Friggen idiots. Fire people and lay them off because they make to much money and then hire dumb butts in at a very cheap wage. Make sure the words get out what these people made before, so the new hires don't come in for any less. They need to tell LLNL to pound sand and demand higher wages then they got before they left.

If you look closely it's not LLNS hiring, it's a couple of subcontractors. You may quibble over that distinction but it is a huge difference to be working FOR the lab (as an FTE) as opposed to working AT the lab (for subcontractor). It's easier to make the flex terms and contractors vanish. That may change if Bechtel can figure out how to get rid of a lot of people via the AT WILL status we are now under, but as the game is now played, flex term and contract people are cannon fodder.

Newsflash, this is in NIF, you know, the part of the lab that got exempted from the voluntary and potential involuntary separation plan?

So far as I can see this is business as usual for NIF.

Higher turnover equals higher security risk. If we have a major security leak I suspect the entire management chain will be on the chopping block. It will be well deserved for their attempt to merge corporate hatchet tactics with a high-security environment. Wake up management, havent you been reading the news?

Plutonium Shots on NIF.

By scooby
Tri-Valley Cares needs to be on this if they aren't already. We need to make sure that NNSA and LLNL does not make good on promises to pursue such stupid ideas as doing Plutonium experiments on NIF. The stupidity arises from the fact that a huge population is placed at risk in the short and long term. Why do this kind of experiment in a heavily populated area? Only a moron would push that kind of imbecile area. Do it somewhere else in the god forsaken hills of Los Alamos. Why should the communities in the Bay Area be subjected to such increased risk just because the lab's NIF has failed twice and is trying the Hail Mary pass of doing an SNM experiment just to justify their existence? Those Laser EoS techniques and the people analyzing the raw data are all just BAD anyways. You know what comes next after they do the experiment. They'll figure out that they need larger samples. More risk for the local population. Stop this imbecilic pursuit. They wan...

Trump is to gut the labs.

By scooby
The budget has a 20% decrease to DOE office of science, 20% cut to NIH. NASA also gets a cut. This will  have a huge negative effect on the lab. Crazy, juts crazy. He also wants to cut NEA and PBS, this may not seem like  a big deal but they get very little money and do great things.

LLNL un-diversity

By scooby
Actual post from Dec. 15 from one of the streams. This is a real topic. As far as promoting women and minorities even if their qualifications are not as good as the white male scientists, I am all for it. We need diversity at the lab and if that is what it takes, so be it.  Quit your whining. Look around the lab, what do you see? White male geezers. How many African Americans do you see at the lab? Virtually none. LLNL is one of the MOST undiverse places you will see. Face it folks, LLNL is an institution of white male privilege and they don't want to give up their privileged positions. California, a state of majority Hispanics has the "crown jewel" LLNL nestled in the middle of it with very FEW Hispanics at all!
