You big meanie. It obviously was not her fault. It was the fault of her
supervisor who did not make it expressly clear that her time at work was
to be used for the work of the employer.
Very obviously, it should have been her supervisor who fell on his sword.

There is a myth that it is hard to terminate deadbeat or fraudulent Fed

I once took action against a young lady who was doing Amway business from
her desk on government time. I went through the agency's personnel
office
to prepare the evidence in compliance with OPM regulations, and then
presented the wrongdoer with this information. She resigned within days
when it was clear that we had her dead to rights. Piece of cake.

I formulated some time ago that I work by the job for profit... all

caveat
to that effort is the question: "If I do this, will it bring promotion
to
a
higher pay thus greater retirement income."
In the alternative the question: " If I do this, will it attract
negative
attention to me, and if it does, how will I cover my now exposed ass so
it
does not hold back promotion and retirement."
This "federal culture mindset" permeates every government agency and ,
history indicates, can not be overcome by peaceful means.>>>>
And, you need to get promoted high enough that you don't actually do
anything. Your job is to "supervise" people who are supposed to do the
work.
Since no one expects much and those above you are trusting that you are
doing your job and don't bother to check, all is well.
It also helps if you get promoted high enough to have a private office.
A friend who once worked for the feds said that his boss sat in his
private office and ran a chain of Chinese restaurants via his cell
phone.
