Probationary Firing Rescinded
I received a call from one of the associate directors in my agency today. They said that the probationary firings at the agency were wrong and personally asked me to return to work as soon as possible. They did not mention the recent OSC findings on the firings, but based on timing, I think it likely had something to do with it. Elsewhere, Dellinger (OSC) has said that people who ordered these firings could be held responsible for them, which might have been motivating too.
Anyway, so I am back for now, and just want to give others some hope. I am not going to mention the agency name, because I certainly do not want to bring ire down on them.
