Laying off people just to call them back later!!!!!

Firing personnel from the CDC, especially as we head into two of the worst seasons for the spread of disease
it was short sighted , In some likelihood this personnel can be downsized, but doing it at this point as we head into spring break and people start to come out of hibernation and socialize as spring opens was just a mistake
The CDC is bloated like every Federal Agency. You can indiscriminately cut half the people in almost every Federal Agency and there would be no change in output.

I had job security for nearly 10 years because I worked in an industry that did exactly this. My job was to hire/release/rehire as needed. LOLOL
Very common situation, but for some reason we are now treating government workers like a protected class.

I can't imagine anybody thinking a job as a government bureaucrat is their dream job.
The government has the ability to frick up a wet dream...

Not reading all of this stupid thread. But, the article and OP is misrepresenting what happened. The workers weren't "fired" nor did they miss a paycheck. They received a notice of termination and were told to stay home. Each position was evaluated and these 180 had their notice of termination rescinded.
Again, zero of these people missed a paycheck or were technically fired prior to this. This was a notification of a planned future action that then did not come to pass.

What opinions can one have about numbers?
If someone wants to dispute the average values I used, they could do that I suppose, but I looked them all up.
Pretty sure my math is correct. If so, what else is open to interpretation?
Seems like you came back here for the one and only purpose to be a gigantic unreasonable a-hole to everyone you could.
Did you get divorced in your absence or something? Stock market not doing well for you are something? Found out your wife was screwing the pool boy?
I don't know who it was or what form it came in, but someone spent six months pissing in your cereal and now you're back to take it out on people here.

You didn't name the business that did it, though. You said it was a mistake - did you expect an agency with "efficiency" in its name to make this many mistakes within weeks of its formation? Why doesn't that concern you?

Unless you're talking about "for cause" dismissal or immolation, you're misusing the term "fire"
This memo does not include "layoff" verbiage, but does include "terminate." It heavily implies that the terminations were performance-based.

Saying something worked at a tech company like X so it’ll be totally fine at a government job is so laughably stupid I’m almost speechless…almost.
Making a statement like the one you just made is so stupid that...well, I'm not surprised by it at all here on this board.
Whether someone is or is not used to working for a living doesn't make any difference to the question at hand. In fact, the government job is the one that is by far easier to fill, by your own logic. By your logic if it worked in the private sector, it should work that much better in the public sector, where people aren't expected to work hard.
It basically makes as much sense as picking any irrelevant factor you could think of and then claiming THAT'S why this might work in the private sector, but it won't work with a government workforce. You might as well claim the color of the company logo is why it worked in one place and not the other.
Not to mention, you government worker apologists are the ones that started making the comparison, not me. If you can't compare apples and oranges, then why did you guys start out doing so?

Inefficiency is why the acquisition occurs. You layoff more than you need to find out how many people are actually needed to run the business
The government isn't a business. The only way to determine how many employees the government needs is to fire as many as legally (or illegally) possible? And that is government efficiency, folks. What a time to be alive.

You continue to make this emotional claim without an ounce of objective data. They didn't make "many" mistakes just because you typed it on a keyboard.

I'm sorry—I don't want to call you a liar—but it absolutely does no such thing.
It specifically gives the direction to identify which employees are "mission-critical," which clearly means they are directing managers to trim their workforce down to the bare essential staff necessary to compete operations.
Nowhere in that memo did I see anything that "implied that terminations were performance based."
And it also specifies that it is specifically only talking about probationary employees. Do you know what that means?

Why doesn't that concern you?
I've already answered this question twice. Must I do it again?
Look, come clean. You're doing some kind of graduate experiment or writing some kind of academic paper with this stuff, right? Kick the online "white Christian nationalist" anthill and write about what the hillbillies post?
If not, come on. Grow up.

What would you call the quantitative data pertaining to the number of terminations and attempts to rehire in the OP? Oh wait. A woman posted it so it must be emotional quantitative data.

Nah, it's just a *you* problem.
