I just moved across the atlantic for a civilian Federal government job that is honestly pretty fucking awesome and fulfilling job and 4 days in I’m worried about whether this dickhead is going to fire every new employee in the entire government. Spent all I had to come to rural Northeast lol

I just got in so I’m on the probationary period.This is the first full time job I’ve had in 16 months and I’m so burnt out from job hunting and I really really doubt I can get something as good in the private sector given the previous 16 fucking months. It’s supposed to be a good job with literally all of the elements that would make a job good.

It’s the best job I’ve ever had, literally can’t think of anything more fulfilling unless there was something out there with 10x the pay. It truly feels like a cosmic travesty that this is happening to me.

What we're hearing is probationary period doesn't matter; we're all at-will employees now and they're going to be culling the numbers across the board.

Honestly, I don’t think it will happen. I’ve otherwise been pretty nonplussed given my situation, I just try not to read about this stuff.
