You are showing that you have zero understanding of how these things work - this is exactly how you want it to happen. This is what happened all the time when you are trying to fix a failing business and our government is in way worse shape that any failing company.

Your poor public education has failed you.

As op said.. hiring freeze.. encourage retirement.. salary management.. job transfers.. operation cost reduction.. then staff reductions.. done in a thoughtful .. planned .. methodical manner.. which this is not.


I disagree. We need a disruptive force and I'm OK with coming back and fine tuning some of the rough cuts.

“really going to spend money on a lawyer to keep your 80k a year "career" job?”


Oh you are not going after 80k… and you do not do it unless the lawyer believes it can be impactful..

Was involved in a merger.. was not even laid off but had a few lawyers call me .. asked what my new job was.. new title.. new pay.. said I was happy.. they said give them a call if I decided I felt differently.. they had a copy of our termination letter..a copy of internal merger requirements and other stuff..

They helped a few of my coworkers
“ they got it done”

Once again, there's easy ways around this.

Slash their pay to minimum wage levels and these leaches will voluntarily leave.

So you're using a nonexistent post as evidence of your baseless accusation? While also insinuating your accusation isn't emotional?

I discussed the OP, I didn't opine about anything else.

I guess I can assume you think funding unicorn reproductive rights is a great use of funds? link me to any posts of yours decrying that.

I'd suspect the target audience for that information is not a post-grad subset, otherwise they might have referred to Selective depletion of kisspeptin neurons in the hypothalamic arcuate nucleus in early juvenile life reduces pubertal LH secretion and delays puberty onset in mice.

No idea what this gibberish is

The people (you) who want a larger government that attacks her political enemies (still you) wants us to care about 180 people who were laid off too quickly and are being brought back into the fold.

We don't care

The contortions we're seeing over this are crazy.

Biden didn't run the country for two years, oversaw billions and billions of dollars completely lost/squandered, and you think this would register as a significant failing?

I want you to care about the sociopath responsible for capriciously firing hundreds of thousands of people and immediately regretting his directives.

Yes, this is abundantly clear.

[/img]

i'll take things that never happened for 500 alex, employment lawyers don't work on contingency jethro, tell me you've never hired a lawyer without telling me you've never hired a lawyer. you see the way you can tell someone's never hired a lawyer is you all think all lawyers work on contingency , that's only personal injury lawyers you hear the commercials, you see the TV adds employment lawyers do not work on contingency that's how i know you simply pulled "Was involved in a merger.. was not even laid off but had a few lawyers call me" out of your a*s. why don't you give your mother her phone back you're embarrassing yourself

Have you ever worked at a company that has had a change in ownership? All kinds of things like this happen in those situations. People in the private sector deal with it all the time.

I'm not making a legal argument in front of a judge. We can logically assume none (or very few at best) of the people capriciously terminated are legal scholars. It is clear that this language was used to imply performance-based terminations or dissuade unemployment claims from the people who were terminated - probably both.

Unless more evidence was discovered pointing to the numerous dangers of HRT, this funding is wasteful. Even if it does, anyone with two brain cells can determine that injecting one's body with unnecessary testosterone or estrogen is dangerous without further research. I'm certainly not defending this use of taxpayer money. I want to make that clear.
quote:

Last night, President Donald J. Trump highlighted many of the egregious examples of waste, fraud, and abuse funded by American taxpayers, including $8 million spent by the Biden Administration “for making mice transgender.”

The Fake News losers at CNN immediately tried to fact check it, but President Trump was right (as usual).




This is making a PR point effectively?
