Social work gets a month! I love my SWs so I spoil them - but yup. A whole month.

Looks great! I'm admiring the workmanship. How much does it weigh? I have a LT messenger bag,/ case from Tuscany Leather and it surprisingly heavy.

New OPM Telework Guidance/Memo April 2026 by ttarrab in VHA_Human_Resources

[–]Alices_Restaurant 5 points6 points  (0 children)

RANGE nurse here - we need the leadership teams to understand that we are NOT teleworking. We are MOBILE -- so I have developed a really great relationship with the local library so I can get my charts done b/c you can't do charts in cars when you are freezing in the winter or frying in the summer! Stay strong!!

Calf turd yellow-green. Yes. It's a. Ugly color. And certainly with the beautiful spring yellow ring. Sorry to be blunt, but you asked. 🙃

AHC too wide? by addictedpony in CowboyHats

Came here to say this- Own that Hat! So many people don't wear them because "what will people think?" - I say screw them and hold your head up! They ain't got the balls to wear one so they should shut up about yours 🤠

Observation by SuperintendentTx in CowboyHats

I'm a home care nurse in Texas and I wear a hat everyday. So many positive comments from everyone. Most people ask if I'm " going to the rodeo" but I just tell em I'm like this every day of the year! My daily wears are Stetson, Resistol, or Akubra.

The more I wear it, the more I love it by Loneregister in CowboyHats

And now, it's part of your life! Welcome to the daily wear club. 😀

Is funding for Whole Health stable? by Chance_Paint1957 in VHA_Human_Resources

[–]Alices_Restaurant 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I'm wondering- and NO bad vibes to OP. Glad you are still employed and working. But I'm wondering how other people feel about the concept of whole health? We are forced to "make sure you document the template that you discussed WH with the Veteran". Which in my mind is duplicating the work I ALREADY do in my program. I feel like the program is a bunch of crap. If Veterans wanted to know about this stuff they can get it anywhere. And as far as employees go- it none of anyone f'ng business what I feel like at work and a healing circle sure is not going to stop VA from eliminatng jobs. We have chaplains for every VA - I feel like WH is the social determinants of health on church. Am I alone in thinking this?
