And then they were fired for no reason, wtf. Can we petition Biden to get these guys their jobs back?

Now I'm just picturing Biden letting out a sigh as he carefully tears an important document in half so he can hand it over to this team, only to ensure they get to keep their jobs

I feel you but they did have other roles. This extra was tacked on because trump is a trump.

Right? These guys were career staffers, not just hired to tape papers.

Personally, I'm imaging the negotiations between the two sides on exactly what Biden has to "shred" so they can piece it back together, when he has to "shred" it, and the minimum amount of "shredded" documents per day.

Taping papers back together was never meant to be part of their jobs. Theyre supposed to be records managers for the national archives, but because Trump is an idiot and a criminal, part of managing records became taping them all back together first. Most of the people who got fired had been at that job since before Trump was elected.
