View attachment 724563
The U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) will allow ousted employees 15 minutes to retrieve personal effects from the agency’s headquarters Thursday and Friday, the agency posted in a Tuesday notice.
Former employees will be “escorted to their workspace” and undergo “x-ray machine screening upon entry” to the Ronald Reagan Building headquarters before gathering their items, according to USAID’s
website. Staff were also warned against bringing any “prohibited items” — including, but not limited to, billy clubs, brass knuckles, martial arts weapons, axes or hatchets, BB guns, bows and arrows, dynamite or chlorine for pools and spas — with them during their allotted retrieval window.
“This Thursday and Friday ONLY — on February 27 and 28, 2025 — USAID staff will have one opportunity to retrieve their personal belongings … Staff will be given approximately 15 minutes to complete this retrieval and must be finished removing items within their time slot only,” the instructions read. “Staff with a significant amount of personal belongings to retrieve must be cognizant of time; however, flexibility may be granted in select circumstances with the approval of the Office of Security.”
