Master Threads
Hearing from a lot of senior cilvil servants in the DOD that are going to take the 7 month buyout. These are not slackers, but have had enough of the govt thrash. In the organizations I have led and been around there is a thing we call "the ledge". It is the retired military, senior GS guys that are retirement eligible, but do the job cause they like it.

Now that they have a choice to go early and are tired they may just jump off the ledge with no-one there to take their place. Unintended consequences of Elon telling trump to tell them all to just resign. There are specialties and knowledge that will not be replaced over night. Will be interesting to see how this all plays out.
I’ll call a spade a spade. This is 1st major fuckup.

I received the fork in the road email. In fact my boss was easily going to do two more years to 62.

Then they say will institute removal of locality pay to be included with retirement annuities.

In DC that’s 33% locality pay added on top of your pay. No brainer for him. He’s dropping papers. Doesn’t want to lose it, so he drops to get grandfathered in.

Don’t blame him

So here we are. I have also put the “open to work” Chiron *sp on LinkedIn.

Why are you looking to leave? Sounds like a good time for a young go getter to move up. Skol!

Wife said the same on Knox. I'm trying to let her know i don't think DOD/DHA will catch the wrath that like the IRS and DC centric acronyms will catch, but she's and her coworkers are nervous nonetheless.

Dropping Locality pay on retirement is bullshit. Going forward for new hires, sure. But changing the rules in the 3rd quarter is bullshit. I'm hoping it's a bluff to get some dead weight out. But I'll admit they will probably lose some quality employees.
 
Was at dinner, and guy tells me he read that helicopter was at 200 feet, in final 3 seconds, the helicopter went up to 350 feet and turned into the plane….this is the smoking gun if true….remember copters can’t go over 200 feet in that space……has anyone else read this b/c in my mind this is a game changer
