If you’re not familiar with r/Fednews, it’s a subreddit where gov workers are sharing stories.

Unionizing is already going to be a uphill battle in this Trump era. But don’t quit. Don’t feel like it’s a hopeless cause. They want you to quit. They want you to be angry and get rid of you.

If you want change, then stay. Do just enough. Wait for an opening and force them to fire you.

That’s what they did during the democrat presidents.

    I have no idea what you’re even doing with your life.

    It’s called earning a living. Not everybody has the luxury of a moral high horse to ride off into some picturesque sunset. They have bills to pay and mouths to feed.

      This isn’t saying not to work. It’s don’t work harder than you have, don’t go above and beyond. Don’t be your employer’s simp, they’ll fuck you when it’s convenient for them.

      Tf is your problem? Are you that desperate to lick the boot that’s on your neck? 🙃

      Sorry, you get what you fucking pay for… You wanna pay me the lowest amount you can (in most cases legally) get away with? That is exactly the amount of effort you’re gonna get in return.

      And if you don’t like it, feel free to go get fucked by your moral high horse right in your picturesque sunset 🖕😁🖕
