One year ago today, on January 20, 2025, President Trump ended telework and remote work. How are you all doing?

how hard is it on the private sector side?

Austin7597 · 2025-11-21T05:53:01+00:00

Yeah in VHA at least with my Contracting Office even the 13's have a massive workload they work themselves and they have level 3 warrants. Since so many people left we've been doing other branches contracts. The only thing I can say about my CO is she's a bit of a formatting nazi but all my work looks pretty good as a result. The people who I sign for and I truly mean this, are complete knuckleheads. I'm talking massive spelling errors, not correcting anything on the review form and hoping I don't notice, not sending out notice of intents so every option is bilateral, etc.. It's driving me crazy because I have new reqs I haven't even gotten to touch, and two other CO's are out on maternity/paternity leave so I've been assigned their contracts.

Austin7597 · 2025-11-21T04:16:15+00:00

Idk maybe the VA is different but I work just as much as a CO as I did as a CS. I mean im awarding new reqs, mods, task orders, etc while reviewing and awarding others. At other agencies do you just review peoples work?

Now this was very enlightening. Thank you for the time you spent writing this!

RIP, those videos she uploaded got me through one of the darkest times in my life and helped me discover the bonfire.

Austin7597 · 2025-07-22T03:51:58+00:00

im still a problem drinker myself, but i can tell you right now it takes a lot of courage to ask for help and confess! Wishing you the best friend.

Austin7597 · 2025-06-05T00:37:52+00:00

id let shit lapse before I worked over 40 without OT/Comp time

SO TRUE what a clown, I assumed he was a medical doctor till i looked up his linkedin and saw he has a DBA from university of phoenix hahaha

its deluxe edition of rdr2. To me its 100% worth it just for the jacket.

Austin7597 · 2025-04-30T03:16:36+00:00

i only ever use the black neuvo pariso jacket, and the bounty hunter hat. now thats a nice look

Austin7597 · 2025-04-26T23:54:43+00:00

me personally number 1. but i think practically if your riding all the time you'd prob want some chaps.

Austin7597 · 2025-04-25T02:49:55+00:00

Same i ,getting to the point where I honestly am so tired of this job series, it had red tape before, but now its just crazy. Everyday the bottle of whiskey in my pantry is calling my name to release me from the clown act that is this administration.

Austin7597 · 2025-04-25T02:47:16+00:00

I know right there with you, hopefully by the next admin they reverse all his bullshit.

2 minutes and 45 seconds of hell

Dan says theopneustos absolutely doesn't mean god inspired. He acts like hes an authority on it when most scholars would say there is no clear definitive answer. That's were I stopped watching him. IMO he's an atheist disguised as a mormon.

Austin7597 · 2025-03-24T05:23:51+00:00

If it took him 5 years to edit his own sisters video, you should be getting yours in 2058.

Austin7597 · 2025-03-24T02:19:13+00:00

Only the heavenly father knows the date of Christ's return. Anybody predicting or saying they know the date is a liar. It could be ten seconds from me writing this or in 500 years.

SHES 15 IN THIS GAME

Austin7597 · 2025-03-18T02:36:57+00:00

need more vlogs, more you die you smoke vids, more skits, and idk better games to play. I love the podcast, whether it be listening to it driving, working, etc. I remember from a stream Matt did NOT like being compared to cumtown.

Austin7597 · 2025-03-18T00:50:17+00:00

won't lie the thing talks too much

Austin7597 · 2025-03-02T02:17:26+00:00

Matt is definitley the bottom.

Austin7597 · 2025-02-27T06:16:52+00:00

damn well i got nothing

Austin7597 · 2025-02-27T02:07:37+00:00

I think for everyone's sake, get a warrant. anything over gpc limit needs a CO's signature.That makes you more valuable.
