At the VA medical system, they word-searched for "consulting" and cancelled contracts for.... surgical equipment sterilization, medical waste removal, stuff related to air quality that's required for hospital accreditation, and local burial services for people who die in the hospital.

Then a lot of those had to be reinstated because you simply can't operate a hospital without sanitation.

Just like they had to scramble to hire back the folks at the National Nuclear Safety Association.

Yeah, efficiency is great. But this is like ordering tacos and getting... a used tire and some dirty diapers...?
