And you’ve probably seen Elon Musk’s claim that failure to respond will be treated as a resignation. 🔹 Let’s be clear: That’s legally baseless. 🔹 The email itself does NOT say that. 🔹 And for career federal employees, failure to respond cannot lawfully be treated as a resignation. But ignoring the email outright could be risky. Agencies could mischaracterize your non-response as insubordination or failure to follow instructions. ✅ What You Should Do to Protect Yourself 📌 Forward the email to your supervisor and ask for guidance. Here’s a template: Subject: Request for Guidance on OPM Email Dear [Supervisor’s Name], I received the attached email from the U.S. Office of Personnel Management (OPM) asking me to provide a list of my work accomplishments from last week. The email did not originate from my agency or my chain of command, and I want to ensure I respond appropriately in compliance with agency expectations. Please advise by [end of my tour of duty on Monday] whether I am required to respond and, if so, what type of information I should include in my response. Unless I receive instruction from my agency or chain of command, I will assume there is no obligation to reply to this request. Best regards, [Your Name] [Your Position] [Your Agency] 📌 If required to respond, focus on five strong bullet points based on your performance plan, emphasizing measurable impact. 📌 Remember: This is an intimidation tactic. But you have strong civil service protections. If you face retaliation, threats, or wrongful termination, consult your union or a federal employment attorney immediately. I’ll continue monitoring this and will post updates as needed. Stay informed, stay professional, and don’t fall into any legal traps. 💬 Federal employees: What questions do you have? Drop them below or message me. If this was helpful, share this post to help others. #FederalEmployees #GovJobs #ElonMusk #OPM #FederalWorker #KnowYourRights #GovernmentJobs #CivilService #EmploymentLaw #WorkplaceRights #FedLife #PublicService #JobSecurity #UnionStrong #MindfulWork

The other day at work we had a show in who brought along their own very capable sound technician. As I was getting him all set up to run their show in our venue, I showed him how to do some esoteric routing in our #digico console that solved a problem for him.

A little later, I noticed he was running #ReaperDAW for recording the show. He started about tediously adding a track, then clicking through a series of menus to assign the routing, rinse & repeat 40some times.

I said "oh, you're a Reaper fella too, eh?"

"Yeah, it's great and all... but I don't suppose you have any tricks to make this go faster?"

Boy did I.

I showed him how to add all his tracks at once.
How to arm them all at once.
How to use the Routing Matrix to VERY quickly assign channel routing.
How to quickly name all the tracks.

At the end of 2 minutes, he had his reaper file ready to rock and told me "they should double your salary".

While he's not wrong, it got me thinking about other industry pros who protect all their knowledge like gold charms hanging from their belt. I've encountered them, too.

I DID NOT spend decades suffering, bleeding, failing, learning, succeeding, writing my own rules, etc just to have ALL THAT CRAZY COOL SHIT die with me.

Information is for *everyone* and I personally will trip over myself with excitement for any opportunity to pass it along.
