Any Truth To The Rumor That Employees At VA Hospitals....

got the resignation letters that have been sent out to other government entities.

If so - does that include the professional health care workers like nurses, doctors, pharmacists, etc?

Why would Musk & Tr**p do this? They
will just piss off vets & active military. Why would anyone want to enlist?

When I worked there, about half of the employees were from a nearby medical school that was unaffiliated with the VA.

It was a split. The VA workers made less and did the same job as the other workers from the medical schools.

I do not see how they can fire people in an environment like this.

I hope not anyway!
