First I’ve heard of this 40K buyout. I’d take it as well. Plenty of tech firms here, many with great telework policies.
My spouse has been praying for a early retirement package from the USPS. Despite what many believe here on FR, many federal employees are being worked to death. Doing many jobs within a job and working their butts off. I know this from experience, 6 days on, Sunday off and 2 Mondays off monthly. I feel like a golf widow. This has been going on for more then 3 years, almost 4.
