I can honestly say I have thoroughly enjoyed my time as a federal worker.

Right now I'm working on my resume. I'm open to work, preferably in finance as I have my accounting degree. If you know of anyone hiring please let me know.

As I have mentioned before, please do not post your political beliefs as I am not interested in debates or opinions. During this time, please remember that government employees are workers at risk of losing their job. It's scary as most of us have dedicated our careers to government and government operations is all that most of us know and now will be forced to look outside for other options and start over. No matter which side everyone is one, no one wants to lose their job so please be mindful of this. Remember that government employees are humans too and it is a very scary time for most of us and our families.

I feel like we need a c/letsnotmakethispolitical to track these

I was just saying we need a Herman Cain Award type community for Trumpers who have gotten deported, fired, or can't afford eggs! Let's not make this political is a perfect name!

My brother sent this post to me. He's gonna send me some of their past posts and then I'll submit them. Will let you know when I do!

Heck yeah. Thanks friend!

Ok so some unfortunate news. Or fortune depending on how you look at it... Both her and her husband have scrubbed their Facebook pages of all things political, including pictures of him wearing the red MAGA hat. My brother went back to 2011 and there are absolutely no mentions of politics any more. So there's no more material to make a Herman Cain Award style post.

I suppose the silver lining is that she seems to have been jolted out of the cult. Apparently entering the "Find Out" stage will do that do you. Her last post:

Yeah, that's not how I read this.

This is just more "guys, I'm not political and I don't want to debate" bullshit. Not once did this person admit they were wrong about anything. Not once did they condemn the actions of the administration that directly led to the situation that they are currently in.

It would have been so simple, and yet they just cannot do it. Their incapability to admit to being wrong or making a mistake is a fucking pathology at this point.

Herman Cain Award

I just figured this comm was gonna basically be that, but if there's a really prominent magat who got hosed that name could be used
