We just got word yesterday that everything is cancelled for everyone. Sucks because we tactically utilized WFH days to open up more clinic space.

VISN 10 is as well, (or at least our facility in particular) from what I gathered from my doc's manager meeting this morning. Not sure if that's going to include ad hoc yet or not.

AFGE VA and NIOSH employee members held a rally and we had people walking by join and constant honking in solidarity from the passing cars! ❤️ We're not the minority. It felt nice to have a half hour of not being gaslit.

A local news article regarding an AFGE rally outside of a VA. The quote from a VA employee (me) saying: "I've taken two oaths to protect the Constitution. And we don't serve kings and we don't serve billionaires. We serve the Constitution and for that to just be dismantled before our eyes is not what I fought for."

They butchered my name and my grammar, but I think the message still got across 😂

That's why I cc'd my AFGE Local union VP on it. Your Weingarten Rights: If the discussion could in any way lead
to being disciplined or terminated, you can request union representation. I'm not sure if Musk will give a shit about the law (lol) but I'm doing what I can to protect myself.

I viewed it as brushing up on my resume because who knows what will happen in the near future.

I responded and kept it vague and told them I could pull hard numbers if they want to waste any more precious time of mine.

I also cc'd my union VP. 😎

Also a VA employee, we were told the same. 🙄

I'm an elder millennial. I eat trauma for breakfast. 🙄

Federal employees: talk to your local union to see if there's something you can help with!

DOGE lists 1,125 canceled contracts, claiming $7.2 billion in savings—but many were already completed, meaning no money was actually saved. In fact, 417 contracts saved $0, and another 51 added up to less than $1 million.

Misinformation spreads fast—sharing to set the record straight.

We're waiting on the same at the VA. I'm making sure each bullet point is not doable by AI.

Have at it! ❤️

Also I can't send bullets in an email or else I would have by now.

Don't forget your Weingarten Rights! CC your local union rep!

And don't forget your Weingarten Rights!

Hey fellow fed employees! When reading Elon's email on Monday, please remember your Weingarten Rights! Please CC your local union rep!

That's absolutely going at the end of my list. My list is going to be maliciously compliantly long to the point of obnoxious. And I'm attaching my outstanding performance reviews.

Quite an exchange here between Judge Reyes and DOJ attorney on how "pronoun usage" affects military readiness.

I mean, sure, correct, the chance of a young person dying from cervical cancer is very low.

But those young teens grow up, and so do their chances of dying from this preventable cancer. Which is why the HPV vaccine is great.

I swear, critical thinking is a dirty phrase for these idiots.

It is frustrating when those people come to realize that I wasn't chicken littling it up though. I've walked into shit shows with nothing but a deep sigh and a pair of gloves, but when I'm frantically flailing and screaming, THAT'S when we question my sincerity?

C'mon.

My 19yo laughed at me today because I heard a weird car sound while driving on the highway and quickly looked all over the dashboard to make sure my car was fine before realizing it was the car next to me.

This is my punishment for making sure he's always had safe vehicles to drive. 🙄

I used to say there's two kinds of people at the VA: those who do the bare minimum and then those that push for excellence despite pushback. Both groups say "What are they going to do? Fire me?"

It doesn't matter anymore, they're gonna.

🤷‍♀️

Canada babes, do what you have to do. The sane Americans will work from the inside, the rest of the world from outside. Hopefully we can clean this mess up. Hopefully we'll see y'all on the other side.
