U.S. EPA employees were in tears. Worried Energy Department staffers were offered counseling. Some federal employees were so depressed, they took time off. Others might retire early.
And some employees are in downright panic mode in the aftermath of Donald Trump's victory.
"People are upset. Some people took the day off because they were depressed," said John O'Grady, president of American Federation of Government Employees Council 238, a union that represents thousands of EPA employees. After Election Day, "people were crying," added O'Grady, who works in EPA's Region 5 office in Chicago. "They were recommending that people take sick leave and go home."

Fire. Them. All.
Good, you useless and malignant losers. All these faceless bureaucratic degenerates do is harass normal Citizens and their businesses. That these government “workers” have a job is an abomination. They are overpaid, get too much leave and holiday, do nothing productive and retire with cushy pay. The He** with them and their kind. They are parasites feeding on productive Citizens (to whom they condescend and despise). I laugh at their “tears” and hope the worst for them all.
Overpopulated federal agency workers might not want to use up all their vacation and sick leave just yet. They may need the money while job hunting after RIF occurs.
Their tears are delicious.

These same feds shed no tears when excessive regulations cost other people their jobs. Tears for me but not for thee.
Maybe these fed emps can now sympathize with the miners who were thrown over by Hilda and O insect. Maybe they can think about all the others whose jobs were whisked away overseas.
The Enrichment Program for Attorneys may lose employees.... Many lawyers also on suicide watch.
I am loving this Trump effect!
The problem I see is that an EPA guy has a worthless degree and experience. A lot of these EPA folks in DC are GS-13/14 types and making $100,000 a year. There’s zero potential trying to stay in DC so they will be throwing houses in Virginia and Maryland up on the market rather quickly (wouldn’t surprise me if you see some houses marketed by Thanksgiving).
With 15,000 employees....if Trump just told them to lay off 1,000 employees by 1 Oct 2017....they could probably do it. At least the IT folks and clerks could find other work in DC.
So the answer is to take a day off work to show how useless you are
That’s how to get Virginia back in the red column. Eliminate the support for all those lefty fed employees in northern Virginia.

Canada has offered to take all of you snowflakes in...
Oh, wait a minute...no they haven’t. Canada specifically stated THEY DON’T WANT YOU EITHER!
Can you say downsize? I knew that you could.
Trump must cut thousands of useless Fedzilla jobs that are harming the economy and causing the federal debt to balloon.
Keep in mind where this is. I doubt all civil servants are wilting... Johnson Space Center, for example.
The EPA and Department of Energy should both be completely defunded. Both are drags on the economy.
Drain the swamp, fire these lazy POS and send them packing. ENOUGH IS ENOUGH
They took their “day off” and I bet they did their “mourning” at the local shopping mall or bar.
Interesting comment that they’ve “been through” Reagan and they “got through” Bush. Everything seems to have been just peachy under GHWB, clinton and obama. I wonder why that might have been.
