Elon Musk, leading President Donald Trump's Department of Government Efficiency, has implemented a new policy where all federal employees must email a summary of their weekly accomplishments. Failure to comply by the specified deadline, Monday at 11:59 PM EST, will result in their resignation. This measure aims to increase accountability but has raised concerns regarding logistics, privacy, and constitutionality.

I find it difficult to believe that a non-response will be treated as an immediate resignation, but not difficult to believe that some of those who do not respond may face a hostile work environment that makes them more likely to decide to quit. Even without something that could be challenged as a hostile work environment, I expect there will be a lot of constructive dismissal going on.
@equinoxhq Fair question. Let's go on news reports of the cause of job losses from at least one of the following organizations:
• ABC
• CBS
• NBC
• PBS
• NPR
• CNN
• Fox
• MSNBC
• Associated Press
• New York Times
• Washington Examiner
• Wall Street Journal
• New York Post
• USA Today
I think it's a likely yes but I can't sem to find exact numbers anywhere, especially totals.
