| 340571 | 21050 | Gutting NOAA | 28 | mightyrime | Mar 13, 2025 | 2025-03-13T17:10:49-0400 | I have sort of second hand experience from a neighbor who works for NOAA. She is a Marine Biologist who studies dead marine animals and how they died and if that death has factors of climate involved, and its then charted in a year over year data base. She said the DOGE crew came in un-announced and fired about a 1/3 of her department. She kept her job but said it seemed completely random the people picked. She said the was a team where they firea all the management and kept the lesser staff with no direction as to who they report to or what they do now. I agree that there is probably a need to get our government staffing in check with reality and layoffs probably need to happen...but like others said the delivery and methodology is terrible and seems random at best. |
