Always the optimist, another headline could be:

“Thousands of struggling businesses in and around DC look forward to serving the returning workers who still want to work.”

The sailors come off the ship in On the Town (1949) with Frank Sinatra and Gene Kelly.

Oh no! Federal employees will be forced to work for their pay? How inhuman.

Wonder what happens to the real estate market. Might just be quite a few unexpected sales when the frauds get taken off the payroll.

Lol.

Increase in population from those workers will have an economic effect.

Like Foster Brooks said in a roast to Sammy Davis, Jr.:
“Whenever you come to town here a lot of people make a lot more money. And I really believe those women deserve it. They work hard.”

Commuted to the Navy Yard for 37 years. Your time in Purgatory is shortened for persevering I-395. Remember, 98% of life is just showing up.

Depends on the department. Many are forced to work at home just beginning in January. So……

How did they get to work everyday before the scamdemic?????

In the army in Kansas in the 80s, my Sargent said in a blizzard, “IDC if you have to crawl on your tongue! Get your azz to work!!”

Shouldn’t they commute on ships?

Seriously though why does the Navy have to have 1000s of employees in DC? Move them to another port city.
