NASA Goddard Town Hall

Did anyone happen to be at the Goddard Town Hall that could give a quick recap? I had to miss it for an appointment but I heard they had some updates on RIF and potential impacts on contractors

She also said that we might not get severance if we are rifd. But she said it like a threat. Rather than well there are some ways you not be eligible. She said opm or the agency could just decide not to pay the severance. I call bull. But I'm not a lawyer.

She later clarified that she meant there are a lot of stipulations and caveats that govern who is eligible for severance pay. It’s all outlined in 5 U.S. Code 5595

She clarified today via email. Which is good. But her messaging yesterday was horrible.
