Serious question. Have any of these cases been appealed beyond the state Supreme Court? Or have I just not heard about them? Because it feels like the state rules on them, and that’s it, case closed.

Yes. We’re lucky that we have equity in our house and could sell it pretty easily. Both kids are adults. The younger one lives at home and would go with us. We’d buy plane tickets for the older one to visit. And yes, I recognize the privilege of that.

So when the news talks about firing probationary federal employees, the implication is that there’s a reason they’ve been fired. Except there’s not. The administration is just looking at the employee’s status and cutting them loose.
Stop blaming the federal employees.

Here’s the thing. Probationary federal employees are simply new to their jobs. Every newly hired federal employee is hired on a probationary status for 1-3 years. That’s all it means. They’ve done nothing wrong. IT JUST MEANS THEY’RE NEW. That’s it. But the public doesn’t understand that.

I mean, we could just go back to the old days when no one knew there was a hurricane until the winds and rain arrived. No worries, right?
