    “What I did last week”

    • Looked for work.
    • Wrote a “what I did last week” email, and then deleted it when instructed to. Seven times.
    • Argued with my manager about whether DOGE was legally allowed to access the information they requested
    • got coffee for DOGE employees
    • escorted DOGE employees through the building
    • spent hours on the phone explaining to constituents that our funding was cut so we couldn’t provide the services they were due

    Watch these assholes get sued by the military courts over trying to declassify information through unofficial channels of communication. New world coming for these fuckers.

    And they’re running all these email responses thru their janky-ass AI which I’m sure is as secure as a paper bag under a waterfall.

      How could this not be a massive security breach? Even apart from directly classified work, the synthesis risk of something like this is just mind boggling.

    So, submit a completely redacted list of 5 bullet points? Isn’t everything the Pentagon does potentially sensitive and related to national security?
