The bill aims to clarify telework and remote work definitions. Furthermore, it dictates that teleworkers should travel to their primary workplace at least twice within their pay cycle.
Yep, fuck this bill. Never trust anything from Sinema.
Amen
Sinema is about as cool as an enema
That's not cool bro, don't insult enemas like that
He looks pretty bad, you might want to use two of those. You're filming this, right?
Lol, I hadn't seen this in years, thanks for the funny memory.
Requiring remote federal workers — emphasis on federal, as in people who work for the United States government writ large — to report in to their home office twice a pay cycle is laughably small-minded. It would seem the undertone of this is two fold:
It keeps workers planted to specific office complexes, which has tangible benefits to the local economy that complex is located within. This means that the politicians responsible for that area can claim credit for jobs where those complexes are located, even if the job responsibilities have little to do with that specific area.
It keeps liberally minded workers from moving out of cities and into exurban or rural communities that typically vote for conservatives. This kind of movement, writ large, has the potential to really shake up national politics, arguably for the better. And we can’t have that now can we?
In both cases, this is a naked attempt to artificially control the federal workforce to benefit the status quo and keep harmful, self-serving politicians in power.
You are absolutely correct
A major problem my friends who work for gov is that Biden been trying to push RTO, even as his own agency heads work from home, so I must have missed the poison pill when I read this article
