Summary

The Trump administration abruptly fired multiple National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA) employees, then struggled to reinstate some due to a lack of updated contact information.

The NNSA, which oversees the U.S. nuclear stockpile, asked remaining employees to relay the message.

The terminations, part of mass federal layoffs orchestrated by Trump and Elon Musk, coincided with a Russian drone strike on Chernobyl, raising security concerns.

    For most roles, I could see that being the case. For this one? They are hiring back because they don’t know what the hell is going on

      That’s the best part, now they know they need you. Time to sit pretty while doing the minimum to assist/delay the administration. They gonna fire you again after they derped? Possibly, but the point is to keep nuclear safety in safer hands.

        Why would I assist? I’d just find a nook somewhere to sleep if I’m taking an unstable job because management fucked up. I’m not supporting a fascist regime
