Transcript:

I’m officially unemployed. Today I was RIF’d from the government. It’s such a surreal and humbling moment; one that I knew was coming but secretly thought and wished would never happen. I started working for SBA in 2010 during my senior year of college. I came in as an emergency hire and was placed on the student career experience program. I worked in accounts payable for 14 years before moving to contracting in October. I worked remotely since 2017 when I was placed on a reasonable accommodation after shattering my kneecap while walking into work. I worked countless hours from different hospitals I was inpatient in from 2017-2023. I relied on work to get me through many difficult times in my life while I was alone in the hospital or angry at the universe. It kept me mentally sane for many years and gave me a purpose in life. I took a lot of pride over the team I managed and the work that we produced. I wouldn’t change one thing about my federal career and hope one day I can continue it.

For now, it is time to figure out what is next for me. To all my fellow government workers, I want to say it’s been a privilege being able to work with you. The government is full of a lot of highly intelligent and hard working individuals. I know that we will all be ok after the dust has settled and make a game plan for what is next. I have met so many great people in the government and hope the best for everyone!

For everyone that knows someone in the federal workforce, please check in on them. This is a scary and sad time for most of us and we are not ok at the moment and are faced with some scary unknown challenges that we have not faced before.

    I have found that ‘apolitical’ and ‘moderate’ actually means ‘conservative, but doesn’t want to have to defend their position or look bad.’

    Only those with detestable politics detest talking politics.

    Secretly thought and wished would never happen.

    Secretly. Outwardly, though, apparently they were all “Woooo! Fire me, bitches! I can’t wait for this to happen, let’s do this!!”

    You know that makes me most Furious about that statement. That I know we will all be okay part. She doesn’t know that. Odds are someone’s not going to be okay. In fact it’s almost guaranteed. Someone’s going to lose their home over this. Someone’s going to go hungry over this. Someone’s kids are going to go hungry over this. Someone’s going to lose Health Care protection and maybe die from this directly. She blithely assumes that everything’s going to be okay when she has no fucking idea and should know better.

      Kind of shows how privileged she is by saying they’re facing unknowns they’ve never faced before. She voted for Trump to hurt others and now that she’s getting hurt, she’s very quick to point out just how human her and other government workers are

        If she was really an in-patient for a shattered knee for years, she’s way more privileged than most (just the government funded healthcare alone is super privileged).

        I hope she’s ok, but if she was really a trumper than she deserves to be charged what the rest of us would have to pay for all that healthcare.

          But 78 million people are larger than many countries on earth. At some point we need to face the discussion about how 78 million actually don’t deserve and will not take this bullshit anymore.

    I view this as positive change. Why do you think she’d delete all those posts? If someone changes their mind about Trump, or realizes they’ve made a mistake, you need to respect them and celebrate them. Rubbing it in their face or trying to make them feel like shit is not going to accomplish anything productive

      It’s not admitting a mistake, it’s trying to cover it up.

      Admitting her mistake would be…admitting her mistake…and maybe going shoulder to shoulder with the activists protecting trans kids, immigrant families, and other disenfranchised groups.

      The Nazis that burned the records and evidence of the concentration camps didn’t feel remorse, they just didn’t want to get caught for what they know they did.

      If any Nazi wants my forgiveness they can earn it by bringing me ten Nazi skulls. That whould show me that they truly understand the harm they have caused.

      Anything less is just lip service.

      I view it as them being a coward and trying to hide in shame. Their post didn’t really come off as learning any lesson other than surprise that they got bit too when they meant to just hurt other people with their vote

      This approach is the primary cause of everything getting worse. Didn’t punish the south enough for the civil war, so we got James Crow laws and other horrible shit thrown at black people to this day. Didn’t punish Nixon, pretended everything was fine with all the other shit stains instead of holding them accountable.

      No, this lady should be vilified for what she did. Letting her hide it just means that she can act like she is in it with everyone else when she lit the house on fire. All these MAGA supporters need to be shamed in public permanently.

        I don’t think they’re saying to completely forgive them. It’s just that them changing their mind is a positive change that should be acknowledged and celebrated. People can change for the better. Some people would still support Trump even when it hurts them.

          I haven’t seen anything to indicate she’s changed her mind. Not one “I was wrong”, no “I regret my vote”, nothing but whining about what’s happened to her.

              No, but I’ve seen several posts about her here. While I suppose it’s possible she’s made posts regretting her support of Trump that haven’t been posted here I tend to doubt it. You’d think something of that sentiment would be reflected in at least one of the posts that ends up here but I’ve seen nothing.

                Can confirm, she hasn’t posted anything negative about Trump or anything that indicates any amount of regret for how she voted. Just this stuff about how she doesn’t want to get political about anything.

          Sounds like they were smart enough to realize how stupid they looked. That’s not the same at all.

          It’s A Cult. They will vote the same way again.

                It’s not our fucking job to deprogram them. We are human beings JUST AS MUCH as they are and we have EVERY FUCKING RIGHT to react to their fucking abuse. WE ARE NOT ALL TRAINED THERAPISTS. We should not be fucking expected to all just calmly take over a DECADE OF ABUSE and continue to take it just because the other people WILLFULLY AND GLEEFULLY accepted lies over their own families and country.

                  You’re so right. The opinion you responded to implies that we are not human beings being abused. It implies we are something else that should take this abuse and accept it AND treat the abuser with more empathy than we are ever given. I AM SO FUCKING SICK OF THIS SHIT. We are equal human beings and if they can abuse us for over a decade then we have every right to a response. This bullshit these idiots say about how they were brainwashed and how they are victims WELL THEN WHAT THE FUCK ARE THE REST OF US? CHOPPED FUCKING LIVER?! ARE WE NOT BEING ABUSED?!

                  I am so sick of it. Those people telling us to be nice to Nazis are fucking Nazi sympathizers at best and deserve the same treatment as any Nazi.

        Never intended to dox anyone. I’ve made sure to black out her husband and her name from all 3 posts. I personally was a big fan of the old Herman Cain Award-style of posting emojis over pictures so you could still see what was going on without including personal details.
