Petty federal workers reveal their 'revenge' plot after Trump's executive order axes work from home
Daily Mail UK ^ | January 24, 2025 | Germania Rodriguez Poleo

Spiteful federal government workers have vowed to boycott struggling mom-and-pop businesses near their offices after Donald Trump banned remote working.

In a now-deleted Reddit post titled 'Boycott using local businesses around work site if forced back to office, several federal discussed how to fight back against Trump's order.

'For those that end up being forced back to their respective offices I would avoid patronizing the local businesses in those areas,' the original poster said.

'Bring your own lunch to avoid using the eateries and grocery stores, avoid parking in pay parking (use mass transit if available), and don't buy anything at the shops or has stations.'

It is unclear how these forms of 'protest' would in any way affect or impede the government bosses forcing the angry workers back into the office.

Meanwhile a worker at a DMV in DC named Katie said on TikTok that Trump's back to the office order has only made her and her colleagues less efficient.

She said: 'As a government employee, what's so ironic about all of this s**t going on with Trump making us go in person five days a week to promote efficiency....

'because of all of this we are yapping more at work, trying to digest everything that's going on, we cannot get any work done because of how much information intake that existing in this administration requires.'

Democratic DC mayor Muriel Bowser said she supported Trump's order because it would bring more people to the downtown economy; she has previously tied a decline in retail and office space revenue to a lack of federal workers in their offices

None of them has that much self-discipline.

The Republican Party is the party of workers and small business owners. The Democrat Party spits on such peasants.

Less efficient? Not sure that’s possible.

What’s funny to me is that all those businesses they are referring to are almost solely in democratic hell holes

“...we cannot get any work done because of how much information intake that existing in this administration requires.”

...and no one has noticed... maybe no one would notice if they were permanently let go.

I would guess 80% of them aren’t needed. So just stay home.

“Spoiled brats”

The party of the elitists are upset that they’re now going to have to (gasp!) work for a living like every day, hard-working , tax-paying American citizens. And speaking of tax-paying... I wonder how many of those federal employees now whining owe back taxes. Perhaps Trump’s IRS guys should take a closer look.

Uncooperative civil servants have the potential to cause a lot of chaos until they are dealt with.

Much bigger problem here in the UK. Part of the problem as to why the Tories were so useless is because they were hampered by Whitehall snivel serpents who were running a guerrilla warfare campaign against elected government ministers trying to enact policies they didn’t like, like being tougher on immigration.

I suspect that’s how they got Boris in the end, same with Priti Patel and Suella Braverman.

You guys need to gut the civil service and make sure it is never large enough to cause major problems for actual elected officials with the mandate of the voters ever again.

So do we.

* Forgot to mention Liz Truss. She was probably the biggest victim of Civil Service chicanery of all.

So you didn’t frequent the shops/restaurants when working at home but want to boycott going there if working back in the office. Yeah, that makes sense.

Dumb. This will do nothing to change condictions other than bankrupt their neighbors. Sorta like inner cities where looters destroy their local Walmart that closes down.
