      Several of my own coworkers :/ We’ve got less than a month till shutdown/furlough deadline too, its so fucked.

      People smarter, more productive, and more important than me, are going to lose their jobs for the sole fact that I have been employed for 3+ years as a fed, and they haven’t.

        And many of them will seek employment elsewhere in the world, and that knowledge will be lost to us forever. Good stuff.

        You may want to take a break from viewing political content if this is your honest thoughts.

        Many people working in federal government have done so for multiple years, and multiple presidents, why would they be considered as a “magat”?

        It’s like we’ve come full circle to the GOP for decades sowing the seed of “you can’t trust government” for someone seemingly on the other side having the same sentiment. Again, if that’s your honest belief, consider their objective won, you’re in less control of yourself than you think.

        Referring to human beings as insects is dehumanization which is a tactic of fascism.

        In the future try calling DOD employees:

        • killers

        • child murderers

        • lay abouts

        • thieves

        • bench warmers
