Re: predictive power of big 5 I wonder how ADHD or autism spectrum scales would fare. My hunch is maybe not great.

Yep, I didn't think you were endorsing it as a policy. Neither am I, but if you are a fed employee I think part of the deal is being accountable to the public, even if they want things you don't. And I suspect the public likes this as a policy

Brad, you're awesome. Just saying. I agree about the federal workers. Totally reasonable thing to raise. I bet majority of the US public likes the idea of fed workers being in office. I'd even say that if given the choice, many would prefer a fed worker quit to resisting return to office
