“...disclosed by a person with knowledge of the situation who requested anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss it publicly.”
Sure, more un-sourced BS from the AP craphouse idiots.
I got mine this morning and I’m excited to complete my task on Monday morning! We were stopped from answering last time, but this time DHS said to go ahead and respond.
I was really bummed I couldn’t do it when the first one came out.
Probably the majority of Federal employees submit Weekly Activity Reports to their supervisors already, just not to some outside entity. I know I often did them when I worked at DOD. The idea that some people here have that Federal employees have no managerial or team lead oversight is kind of dumb. I am sure there are some hands off managers but not that many since they are directly responsible for their employees performance and managers are not too hard to discipline if their team is doing a poor job.
And that is the right way to do measures that will bring mass layoffs. Run them through the line of authority in each organization. Fire any managers or executives who will not implement the layoffs.
It is not a matter of "following procedures" in a bureaucracy. It is about preserving a functional organization after doing mass layoffs. It is the logic of power in large organizations. You see the same actions in large corporations that do mass layoffs, if the corporations survive them. Many do not survive them.
Presumably, some portion of the government needs to keep running after the 15% layoffs are completed.
The people who leave early do better than the people who leave later.
What have you done for us lately?
It must be terribly frightening to sit down to reply to that, and suddenly realize the job that supported you for years is of no value to the country.
Probaby the governments version of Grok.
They said they were using AI
When I worked for a defense contractor, I had to do daily time sheets, and each project I worked on had to be tied back to its AO number.
Can't think of a good reason why federal employees shouldn't have to do something similar.
