Lets see here; Bureau of Land Management lost 87 employees, all that top expertise who probably wouldn’t know a cow from an elk, a dog from a wolf, and a chicken from a chukar partridge.
So sad-to bad. The only thing those desk jockey bureaucrats knew how to do was write STUPID RULES and suck off the tax payers teat.

Cry me a river. During my 22 years of active duty. I had a dozen different duty stations, and my children attended nearly that many different schools. I survived, and the kids all did well in college: 2 Masters degrees and one Ph.D. Lots of people move to follow jobs.

In the era of computers, the internet and telephony, there is no reason for most government bureaus to be headquartered in DC and every reason for them to be decentralized so as to make a decapitation strike by our enemies unprofitable.

I should look on a map, but I don’t recall a lot of government land they control on the East Coast. Nevada, on the other hand, is practically all government land. Put them all outside of Las Vegas, about 100 miles NW. They can exercise their great brains there.

As a corporate brat and spouse, you go where the boss tells you to go if you want a job. Moving sucks, but it has kept a roof over our heads. Finally retired after living in 12 states. And Virginia was a 3 time repeat.
The non-movers are true swamp dwellers.

Now expand this highly successful program to every agency in DC and see if we can get even more heading for the exits. I realize we don’t want to do it all at once, but what’s the downside if we do?

But what are the 10,000 employees that don’t work in DC doing and where are they doing it? “The BLM move would uproot nearly all of the agencys dwindling Washington staff out West, leaving just 61 of 10,000 employees in the nations capital.”
And it seems only 169 positions out of 240 are being moved from DC. Oh, woe are them.

There should be no need to hire more people. Why would it take more than 80 people to run the BLM? What the heck do these (previously Washington DC bureaucrats) do all day?

What a brilliant way to cut the size of the agency.
Lets move more agencies outside Washington.

"This is a huge brain drain,..." A classic example of an "oxymoron"...
federal employees...brains...
This socalled huge brain drain is more like an Exlax-induced toilet flush...
With 80 gone, the 60 who transfered will have to increase their workload to a blistering 60-to-70 minutes a day...
Porn advertising will suffer... Assorted little private companies being operated out of federal properties will suffer...
Taxpayers will not notice...

Half of those east coast DC cubicle roaches would fall off a cliff or get rattlesnake bit out west. It’s nature’s way.

I would think a decapitation strike by our enemies of certain government agencies headquartered in DC would be VERY profitabe... to the U.S.A.
Almost as profitable as President Trump doing the decapitating.
