Nick Gioia was fired from the United States’s Agriculture Department in February as part of the efforts of President Donald Trump and Elon’s Musk technology magnate to reduce the size and cost of the federal government.
Joy was therefore restored and put on a paid license after a court decision. Now, after a second round of voluntary dismissal offers an e -mail in the last few days to government officials in at least half a dozen federal agencies, the veteran of the American army has decided to accept it.
The Russian termination and reintegration mountains, as well as the fear and uncertainty suffered by Gioia and his colleagues, have accused their price.
“For some of us, it is time to escape before this experience ends with what remains of our well -being,” said Gioia to Reuters.
Several other federal public employees have told Reuters that they are accepting this second offer of the voluntary dismissal program, stating that many public employees are already in nervous exhaustion after three months of chaos and cuts promoted by the Department of Efficiency of the Musk Government.
It is not clear how many federal employees must enter the dismissal program. The White House and Doge did not immediately respond to a commentary request.
“I did not want to accept this proposal, but it was very confused and disturbing months. I decided to accept,” said an official of the administration of the general service, responsible for supervising the properties of the government, which required anonymity for fear of reprisals.
“I am emotionally exhausted. Basically, I hit a wall of emotional bricks last week,” added the server.
The original offer of the voluntary dismissal program was sent to most of the 2.3 million civil employees at the end of January. More than 75,000 servers accepted the offer, part of over 200,000 workers fired by the Federal Government.
A second similar offer has been sent to a series of public employees in the last few days, giving them the opportunity to start with payment until 30 September.
The deadlines to accept this second purchase offer vary. The expiry of the agriculture department was sold out last week, others expire at midnight this Monday, while GSA employees have until Friday to decide whether to accept the offer.
Some workers who accepted the offers and unions of public employees expressed concern about the fact that the dismissal programs may not be legal or that the funds are not even to pay people by September, because the resources have not been analyzed by the congress.
Trump government authorities have declared that the purchase offers are binding and do not require the approval of the congress, which is already controlled by the Republican Party of Trump.
Trump said that the federal bureaucracy is swollen, inefficient and must be simplified. He also said he wants to reduce waste and fraud.
Greater uncertainty
Bill Hoagland, former employee of the Republican Party of the Senate and director of the Senate Budget Committee for over 20 years, said that the new voluntary dismissal offer arrives in a moment of greater economic uncertainty triggered by the commercial war and the Trump rates on other countries.
The employees who leave the government are going through a much harder labor market than a few weeks ago, said Hoagland.
Another GSA employee, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said that many colleagues decided to accept the last offer, despite the fears of a worsening of the economy and the job market.
“Many more people accept this. People are substantially exhausted, stressed and most think they will eventually be fired if they don’t accept.”
Daniel Meyer, Tully Strengkey’s work lawyer in Washington, said three of his customers – federal employees – accepted the last agreement.
According to him, his customers suffered pressure tactics, including the assessments of conduct and performance.
“He presses the employees to leave,” Meyer said. “They analyzed the voluntary resignation program and considered it more attractive than to remain.”
