There’s quite a few jobs that aren’t union eligible, and trust me when I say I understand how they operate. The first trump admin made it easier to fire federal workers, and believe it or not, there are federal workers that do get fired for doing a bad job. I’m “making an educated guess” that some of those people facing disciplinary actions took the option to resign because I’m telling you what I’m personally seeing.

Yep, I'm not bargaining unit, so it sucks more than most. And there's really not many of us

But I still have a shit ton of protections anyways.

I've fired federal workers, it's just a year long hassle and giving them every plausible opportunity to improve first.
