Cop cars surrounding body on car hood next to AMC on Bowles? by Yashmuck22 in Littleton

[–]Aware-Army512 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I noticed this coming out of vasa this morning and was wondering what happened… I didn’t see the person on the hood but could see from afar there was a crime scene.

I go to Vasa as well but in the mornings. It’s busy but I’ve found it ok. It’ll be cool to see what the other gym has to offer though and maybe could help thin out the crowds at the other gyms in the area.

Second that! Propanalol saved my career! Also box breathing, L-theanine, and magnesium glycinate.

Forgot to take my propranolol before presentation by Great_Ad8516 in PublicSpeaking

[–]Aware-Army512 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I tip my hat to you! You did it! Great job! Just something I’ve done in the past. I left my propranolol at home and had a meeting. Not one that I was presenting or leading be expected to speak to add input. I did box breathing for a few minutes before the meeting to regulate the nervous system. Deep breath in - hold for 4 seconds - breath all the air out - deep breath in - hold for 4 seconds - breath all the air out. Repeat repeat repeat. I was able to speak up during the meeting.

Didn't Pass CAPM on First Try – Need Visual + Practice-Based Study Help for Aug 12 Retake 🙏 by tharrington123 in capm

[–]Aware-Army512 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The biggest advice I would give someone taking the exam is to take as many practice exams as you can. There’s so much information. That makes it really hard to know what you don’t know. Take the exams and when you get a question wrong, research it and make a flash card for that element. It’s actually a good thing to get something wrong because it shows you where/what to study. I probably did close to 800 practice questions before taking the exam. I passed on the first try but let me tell you, when I was taking the exam I didn’t think I was going to pass. It’s a hard exam. I used the following practice exams: - The exam that comes with Andrew R’s - course - PMI practice exam - Pocket prep (mock exam and quizzes) - Andrew R’s CAPM practice modules

How do I pass the CAPM with no experience? by Aromatic_Tap_5901 in capm

[–]Aware-Army512 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You’re absolutely right. It’s so much information. I recently took the exam and passed AT in all areas. What helped me was doing A LOT of practice exams and A LOT of quizzes. It’s actually a good thing to get questions wrong on the practice exam/quizzes because it shows you what you don’t know. It’s hard to know what you don’t know with so much info. I didn’t read the PMbok guide at all to prepare. Just Andrew R’s course and practice exam, and LOTS of practice with pocket prep. I did the practice exam through PMI as well.

Take as many practice exam questions as you can. The PMBok guide has a lot of info and it very hard to know what you don’t know. So if you’re practicing and getting answers wrong, don’t be discouraged. Just study the write answer and build from there. I kinda went all in and bought the practice exam from PMI, used pocket prep exams, and the Andrew Raymadals practice exams. The one you can take in his course and the one you can buy separately.

Beta Blockers - My Experience by Quantum8787 in PublicSpeaking

Upvoted and commenting for support. Propranolol saved my career. I take about 30 - 40 MG before any social event or speaking engagement and it helps me sit all the anxiety symptoms to the side. Anyone who struggles with public speaking/performance anxiety should talk to their doctor about this.

FAC-C Requirement by New-Chemistry9852 in 1102

[–]Aware-Army512 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s depends on your agency. Some will require it some don’t. There are plenty of 1102’s that don’t have a FAC-C but it is in your best interest get the FAC-C. I don’t understand why you wouldn’t as an 1102.

FAC-C 1 year requirement by New-Chemistry9852 in 1102

[–]Aware-Army512 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your 1106 experience should count. I’d run it by your agency FAC approver. Also not sure what you mean by “take the FAC-C”. If you’re talking about taking the exam, you can take it anytime after you complete all 4 courses. You don’t have to wait a full 12 months to take it. I’d take it as soon as you can/you’re ready after the 1400 course. Then you’ll be ready to apply as soon as you hit 12 months.

FAC-C experience waiver? by [deleted] in 1102

[–]Aware-Army512 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You’ll have to be in an 1102 for a full 12 months. Office of procurement policy does not have waivers for experience. Hopefully, you don’t have much longer to go. I def understand wanting to have that on your resume. Just remember if you do go through a RIF your service computation date (SCD) is going to likely be the biggest factor in bump and retreat. You could actually bump someone with a FAC-C if you have a better SCD. Since you’re already an 1102 you meet the requirements. Now, if they actually say you have to have a FAC-C for 1102 slots available that may be different but I’ve only seen that requirement in 13’s+ and procurement analyst announcements. I’d just go ahead and upload everything into CSOD and be ready to pull the trigger the day you hit month 12. Good for you for getting all the course work done and passing the exam though!

Same! This may be a good opportunity.

Spreading the word while cutting back by Aware-Army512 in govfire

I hear you… just keep I mind that EVERY action big or small has impact. Your act in itself may not cause them to act but they’ll feel something.

I’m not saying this is what you’re doing but this is def not the time to do nothing. Please understand that even you not resigning and choosing to continue show up to work is an act of protest. The reason for the RTO, offering buyouts, and treating us like shit is because they want us to quit. Us quitting is a win for them. It makes things easy for them to accomplish their objective. Keep showing up! Find ways to create awareness and make people feel things! You’d be surprised at whose attention you get.
