     LOL. Remember the List 5 Things directive from Musk last month.

     This is how one employee responded via Seattle Times https://www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news/politics/wa-workers-defy-musks-what-did-you-do-last-week-in-their-own-mass-emails/

     One sent a reply en masse to the Human Resources Department that sent the original email and cc’d their entire forestry region. The other employee sent it to their leadership team and also cc’d their entire region, asserting they would not be replying to OPM’s email at all.

     One of the two employees, a Washington archaeologist, wrote, “As a United States Marine Corps combat veteran stationed overseas their entire enlistment, this is the exact situation we are trained to look for and not participate in” and added the OPM instruction was “unlawful.”

     “They wouldn’t be downplaying it if they weren’t getting something from it. Do not underestimate what can be done with what you think is mundane information,” the archaeologist wrote to hundreds of people. “This is not about telling my supervisor what I’ve done in a week. This is about an outside entity being given authority and accreditation through unquestioned compliance.”
