I don't think it's done. I think that it's going to come in waves. There is still talk of a reduction in force, which is sometimes referred to as a rift. So there was talk about executing a RIF at GSA and firing 90% of the people who work there. There's talk about doing the same thing at SSA and firing 50% of the people who work there. So I think that... That's the Social Security Administration.

Yes, yes. I think that people at these agencies still believe there's a strong chance that they are going to be fired. And so to kind of go back to the question of should people stay put, I don't know. I think that people... really are afraid.

I think that people are fearful that any day that they log in, there's going to be an email that says, like, today is the day that your agency, your office, your small team has been swept up in a reduction in force, and you no longer have a job here. And I have heard it happen firsthand to people at agencies. Yeah. Sometimes they come in overnight.

Sometimes they come in first thing in the morning. There's no rhyme or reason. And in many cases, managers don't even know that it's going to happen. They're just learning at the same time as their employees that their whole entire team is being shuttered.

Sure. At this point, I think anything is plausible. There are many systems within not just Social Security, but Medicaid, Medicare, and they are... designed and maintained by dedicated, serious, thoughtful professionals.

But if you are going in and you're just turning things off or you're changing code or even changing data without understanding what is going to happen in the system, then you could very well disrupt the ability for those systems to operate and function. Yeah. Medicare and Medicaid, which we refer to as CMS.

If you look at the CMS systems, if those systems go down for a day, you're already talking about the chance for a recession. So we don't take this kind of stuff lightly, and we never have.
