Government workers were already making do with a lot less than is generally accepted in the private sector, especially after the GSA conference scandal of somewhat over a decade ago.[1] During my time as a federal employee, many government offices had no soap at the kitchenettes, and some had no coffee. Folks tended to bring in their own drip-coffee pots for the office.
