So yeah, if you’ll remember, I got fired by the NRCS a month ago.
I miraculously got hired for the same Civil Engineering position by a private firm 2 weeks later (I was literally under/unemployed for 2 years so this was insane fortune).
I got a call from USDA telling me not only am I reinstated and getting back pay, I also have the chance to do the ‘deferred resignation’ bullshit Elon came up with so I’d get paid until September.
It’s great I’m literally getting paid to do nothing, it’s great I’m literally stealing funds from the great satan but but I feel bad because…
Well, because this money is not coming directly from the private coffers of Elon.
And I actually believed in the mission of the agency.
But 
I guess I come out of this winning (?) AND unquestionably fucking over the Federal government
It was nearly a perfect job, the people there are people I would take over anyone else in this shitty country; it was a fucking dream to get seemingly the perfect role for me after jerking off at my parents’ apartment for 2 years.
I left Puerto Rico to go live in bumfuck New England for 1 month of work. I even gave it a second thought to return, even after all this skullfuckery. It’s just way too risky given I already have a job in hand.
