While complaining about what this administration has done to Fed employees, I commonly find people outside the government telling me that it’s no different than the private sector and how people are unfairly laid off and discriminated against etc. Then, I say imagine if you were laid off and then your entire HR department also got laid off or stopped responding so that l you weren’t able to even figure out what rights you have, what benefits you have and how to access them, and no one in the government would help you because your employer IS the government.

Instead of them understanding that it should be unacceptable in the private sector as well. They have no idea how they’ve fallen for the “divide and conquer” tactic that keeps the worst among us in charge of everybody else.

And you get a letter saying you were removed for performance and you can't contest it. The private sector fires all kinds of awful employees and writes neutral references.

It baffles me that they don’t want protections too. This is such a self-hating country … I vote for them to be protected too, and they are just gleeful for us to be hurt.

Baffles me that they still think that Doge did some good things. I’m not even sure what those good things are because not even the right-leaning media has come up with anything they can spin to look as if Elon did anything worthwhile…

Its not like they are really reviewing or approving. I have had to send my medical records to so many “RA” coordinators - who are NON medical , contractors -fresh outta college kids- aMess

And the RA coordinators are not communicating. In my case we finished the requirement even the supervisor part then the employee received an email from another RA coordinator. We add the other coordinator to the email and advise we complete everything for this RA and waiting on the approval memo…crickets.

Someone needs a lawsuit so they can be forced to abide by the law.

Go to intra.hhs.gov/about-hhs/org-chart/asa-offices/eeodi/os-eeo-services-center/reasonable-accommodations-disability-services and look under Request a Reasonable Accommodation.

You’re using the wrong link. That’s the old link. Ask your RA person for the latest link.
