I can honestly say I have thoroughly enjoyed my time as a federal worker.

Right now I’m working on my resume. I’m open to work, preferably in finance as I have my accounting degree. If you know of anyone hiring please let me know.

As I have mentioned before, please do not post your political beliefs as I am not interested in debates or opinions. During this time, please remember that government employees are workers at risk of losing their job. It’s scary as most of us have dedicated our careers to government and government operations is all that most of us know and now will be forced to look outside for other options and start over. No matter which side everyone is one, no one wants to lose their job so please be mindful of this. Remember that government employees are humans too and it is a very scary time for most of us and our families.

    i totally get what you mean, and of course i would never ever push anyone into it. i just read some kinda dark comments in this thread and i wished that people would be a little more compassionate

    i know they don’t deserve it, really - and i totally get how you can think of it as “aiding the enemy” or something.

    but i genuinely believe that we can reduce harm just by being a bit more compassionate, a bit more patient, and a bit less aggressive

    fascists believe that the world is polarized into “us” and “them”, and they believe that “them” would stop at nothing to destroy them.

    just a simple act of compassion can show them that there are choices beyond destruction

      I disagree. These are the people who call compassion the “woke mind virus” and they are takers. They live their entire lives taking from others because they think they deserve it. Yet fight against others receiving support and care.

      Expend energy on people who give back instead.

        thanks for your comment, i completely understand your perspective, but, you know, they say exactly the same kinda stuff about the people that they hate. it makes me uncomfortable seeing MAGA reflected in their enemies
