You won’t even get a cost of living raise.
I doubt it. My friend who works for USDA was in a team of 11. Most of them quit and she’s now in a team of 4. Her work doubled.
I wouldn't even ask that. I'd be more "Haha, no. Not my problem."
Will you pay me 10% more?
Sure they will ... In pizza parties 😏
"No" is a complete sentence.
Well, it should end in a period.
It's day one for someone.
It's a good thing all those SS employees got stock options when they signed up for the job!
Forgot the /s
Oh wow, I thought they were serious
The government doesn’t have stock options.
...I'm pretty sure the reply was sarcastic as well.
How is one to know without the /s? It’s realistic with American public education that people wouldn’t understand how the government works
Understanding sarcasm has nothing to do with education, but has to do with simply existing in society and interacting with people offline on a semi-regular basis.
The thing is, if they don’t (or any agency not working harder), Donald will state the agency sucks, and it’s a waste of taxpayer money and will shut it down.
Lol!
Oh, wait. This isn't The Onion? Well...fuck.
Sure. I'll just multiply my current efforts times 10% and...
probably cant afford to lose those boomer votes right now.
