Keith’s note: Here we go again: more DOGE homework assignments – sent out at 9:20 pm EST on a Friday night. Update: Apparently this is now going to be regular DOGE homework on a weekly basis. Multiple agencies have reported that their employees got this notice too and agencies have responded to their workforce about how – or if – to respond. According to the Washington post: “‘NASA acting administrator Janet Petro wrote Friday to staff warning them that “government-wide communications may reach you before we receive clear implementation guidance,” according to a copy of her message reviewed by The Washington Post. If workers receive another such communication over the weekend, they should temporarily ignore it, Petro wrote. “Please give yourself a moment, and when you’re back on duty, check in with your supervisor or other agency leader before taking action,” Petro wrote. “Ultimately, we want to reduce your stress and provide clarity as we work through these requests together.”
