US Government struggles to rehire nuclear arsenal staff it fired days ago..

The US government is trying to bring back nuclear safety employees it fired on Thursday, but is struggling to let them know they should return to work, it has been reported.

The National Nuclear Security Administration workers were among hundreds of employees in the energy department who received termination letters.

An email obtained by NBC said the letters for the NNSA employees "are being rescinded, but we do not have a good way to get in touch with those personnel".

You just couldn’t make this up, even in your worst nightmares…

Strange thing to do in the first place, but does the agency not have their employees' addresses etc.?

Or has someone destroyed all the Personnel records?
@ArishMell Musk’s actions are all about performative cruelty and not at all about increasing government efficiency. According to The Economist, US Treasury daily outgoings have gone up from about $26 billion a day under Biden to around $30 billion per day under Trump.

It’s all nasty nonsense designed to destroy people’s lives, not to do good of any kind.

@Adeptlinguist That's certainly the effect, but there seems no-one able to rein him in.

If the idea was to reduce Government spending what are those extra $4Bn in just a few weeks? Can't all be redundancy payments, can they?
@ArishMell Do you mean someone or do you mean "someone"; whose name sounds a bit like, say, Alan Tusk?

@jackieash Well.... The President is "Alan Tusk" 's boss... I think.
