Rep. Comer Reintroduces Bill to End Pandemic-Era Remote Work for Federal Employees
The typical "solution in search of a problem" GOP B.S. for the MAGA gullible. There is a lower share of teleworkers in the federal administration than in the private sector. As everywhere, it's concentrated in computer and mathematical professions. Good luck to the federal administration if these employees, whose skills are highly demanded on the job market. Quotes from the CBO report. In 2022, CBO estimates, 22 percent of federal employees usually teleworked, as did 25 percent of their private-sector counterparts. The ability to telework is highly dependent on occupation. In 2022, federal employees were more likely than workers in the private sector to serve in occupations in which telework was common. In the computer and mathematical occupations, which employed a larger portion of federal workers than private-sector workers in 2022, for example, teleworking was most common. The rates of telework for people in those occupations differed by sector, though—37 percent for federal workers, compared with 56 percent for their private-sector counterparts in 2022. One reason for the much higher telework rate for private-sector workers might be that federal workers are more likely to be required to go to the office to access sensitive data. https://www.cbo.gov/publication/60235#_idTextAnchor044 -

Foreigner Holds Thai Wife at Gunpoint in Car – Police in Chumphon Launch Search
UPDATE Foreign Husband and Thai Wife Arrested for Methamphetamine Use After Chumphon Incident Picture courtesy of Komchadluek. In a shocking turn of events in Chumphon, Komchadluek News reported that the foreign man and his Thai wife were arrested after being found to have used methamphetamine ( “yaba”) while driving. This incident began when a Facebook post went viral, reporting a black Ford 4-door pickup truck driven by a foreign man and his wife trying to get out the passenger door. Following the alert, Chumphon Highway Police and Ban Nahu Police Station set up a roadblock and intercepted the vehicle near the Kuan Hin Mui railway station in Ban Nacah, Laeng Suan District. The wife, later identified as Ms. Lamai, claimed that the couple had argued over jealousy issues, and she attempted to leave the car after consuming wine. She expressed regret for causing the disruption. Upon calming down at the police station, officers from the Chumphon Tourist Police grew suspicious of the couple’s behavior, which appeared erratic and indicative of drug use. The smell of narcotics was detected inside the vehicle, and police requested a urine test. Both individuals tested positive for methamphetamine, and further testing confirmed the presence of the drug in their system. The Swiss national, 42-year-old Sandro, was charged with using and possessing methamphetamine without authorisation, while Ms. Lamai, 36, faced the same charge. Both confessed during interrogation that they used the drug to alleviate body aches, with the last dose taken on January 17 while en route to Krabi. Ms. Lamai later expressed deep remorse for the incident, explaining the frequent arguments with her foreign husband, citing jealousy and anxiety from their business dealings overseas. She revealed that her husband had attempted suicide twice due to stress from business losses and growing paranoia, even suspecting her of infidelity during a trip to Vietnam. She also stated that damage to the pickup truck was mistakenly attributed to her supposed affair, though it was her husband who was driving at the time. On January 18, the couple was transferred to Laeng Suan Provincial Court. Both now face legal consequences for their actions, and the case has highlighted the dangers of methamphetamine use and the strain it can place on personal relationships. -- 2025-01-18 -

Fed up! Indian Tourists Caught Urinating at Pattaya Beach, Sparking Outrage
Enlarged prostates do that too... which of course is a very common affliction. It would be impossible to find a toilet anywhere along Beach Road unless you were close to a shopping mall. -
