More than 100,000 Federal Employees Reportedly Set to Resign on Tuesday
Brett T.  September 29, 2025
     
Well, here's some good news: the trash is taking itself out. Ever since DOGE started slashing jobs, federal workers have been presented with generous buy-outs to resign. Allegedly, more than 100,000 federal employees are set to resign on Tuesday before President Trump sends them packing. It's not that brave a move, since it's being made under the administration's deferred resignation program, through which they'll be paid through next September for continuing to do nothing.

The Guardian is too pure to post on X anymore, but they write:

The Trump administration is set to oversee the largest mass resignation in US history on Tuesday, with more than 100,000 federal workers set to formally quit as part of the latest wave of its deferred resignation program.

With Congress facing a deadline of Tuesday to authorize more funding or spark a government shutdown, the White House has also ordered federal agencies to draw up plans for large-scale firings of workers if the partisan fight fails to yield a deal.

Workers preparing to leave government as part of the resignation program – one of several pillars of Donald Trump’s sweeping cuts to the federal workforce – have described how months of “fear and intimidation” left them feeling like they had no choice but to depart.

“Federal workers stay for the mission. When that mission is taken away, when they’re scapegoated, when their job security is uncertain, and when their tiny semblance of work-life balance is stripped away, they leave,” a longtime employee at the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) told the Guardian. “That’s why I left.”

It's not an airport … you don't need to announce your departure. "When their tiny semblance of work-life balance is stripped away" — we're in tears here. Does work-life balance refer to being ordered to return to the office after working from home for years? https://twitchy.com/brettt/2025/09/29/more-than-100000-federal-employees-reportedly-set-to-resign-on-monday-n2419703

We need ten times that number by the end of December.

Oh bullsh*t.  Federal employees have platinum-plated benefits, and always have.

Cry me a f**king river.  What a pathetic little worm.

How many of those ‘leaving’ are fully vested in their benefits or at retirement age? Who is going to hire all these bureaucrats in a competent job market? Employers will have the options of trained private sector, inexperienced graduates or government employees(not all) who are trained to do little and expect to receive high compensation for it….who would you hire?

They resigned months ago. Took the deferred retirement severance. Today was already separation day. The paperwork was submitted long ago.
