Crime in San Francisco Has Gotten so Bad That Government Employees Are Being Advised to Work From Home

Conditions in the city of San Francisco have deteriorated to the point where government employees who normally report to work at a downtown federal building have been told to work from home.

The building houses the offices of former House Speaker and multiple federal agencies.

All of this is being allowed to happen. The city could end this tomorrow if they wanted things to return to normal.

Not a Parody: Gov’t Employees Told To Work From Home Due to Rampant Crime Outside the Nancy Pelosi Federal Building in SF

What happened: The urged hundreds of government employees in San Francisco to stop coming to work at the Speaker Nancy Pelosi Federal Building due to safety concerns.

• The 18-story building, which houses various federal agencies and former House speaker Pelosi’s office, sits adjacent to the city’s Tenderloin district, a notorious haven for drug-addled vagrants and other violent criminals.

• Pelosi reportedly raised concerns about the safety of the building’s tenants, including members of her staff, in a recent meeting with the U.S. attorney’s office.

What they’re saying: “In light of the [disgusting and unsafe] conditions at the [Speaker Nancy Pelosi Federal Building] we recommend employees … maximize the use of telework for the foreseeable future,” wrote Cheryl Campbell, the Health and Human Services assistant secretary for administration, in an August 4 memo.

Here’s what it looks like outside the building:

This is a choice.

Why are people putting up with this?
