Days like today I'm halfway rooting for DOGE to yank my orgs funding

 Nothing like trying to get shit done, even though I feel like the big boss is blocking me from merit raise or promotion, and getting radio silence when I make a request for something I need group action on on a Friday afternoon and its radio silence because everyone started their weekend early.    

 Of course I could risk my ego,  thinking "oh they'd fall apart if I just quit suddenly" and actually quit.  But I still like most of these people and don't want to put them in a bind.   My supervisor especially I feel would be at risk of a breakdown, she is already doing a bunch of extra stuff.   They wouldn't just fall apart, not right away,  some folks that are coasting a lotwould probably step up , some that are already working pretty hard would  work even harder and hope big boss got off his wimpy ass to fill the position quickly.
