What if the govt made this offer to laid-off feds?
“You can have your job back, if you repay any severance and unemployment benefits you collected”
Would you take that deal?
DOGE is gone, leaving behind 300,000 fired federal workers, 600,000 USAID deaths, and more
That’s not how that works at all. If the employer who laid you off reaches out to you and says “hey we’re sowwy, we actually needed you and we shouldn’t have fired you”, you laugh and demand to be hired as a consultant for at least double your salary
