Am I missing something?
1. Federal employees told they must return to the office.
2. For those who don't want to comply, they are being given the opportunity to voluntary resign with severance through September of this year.
3. This gets characterized as forcing people out even though there's two options to choose from.
So, what's going on here?

Who is their primary customer in a lot of these scenarios? Where is that money going to come from for that customer to pay them?

Using the private sector to manage public lands is never going to happen. Ever. The only land the private sector has the ability to manage is private lands. Period.

The implementation of the memo is different agency to agency. For instance I know of some people who are non-bargaining unit that have to return by February 24th. However bargaining unit employees haven't been told to return
You right, I thought I was looking at OPM policy letter, but it was actually DOD

I see it like this. Court cases mean
Discovery Discovery Discovery.
"Mr Smith do you work from home or do you have an office in DC?"
"I work from home"
"I see. Then what is Company X? What do you do for them?"
"That's um, that's uh, a company I uh work, uh fffffor"
"How's that"
"Pardon"
"How do you work for this company and the federal gov't?
You're not working from home are you Mr Smith? You're drawing a paycheck from the fed gov't, while working also in the private sector. Is that accurate, Mr Smith?"
"Uh um uh um uh um"
"You're not providing any meaningful work for the gov't at all. Is that accurate? You're just drawing a check off the backs of hard working Americans."
"Uh um uh um I I I'm a uh um uh uh ummmmm uh"
"No further questions your honor"
"Our next witness will be the owner of Company X."

Huh? There is a caveat with the deferred resignation program in the form of a contract that has to be signed to ensure this doesn’t actually happen and litigation isn’t performed during the deference.

OH, just like a lib. . . now we've shifted the goal posts?
The vast majority of drilling that occurs on land (i.e. not offshore, you stupid FRICK) is privately owned.
There are people who are referred to as a: "landman"!!!
They go out, research county/parish records in courthouses all over the mother phuucking country all of the time day in and day out and get paid well when then put a landowner and a lessee together.
You seriously can't be this frickkkkiing stupid?
I'm not going to add the rest of the equation up for you because just insulting you is enough of my time wasted.
Call someone who knows more than you. . . idiot.

Yea no shite the mining companies are private, but they’re operating under leases on PUBLIC LAND not private land. The lease is managed by the FEDERAL government, not the private sector.

Are you serious? I work with geologists who implement leases for mining companies on public land in Nevada. Let me introduce you to a clue.

Assuming you aren't in a leadership position I have no issue with you (other than hanging out here while I assume you are supposed to be working; yes, I know I'm here as well
) continuing the job that you have. But, if you are gonna act like there are no issues with BLM at the top level I'm going to assume you are bias.

The fact is, government employees have forgotten (or never understood) that they are accountable to taxpayers.
That they don't get to decide whether or not their jobs are remote or wfh, or that their job is expendable. The one paying the salary does--the taxpayers.

The position is no longer needed.
I'm sure some positions are not needed, but some are, do you know who should stay and who needs to go? does Trump? Removing that many workers will negatively effect many aspect of government and all of our military forces.

I've personally done leases in Frio, Zavala, Dimmit counties in TX and a shite ton around White Lake, LA.
I didn't have to engage a single fed in order to make a deal.
You want a fed involved in every step, because you're a Marxist.
We drill baby drill with permits. If we're not drilling on a lease, you lose the lease. It's really phucking simple.
Use it or lose it.

It will positively affect the growth of the debt.
Who is most of the debt owed to?
us
The house of cards collapsing would be more negative. What are the alternatives to attacking the debt?

The military is the most bloated part of the US government. By far. We could start there, for one.

Congrats on working on leases on what I assume is land that is not federally managed. What a way to provide a basis to your argument
