My company of 60 people has us do this and the responses don't get read. I'm sure 90% of people use GPT to give their responses anyway.
Have fun with that Muskrat

now everyone is getting messages to not do it. and calls.
Can he explain his work without sunglasses this time?
He sent this even to contractors. There is no authority to hire and fire contractors. This is ludicrous, and also highly illegal for federal civil servants. I plan on reporting this to the security office as spam immediately Monday morning.
Remember when Trump got rid of the White House pandemic office?
Because Trump was a great business man who knew how to save money.
Copy job posting. Paste into email body. Send.
Let's start with you, bub.
Musk : Explain your work.
Employee : You gave me this work.
Musk : Fired.
More fuel for the inevitable lawsuits from all the people working for the largest non-profit org in the world. Hope they can make him personally responsible.
Judging from the article, my suspicion is they are going to use the data to train AI, to eventually replace human workers. It is not to justify one's self to not be fired, it is to allow the AI to replace them.
Hey Musk you asshat, stop wasting all of our government’s time asking federal workers what they did last week! We all know what you did, mass terminations and backpedaling, because you and “DOGE” are INCOMPETENT.
——— The good news is that all of us will die someday. It’s a small consolation but it’s what helps me smile today.
Dear fElon,
After the daily struggle to keep this government running despite efforts to the contrary and repeated unmitigated budgetary damage, I currently lack the crayons and the spare time to properly school you on a description of my job; even at a level so high you could use it as a space elevator.
Please let me know if that's your goal, as we could realize a cost-savings for NASA. Otherwise, I can recommend some intro courses on forecasting and management that could get you a little more up to speed, and we can arrange a time to meet and talk afterwards.
Have a super day.

Have him justify his existence first
Explain to me, Orange Man. What value do you bring to the table?
Wait. Musk has access to every address of these workers. Many have mortgages. Is this just a play to have the bank take their homes and then they are auctioned for cheap to Musk et al?
Oh, so that’s how he’s trying to run the country like a business! Sell everything off, and then move to a different one.
I also seriously doubt he’s smart enough to understand what many employees, such as scientists and engineers, actually do.
Unelected, immigrant traitor, in the process of selling your future.
To be clear, I have no problem with immigrants, but many of his conservative “constituents” do!
Can you imagine working for this guy. I supervise a small team and would never micromanage this way without a really good reason for it. Who the fuck has time for this.
It's like watching Office Space happen in real time.
I'd send them the longest fucking email back detailing everything in painful detail of what I did last week. 99% being straight up fluff.
Have an LLM write an incredibly long email using filler and buzzwords to explain a few simple things
lol
