28% of federal employees may quit their jobs when Trump assumes office: Poll
Washington Times ^ | 1/19/17 | Jennifer Harper

Posted on 01/19/2017 1:16:24 PM PST by markomalley

Almost two-thirds of federal employees voted for Hillary Clinton during the presidential election, according to a new survey.

The poll also found that six of 10 felt that the election itself gave Americans a negative impression of federal service.

So it may come as no surprise that some federal employees are considering leaving their employment when President-elect Donald Trump assumes office.

“More than one in four federal workers, or 28 percent, will definitely or possibly consider leaving their jobs after Jan. 20 when Trump is sworn into office and becomes leader of the executive branch,” according to the survey conducted by the Government Business Council and Government Executive, which both track the trends of the field.

Half said that Mr. Trump’s business experience would “hinder his management of the federal government” while almost two thirds believe that his business relationships pose a conflict of interest. Both points are also popular narratives within the Democratic Party as well.

No possible way we could be that lucky.

That would be one of the great moments in American history.

I agree. They are not going anywhere unless they are given pink slips.

Idle threat! On the other hand, Trump won't have to cut the workforce by 10% if these folks leave.

Adios!

Doubtful.

What a blessing it would be, though. We know the types that would be quitting.

Yup but just hope some of them don’t know or forget that but most civil servants know the benefit terms better than the labor lawyers. They may not know their job or do it well but they know all the angles.

Trump needs to send out an order to fire each and every federal democrat - high and mid-level bureaucrat - and all contractors who supported the democrat party. Any party or person who espouses, enables or empowers abortion on demand, homosexual behavior and lawlessness is evil.

The democrat party needs to be eradicated from the face of the earth. For decades, the democrat party has been playing hardball while republicans play softball. If republicans have any interest in disposing with the democrat party it will require a scorched earth 'political' mindset in the order of U.S. Grant and Techemsuh Sherman. Democrats no longer have any pretense in their goal to destroy American Christians and Conservatives. They are overt. I suggest Christians and Conservatives respond in-kind.

Save your, WWJD response to my comments. The Allies responded to its enemies rightly. Israel responds rightly to those who would destroy her. Fighting for the unconditional surrender and destruction of the democrat party is the right position (no pun intended) for Christians and Conservatives.

RINOs and republican compromisers are useful idiots who unwittingly or overtly serve the democrat party. They need to be primaried out of the party. There is a time for all things. It's time to destroy the enemy's ability to wage war. It's time to take out the democrat party and all its tools - every way we can.

And then they’re moving to Canada. Sure they will. Promises promises.

They’ll stay until they’re RIF’ed, then walk to the parking lot in tears carrying their bankers box of stolen pens, Beanie Babies, photos of Obama, Clinton and other misc. desk BS.

You will have to pick them up literally and throw them out to get rid of any of them; don’t let them fool you.

And their `Best of Kids Gone Wild II’ porn collection burned to disk while they surfed at work.

Why do they make these empty threats? Everyone knows it’s BS.

In any event, more BEE (best election ever) from my hero Donald Trump, who is frightening the comfortable fedofficedrones with attrition butthurt and comforting America’s productive class after 8 years of Obama misery.
