties.
But then again..m I used to work in a building with a government employees who worked from 5:00am to 1:00pm in the afternoon and then they went home to beat the traffic. One day I went in at 5:00am and they were all down in that freaking cafeteria having a coffee klatch until 8:00 but they still left at 1:00... that’s govt employees for ya!
Per photo not only federal employees need to be asked that question.
