Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link.

I saw patients this past week. Like I do every week. That is my one bullet point. I still need 4 more bullet points??? This is ridiculous. I'm doing my job, that I have been asked to do. He doesn't know what my job is. The AI they are going to feed my answer through doesn't know what my job is. The people who do know what my job is know that I am doing it just fine. We already have an evaluation system that I have to sign every 6 months and submit bullet points with.
My supervisor, and their supervisors, are now going to have meetings about us responding. Then we are going to be told in meetings about how to respond. Then I spend some arbitrary amount of time responding. Do you have any idea how much combined time across the entire government is being waisted on this? This is literally millions of dollars in total time waisted just for the whims of a mad man. This is a prime example of wasting tax dollars.
It is shit leadership if your supervisors don't know what you do (this is like a massive pet peeve of mine - that's like literally their only job). And, possibly to your point, if your leadership can't articulate what your team is doing, it puts your job at risk, when really they should be removing layers of management. But all of this is beside the point, because Musk shouldn't be the one doing it.
