IRS agent training death

[Junior314]

Again, you are believing the fear porn.

The IRS has around 2-3,000 armed agents. That isn’t changing. The IRS current overall headcount is down to the numbers they had in 1970. They have to do a lot of hiring just to maintain their current level of staffing — around 50,000 over the next six years just to keep their headcount.



Or you can just keep believing the fear porn.

You can keep repeating the same numbers if you want. I understand what your saying I’m not arguing about staffing levels.

1 armed IRS agent is 1 too many.

Federal government unions are weak and useless. They can't strike, they can't bargain for pay, they can't bargain for benefits. About the only thing they can do is help save someones job when management effs up.

And management in the fed is 10x worse than the private sector....

Yet it seems that they successfully avoided any "mandate" to GET THE F BACK TO WORK. Not just the IRS agents. We're talking town halls and the mASS State Whores as well. Teh same people that got to tell us "RUN AND HIDE" and "ALL IS WELL" didn't heed any "ALL IS WELL" at all.

This is why I don't argue against unions in the federal workplace.

In the public sector, there is no fear of failure by management. The agency will continue, the jobs will continue, and management pays no price for bad decisions. And so, they screw with good employees and reward bad ones, based on whatever suits their whims at the moment.

I was a federal union employee for 23 years, and an e-board member for about 12 years. I was glad to protect employee rights.

Now that I'm semi-retired, I would fight like hell to keep unions out of my workplace.

Like we said in the G, if management didn't keep screwing up, we wouldn't need a union....

Wondering how this happened, self inflicted, or someone else? etc?

Maybe he was giving a demonstration to school kids, and told them that he was the only one professional enough to carry a gun.

We should reduce staffing to 0. Problem solved.

You guys are paranoid. LOL

A client of mine got the alarm bell rung by a d-bag IRS agent. IRS Police didn't show up. The FBI did. In a panel van. Like AR's and body armor and face masks and the works. They had it cleared up in about 15 min and the "agent" was pretty much fired the same day for being a complete tool to the client in the first place.

As much as I hate the IRS - and I hate them for 30,000 more reasons than you do - I'm not real worried about them getting weaponized. Would you want to go into someone's office to ask for records and NOT be armed???? Just some backwater bar or whatever?? Same reason we don't want civilian workers wandering in and seeing if inner-city tools "need help" unarmed, SOME IRS agents NEED to be armed - in case someone starts blastin.

(TBH - the biggest problem in the IRS is the fact that they are unionized federal workers. This means they can do 1/3 hte work and complain 3x as much. I'm not sure all of them are back in the office from Covid. It's 3 years later. Get your sorry asses in teh office, work a full shift and ANSWER THE GD PHONE!)

Yeah ok, so if I need to go to NYC or St Louis I can be armed right?

Some animals are more equal than others.
