The week's question
In March 2025, in the thread "Re: OT, out", Umm asked the members: "Do you think it is because America is made up of magical soil that makes businesses based in America magically profitable?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

So what percentage of federal workers do you suppose actually goes their offices?

60%?
50%? No?

Surely it’s at least 25%, right?

Nope. It’s only…6%. Party like it’s 2020, baby! I need one of these jobs!

The EPA has a bacteria problem in its building’s water because it sat stagnant for so long.

Ridiculous. This is why Trump’s term can’t get here fast enough.

dailywire.com - Only of feds work from an office full time and some arent working at all audit finds

Only 6% of federal employees work from an office full-time, and a third are fully remote. And some aren’t actually working when they “work from home,” a Senate investigation found.
“Washington is still operating as if it’s March 2020,” Sen. Joni Ernst (R-IA), the chair of the Senate DOGE Caucus and the report’s author, wrote.
“Just three percent of the federal workforce teleworked daily prior to the COVID-19 pandemic. Today, six percent of workers report in-person on a full-time basis, while nearly one-third are entirely remote,” the report states.


Cue the Bobs from Office Space.
