More than a day after being notified that they should expect to be dismissed during their probation period for reasons having nothing to do with performance, two people on my team were finally notified after 10 pm ET via email and attachment. I have to assume that hundreds if not thousands other across the fed were also affected or will be soon.

I want to give my folks the dignity of determining their next steps but I anticipate that as they, and more of us, are set aside by the government that I will be doing what I can to help them find new berths.
For people in my professional network, this is one way you will be able to help out in the coming days. More to come on this, no doubt.
