I am extremely sorry for your loss. I know you were a great asset to the country, and you swore to defend the constitution against bozos like these two. Meanwhile the only people who could actually do something about them are writing sternly worded letters. Just know that you will be missed.

No, I assumed you were a government employee who got fired by doge. Was I mistaken?

I think people on hexbear would not want to "defend the constitution" or be an "asset" to the most evil empire in history. It sucks to lose a job and a likely relatively stable one, but I think it comes off as sarcastic because this is a leftist site- I would guess lussy has no alegience to the constitution or the country.

Oh, I was just trying to identify with them. Good point, though. I don't know why every person chooses to work a government job.

Usually for a paycheck and health care

Thanks for the warmth. I do find the mission towards the people a more motivating factor but i have no allegiance to the constitution.

[–] propter_hog@hexbear.net 7 points 1 month ago

That's been my motivating factor, as well. I'm proud of being in a position where I can help. But the pay and benefits are nice, too.

Yeah, like a "no oath sworn to an employer is valid" kind of thing
