Starsailor, jedan od najprominentnijih post-britpop bendova, napokon stiže u Hrvatsku. Napokon, jer su desetljeća uporno zaobilazili ove krajeve, pa će im koncert u zagrebačkoj Tvornici kulture 17. listopada biti prvi ne samo u Hrvatskoj, već i u cijeloj […]| Novi list
Keith’s note: To my NASA JPL readers: I am doing my best to report what I learn about what is going on at your workplace. I get calls and texts at all hours of the day 7 days a week that I then have to check out. I am supposed to be retired and yet I spend hours a day on this. Even with contributions this costs me money to […] The post FYI JPLers appeared first on NASA Watch.| Personnel News Archives - NASA Watch
Keith’s Note: according to a press release: “Last night, the White House Office of Management and Budget (OMB) released a memo instructing federal agencies to prepare for Reductions in Force (RIF) if Congress does not pass a stopgap to fund the government by September 30. “The Trump administration continues to use public servants as pawns in their game to distract and destroy our federal agencies,” said Ranking Member Zoe Lofgren […] The post Rep. Zoe Lofgren Comments On RIF Threat ...| Personnel News Archives - NASA Watch
Keith’s note: Just as a new threat of RIFs and cancellations across NASA emerges – and the rebound that will have across the rest of the space community – JPL picked this opportunity to talk its employees out of working together to protect their careers by unionizing. Last month I posted “Is JPL Anti-Union?“: “Last week there was a NASA JPL town hall. The ongoing effort to unionize JPL was […] The post Perfect Timing For Pre-emptive Union Busting At JPL appeared first on NASA Wa...| Personnel News Archives - NASA Watch
Keith’s note: According to Politico (and other sources as well): “White House tells agencies to prepare for mass layoffs if government shuts down”: “In the memo, OMB told agencies to identify programs, projects and activities where discretionary funding will lapse on Oct. 1 and no alternative funding source is available. For those areas, OMB directed agencies to begin drafting RIF plans that would go beyond standard furloughs, permanently eliminating jobs […] The post A Shutdown Cou...| Personnel News Archives - NASA Watch
“Gutted.” “Devastated.” “Abandoned.” These words, written in emails from my former students, express their feelings toward the news that my contract would not be renewed after ten years of service to the students and families in my community. I found myself “riffed,” a colloquial term for a reduction in force, or RIF–a storm that we […] The post RIF: The hidden cost of teacher reductions in students appeared first on The Educators Room.| The Educators Room
GESTA recently received notification of Agency Management’s intent to modify NASA’s policies and procedures governing Reductions in Force (RIFs)| NASA Watch
Keith’s note: In my earlier rant I mentioned the crap that I have been going through which certainly pales in comparison to what NASA and contractor employees have to endure as their dream jobs are stripped away for no reason other than to meet a body count quota. I am pretty good at running interference for all of you who have helped me amass what nonsense is going so as […]| NASA Watch

Keith’s note: the occupant’s last whiteboard message is a common sight across NASA. A wealth of expertise and dedication is being mindlessly forced out, undermining NASA’s leadership in space exploration. Ad Astra Per Aspera y’all. Larger image below.| NASA Watch
Keith’s note: WARN notices were sent to some Human Space Flight Technical Integration Contract (HSFTIC) employees. Integrated Mission Operations Contract (IMOC) folks received generic 60 day WARN notices last week and there will be individual layoff notices sent out at the beginning of September to the specific folks who are being laid off. This is all being done according to the President’s Budget Request (PBR) for FY 2026 – even […] The post NASA Contractor Layoff Update appeared fi...| TrumpSpace Archives - NASA Watch

NASA’s Deferred Resignation Program| NASA Watch
Keith’s note: this went out to everyone at NASA. You’d think that a former TV guy could read the room a little better i.e. “deeply personal and often difficult decisions”. — “Dear Team, Thank you to all who took the time to thoughtfully consider NASA’s voluntary resignation programs. I know these are deeply personal and often difficult decisions. To those who have chosen to depart, I want to express my […] The post Sean Duffy: Embrace The Challenge 2.0 appeared first on NASA W...| Administrator Updates Archives - NASA Watch
