[Vic Indiano]

My cousin is with NIH and got the same letter 
It really stinks.  The better examiners will find jobs as patent agents or attorneys or else retire

Was just talking to an examiner who received an email while on the phone ordering all USPTO employees to “return to office” due to new DOE mandates.  I suspect this is going to disrupt things.
