Environmental Protection Agency employees have not accepted Donald Trumps victory and are still coming to work in tears more than two months after the election.
At EPA headquarters, the mood remains dark, ProPublica reported Wednesday. A longtime career communications employee said in a phone interview Tuesday that more than a few friends were coming to work in tears each morning as they grappled with balancing the practical need to keep their jobs with their concerns for the issues they work on.
Trumps victory has been tough for bureaucrats. The State Department held stress workshops after the election so they would not become paralyzed by fear. EPA employees were caught crying before, just after the election, as were White House aides. Energy Department employees were granted counseling. Sobbing staffers greeted Hillary Clinton on Capitol Hill a month after her loss.

My joke didn't go over too well in my office, either.
I was overheard saying to a coworker about an hour after the inauguration that RIF (reduction in force) notices were sent out 10 minutes after President Trump took the oath of office.
We've got our share of snowflakes here, too.

Good. All bureaucrats ever do is to issue mounds of regulations to justify their existance.

The EPA did do a good job cleaning up the air. But the job is done so now go away.

If they quit, they could have some bonding time with their families, pursue hobbies. As you mentioned, travel/relocate to somewhere that will appreciate their input on climate change regulations.

But but but... isn’t it the place of Government to make all its employees feel special all the time?
To: bkopto
Brings a huge smile to my face. The EPA is on the way to oblivion, where it belongs. Recently they ruled that puddles and seasonal streams are now under their control. Malignant maniacs.

Crying over maybe getting criminally charged for going along to get along?
So many guilty consciences; so many unqualified for productive employment.
