Someone who is close to me worked for Fed Gov and now retired. They said many years ago RIFs are long and slow process. Affected employees are usually given a 180 day notice. In the case of DOD veterans are given seniority over civilian staff. I am unsure if that is case for rest of Fed Gov.
Thank you for the sauce, as I posted second hand info that wasn’t sauced.
From Majestic 12 on twat. May be a LARP but if not….
