Shrinking the government by spending lots of money sounds like a terrible idea.
Not if you don’t intend to pay it.
Perfect for the GOP

Sounds like a terrible idea for you
I’ve seen a copy of the email. The offer also leaves it open for the agency to keep making the person work, so it’s not a clear-cut “paid administrative leave” situation. Even if it were, there is no way they’d keep it going through the date they claim; they’d make up some reason to cut people off.
I’m about 95% certain this is a trap to get rid of what will probably primarily be federal employees who dislike Trump. The other 5% is still trying to figure out how the hell to get off this train.
The short version of the email is “If you agree ahead of time to resign in September, you can work from home until then.” So, if you get another job in the meantime or give them reason to fire you, they’ll stop paying you.
Trap, Elon did this to his workers, and never paid
Brilliant way to destroy government. I wouldn’t have thought of this in my evilest mind. Bravo. Capitalism regulating government. Delightful.
What’s going to be the impact of all these workers giving up their jobs in 10 months? Probably flood the labor market, reduce consumer spending, tank the economy.
Trump Doesn’t Pay. He never does unless forced. Even then he still doesn’t half the time.
