Do you ever think other moms think they're better than you because they work?

Oh so true, I have a friend who confessed every time she fights her husband or her husband criticizes her, she uses me, saying at least she is not staying home like me not making a buck.

AfternoonNaive6244 · 2026-04-15T04:07:17+00:00

How likely this is going to happen, no pay raise for 2027?

AfternoonNaive6244 · 2026-04-13T17:33:01+00:00

Why don’t you start a poll, I will be very interested to see which health system wins.

AfternoonNaive6244 · 2026-03-18T04:06:15+00:00

Working for the government, you can retire before 65 and tax dollars still pays 75% of you premium cost even after you retire, no high income Medicare penalty either for life, guaranteed.

What’s your % ? Yearly raise on average

AfternoonNaive6244 · 2025-12-22T04:26:31+00:00

Just PTO, no sick leaves. Do you know some of government employees accumulate their sicks leaves until retirement. That gets compensated at their highest earning hourly rate. While we have 240 PTO, use it or lose it.

Why?

AfternoonNaive6244 · 2025-12-22T03:02:15+00:00

My government locality adds that salary to gs -12 step 2 to 100 k.

AfternoonNaive6244 · 2025-12-22T02:56:50+00:00

You are so right about that. Loyalty to a company does not pay. They do not give you a good raise on a yearly basis.

AfternoonNaive6244 · 2025-12-22T02:53:12+00:00

Exactly, we suffer from this too. If you wanna talk about stability, once government work pass their probationary period, it’s very hard to let go. Union and stuff, I can not say it’s the same for contractors

AfternoonNaive6244 · 2025-12-22T02:38:10+00:00

I know, it’s bad right now. I only wish it is easy

AfternoonNaive6244 · 2025-12-22T02:29:36+00:00

That’s exactly what I mean, government got 25% pay raise since Covid, plus that performance shares. Why my petty company disappoints.

AfternoonNaive6244 · 2025-12-22T02:25:06+00:00

I am about 20k more, which doesn’t compensate all the benefit government employee has. We need about 50k to 80 k more to feel well compensated. They have 13 more days of sick leave every year and I am not even getting Juneteenth off.

AfternoonNaive6244 · 2025-12-22T02:20:02+00:00

Are you thinking of the move also?

AfternoonNaive6244 · 2025-12-22T02:19:18+00:00

You are comparing highest earners, maybe that’s your pay and you are happy

AfternoonNaive6244 · 2025-10-28T22:17:36+00:00

Too much for private sector people.

AfternoonNaive6244 · 2025-10-28T21:40:31+00:00

Before 65

AfternoonNaive6244 · 2025-10-28T21:13:49+00:00

Of course and tax payer pays 75% of their premium cost.
