More Federal Workers are Telecommuting

An anonymous reader writes "Boosting the ranks of federal employees who telework is a slow, sometimes painful process, despite numerous incentives and legislative edicts lobbed at U.S. agencies over the years. Take the situation at the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF), which last month was ordered by a federal arbitration panel to allow its legal instrument examiners to telework on a pilot basis. ATF was against letting these specialists telework because it says the material they need to remove from agency offices in order to telework posed a security risk. The Federal Service Impasses Panel (FSIP) became involved at the request of the National Treasury Employees Union (NTEU), which successfully argued its case for allowing the examiners to telework on a pilot basis."

They can't figure out computers. Also, they cause crime.

I wish I had the option to telecommute

[Anonymous Coward]

I have to encounter the occasional nigger in the office, usually in the bathroom giving me hot towels. Can't say I like that very much.

BATF to be expanded to BATFN

[Anonymous Coward]

When I am elected, it will oversee the necessary regulation of alcohol, tobacco, firearms and niggers. It's against my political philosophy, but I feel it's necessary.
