Going to the office, not back to the office. Had telework, then Covid came and we couldn’t go back then we were supposed toto go back once a quarter. Pre Covid my mom could drive. Now she’s legally blind, insists on living alone. Twice when she’s had an emergency she won’t call 911, she waits for me to get there. Working remote, I’m closer to her. My main concern is being further from her. Our agency has Microsoft office which tracks all we do. Plus Amazon for phones. Our agency has the stats that we do work but now, traffic will increase a lot when we go to FT in the office. It’s going to be interesting. Also because of my mom, I avoid most crowds. When I pick up her groceries I don’t go into the store unless I have to. The time not commuting gave me more time to see her after work and check in on her. Ready or not, here I go.

Termination of probationary employees runs tantamount to the hundreds of Keystone Pipeline employees by the Demented Biden Admenstruation who in callous manner told them to get an Uber job or go to McDonald’s….that did not get much coverage by the Soros influenced news media.

I am a retired VA R.N. and the position I was hired for was onsite clinic primary care case management. Throughout my 21 year VA career not only was I detailed to provide telework coverage when there were nurse staffing shortages in the patient call center, I was detailed for 3 months to provide R.N. coverage at another VA clinic that was 20 miles further from my home than the VA clinic I was hired to work at. I sought counsel from the R.N. union rep regarding the latter detail, and there was nothing that could be done because this was a primary care management decision and me being at the time the low nurse on the seniority totem pole I had no choice but to accept this detail or be terminated. Additionally, over the years I have witnessed coworkers from many departments have their positions eliminated, and if they wanted to remain employed by the VA and they were qualified to do so, they had to transition into another available position which may be entirely different from the position they were initially hired for. This is a drawback working for the Federal Government, and those who are not willing to accept these types of changes which indeed are inconvenient, they are better off working in private sector jobs that have stronger union representation.

My manager said she was told our agency was not authorizing VERA, the IRS

Remember 1980’s Regan and ATC strike. Who won!! Regan won putting 10’s of thousands ATC in the street for striking. Please, this is another win for Government

There is truly no valid reason for RTO. Productivity remained the same and, in some cases, improved with telework. People had better work/life balance, got more rest and had less stress, they spent less on gas, their cars last longer with less mileage and were eating healthier. People were saving $200+ on spending. This is being done out of spite. Jobs evolve, and unless there is a justifiable reason why you need to be at the office ( for example: doctors, floor nurses, cops, firefighters, janitors, manufacturers, cooks, etc), then you should be able to work from home.

We are suppose to be RTO already. I am going to the office though my agency hasnt affirmed a plan to RTO

They are cancelling building leases so that just shows how vested they are in RTO.

I agree with you on telework for those not under CBA and those not hired specifically under full-time remote positions. I am very curious how the courts rule on these two areas and what effects it will have for future positions and unions in the civil service.

Is it even legal? Congress hasn’t authorized funds to pay for them. So, people will be resigning and getting nothing.

Let's get rid of unions they're worthless

I thought there was a choice involved.

I don't know if everyone realizes that there will be an agreement that needs to be signed and in the agreement, it clearly states that an employee will forever waive their administrative and judicial employment rights. I'm not an attorney but this sounds like if they don't follow through, the employee has no rights. Also, if an employee is also retiring and something goes wrong with that, it sounds like the employee may potentially have no employment rights for that as well.

It’s a crappy experience. Had my pension and healthcare pulled. Turns out owning my own retirement turned out a plus. Then, there’s the ACA…

Is it legally binding? The answer is No

This channel seems very suspicious to me....

Stop legitimizing this

What is the plan to pay for deferred resignation if there is a shutdown after the CR ends on 14 March?

They can't unilaterally say that. If collective bargaining in not enforceable, then neither is anything that has to do with the deferred retirement program, RIF, furlough, and everything else on the planet.

The administration isn’t an owner of a company. It’s more of a steward. Therefore it can’t rip up contracts simply because there’s a change in management.

Not OPM…Musk

So the government could potentially pull the offer because of the courts? So then no one has a choice and people are just terminated. 🙄

Break it then... The Union will take it to court and the judge will uphold the Contract Agreement

You work for 42yrs to have $2m in your retirement, Meanwhile some people are putting just $20k in a meme coin for just few months and now they are multi millionaires I pray that anyone who reads this will be successful in life

I think that Bidens last minute "union Contract" will be found to be unconstitutional, and a blatant attempt to circumvent the incoming presidents stated objective. Watch out for what you wish for - Trump will be leaving office one day and he can leave the Democrat successor in the proverbial "world of hurt"!

Most people forget history. This is the same fight Reagan had with the ATC in the 1980’s. Several 10’s of thousands ATC never came back

They are getting localaty pay and are not coming into the office. Cut the extra pay out and they'd be running back to the office.

This is not entire legit - first, anyone in HR or a business unit (EL/LR,201, 203 - most if not all 303 series, etc) are not in a bargaining unit. You would think with all these smart people putting out content or in the media would know that.

Enhanced performance standards? What does that even mean. There is no supplemental guidance. How can you say it is clear. Please provide insight from a neutral perspective that is not parroting OPM’s generic guidance.

if you Govt employee's don't like it to bad.. I work for the FED 5 years and it is a haven for Lazy people who know every trick in book to NOT work! Merit means NOTHING ! Hang around and beat the system you get rewarded!!

Folks calling this a “buy out,” it’s a bully out. They’re saying quit now while you have a choice before we sh*tcan the masses. HOLD THE LINE!!

The Trump administration is wrong. The CBAs are enforceable.

It says bidning-just wanted to let you know

Choices maybe based on future retirement benefits.

Courts are going to have to decide. Opinions don’t matter.

You can continue but Musk already planned to watch every minute of your working day. 😂

I'm from Birmingham united kingdom, The difference Mrs Maureen makes in my life is second to none it's differently a life changing kindness. I really appreciate her effort in my life.

What if you dont have an office to go to? My sf50 shows my house as my duty station, so would they have to officially change my duty station before they can mandate me to come to the place i work for?

Just because they say it doesn’t make it true.

Schedule F is for farmers.

When you give information like, this is serious information concerning your federal career…you need to give the OPM source. Other youtuber’s that claim to be experts with federal employment are giving out bad information!!!

Thank you for the information, can you tell me where does it describe that in OPM regulations?

They way it’s worked out in my industry is, there’s an audit and everyone comes in, pretty much, assignments confirmed, and most people are allowed work from home again… Employee buyouts are a matter of timing in your career.

What kinda tranquilizers are you on? I need some of that stuff, though you aren’t as grim reaper like as the other guy here…

We are in a time where opinions can get one killed

I work for OPM. It’s not a policy in a program. It’s fraud waste and abuse.

I would hope the judge would provide some fidelity to this entire program.

The whole deal might be invalided by the courts. Now all those who signed up, maybe should have waited.

Almost 36 years a federal prosecutor. I will retire on my own terms and in my own time.

People in Hell want ice water, but that doesn't mean they can have it. We shall see how this shakes down.
