#2 I sure hope they don't do away with those OPSEC session due to cuts. I couldn't live any more if I didn't hear for the 700th time about Purple Dragon.

#3 I am confused. I keep seeing job cuts and then judges doing TROs to reinstate the workers. What kind of productive work are the reinstated workers doing? Are these new assignments less or more useful than what they were doing before?

#4 ^ Give 'em a desk but no phone or computer. Let them sit and shuffle papers all day.

#5 ^Give them a mop and bucket before having them scrub things. Janitorial stuff and see how long they last. Certainly don't let them near anything administrative that they could sabotage.
