Holy crap that's a lot of knowledge and experience going. No way this won't have some long term problems
As intended. Republicans want to prove that government is inefficient and incompetent.
...by making it inefficient and incompetent, then pointing and yelling "SEE!!!"
NASA is dead
This is so sad
My husband’s small nasa center needs to let go 650-1000 employees. Even those that aren’t government employees and are contractors are in danger as projects are being cut. People can take the deferred resignation and give up their position or roll the dice and hope they don’t get laid off.
During a second round of the program, which closed at midnight Friday, 3,000 employees applied to leave the agency, Warner said, following the 870 employees that applied to leave during the first round.
What an odd, round number. No way this isn't made up.
It's called a rounded number and it's totally normal in news reporting
It's normal to say a round number in the headline but report the actual figure in the body. Otherwise that's not reporting, it's hearsay.
