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.
It would be absolutely hilarious if the workers took this opportunity to unionize and negotiate getting their jobs back with higher pay and better benefits.
This is management at its best.

“We’ve been trying to reach you about your expired nuclear safety job” /s
Glowing demonstration of eggsceptional management skills.
I’d prefer if things don’t glow, thank you very much.

Now imagine what would happen if this had happened a year in the future… Everybody has new gigs, no intentions of coming back, and the institutional knowledge has been lost. Almost makes you think that these 2 presidents might be traitors
“Everybody is replaceable” is only true for menial jobs. Some jobs are so critical and demand so much specialization that sometimes there’s only one person that can do it right.
Elect a clown, expect a circus.
