Wow, I work in Dell Fed and the efforts being put forth to help keep our country safe are amazing. You want to divert funding about from that??!! I am a big tree-hugger, don't get me wrong. But you need to be careful what you say. If you are really not happy here at Dell, find another job.

You mean to tell me Dell is in on that?? GTFO.

Fine, Dell employees. Protest the FED contracts. And watch your bonuses shrink.
