So forcing the jab on someone or they lose their is not traumatizing and just fine, but requiring a 5 bullet point email is not. There is no reasoning with you people.
Will sending the 5 Bullet Email secure anyone’s job?
No.
Apples and oranges.

If middle management only existed to send occasional emails, then perhaps.

Holy shite. Are you seriously asking that? Middle management has daily activity to handle and handles the vast amount of meetings with their direct reports. However, if someone two rungs down from me has directly worked or is the point person on a project and I want info immediately, I will go to that person.
Have you ever worked for a large corporation?

I’m not caving over an email. I’m standing my ground on doing stupid shite.
What you don’t seem to get is that the Gov workers who take the time to respond to this email are the ones that need to, to keep their jobs. Most will be lifetime Gov employees who will use NIPR GPT to game the system to respond.
While people like me who pull their slack will scramble to write some quick Bluff on what I did that week.
I do too much to give a shite about this email. And like I said, I have DOD contractors that would pay me almost 20k more to come work for them. So frick this email. :)

Agreed. One requires someone to be injected with something. The other requires a 5 minute email. That is absolutely apples to oranges. You’re just on the completely wrong side of it. It amazes me.

This email didn’t come from a CEO so your response is irrelevant.

You seriously think CEOs don’t send out company wide emails? Often with specific instructions?
Are you saying your point is irrelevant? That'd make this all much easier.

Perfect. I also have been told by many govt workers to at this email already gets sent to direct reports. So what is the issue?

Because middle management has plenty of responsibilities and daily work to do.
A CEO occasionally sending out mass emails has nothing to do with that.
Is communication a part of those managers responsibilities?
When the CEO sends them out does he inform at least some levels below him?

This email is equivalent to the CEO of chevron asking the janitor at the gas station in Bunkie to write his accomplishments to prove his worth. He has no clue what the job description is much less what he does.

Senior VPs sending an email to a sales team stating that all activity must be entered in Salesforce is stupid?
Does the CEO follow that up telling everyone in the company to come up with 5 bullet points for what they did last week and to reply directly to them, or they're going to be fired?

It is very common for a CEO to send an email to a sales or management team, including people several rungs below them, requesting they take specific actions, ranging from participation in a Zoom call to returning a survey to requesting feedback on certain initiatives, and many other reasons.
But the specific email that is the topic of this thread did not come from a CEO.

Good. Then you and Barry can stop bringing up CEOs and industry. Glad that's settled.

They should be included in the email, but I don’t think advance notice is needed.

Please read this slowly.
I work for AFLCMC.
I do not work for OPM.
Why should I sent OPM/HR my WAR report.
All my emails are CUI, OPM has no need to know.
Now do you see how stupid it is?
HUR DUR

This did not come from a CEO. This came from an HR email that will be routed to direct supervisors.

If a CEO tells a sales team to enter their activity into salesforce and they don’t…they will be fired.
