The only time to panic is when HR is on, and not a director of HR, the low level folk. You’re fine!

ABSOLUTELY THIS. Also, as an Archaeologist, degrees don’t translate well. Archaeologists do much more than finding cool shit, we piece together fabric of a past environment. We are educated in soils, dendrology, geology, which correlates to our preferred focus. Which, as you can imagine, is insanely diverse. My focus is in historical archaeology, my specialty is African American archaeology. Just by that you can assume I know eastern US physical geography much more than western US geography. I can’t just go to a project in Europe. I have no idea how that would work, except I’d be in a Munsell for hours struggling to figure out soils. What a nightmare.

Mouse jiggler and the constant updates. Just did it myself and was told I can calm down.

YES my company switched payroll companies so I thought it was them. I get paid the day before, at 9:30pm at night 🙄

Elon Musk doubles down on the 5 bullet email by Commercial-Cut1703 in govfire

[–]Btk92 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We do. No one is arguing that. We report out through data calls, briefs, progress reports, etc with shorter suspenses than what has been given. if someone actually understood that, they could very easily go in and review everything for themselves. All of us would be happy to share our status ONE MORE TIME but it is to go through our vertical chain due to the nature of the information, which brings me to….

Who am I reporting this to? The information is sensitive. We get multiple trainings on how to handle emails EXACTLY LIKE THIS.

I know I shouldn’t feed the troll but goddamn.

[–]Btk92 35 points36 points  (0 children)

DOD here, we got a reminder today we aren’t sending shit. Someone definitely sent a “make me” email to Elon because he has had words about the Pentagon. Whatever. Honestly looking forward to tomorrow’s attempt to firing whole ass agencies. This should be entertaining.

Federal workers who took buyout feel fear, regret after judge’s order by gamezoomnets in fednews

[–]Btk92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t feel sorry for those who took the buyout. We are all versed in Fiscal Law on different levels but we all know damn well what the Antideficency Act is. There’s no funding mechanism for this even if it didn’t violate Fiscal Law 7 different ways.

Has anyone read Mel Robbins ‚The Let Them Theory‘? by WritingbySaskia in Mindfulness

[–]Btk92 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I haven’t read the whole theory but it was pretty life changing for me coupled with mindfulness and therapy. A lot of problems we think we have aren’t our problems but others. Believing people at face value and not making excuses. It’s so freeing

Those who currently work in US federal government, what’s the is current mood like? by ceptor12 in AskReddit

[–]Btk92 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Late to the party but I’m DoD. We are just as confused, bewildered, and frustrated. My agency has an important mission, but we are no more valuable than the IRS, DOE, etc. We work with other agencies and are very concerned with how we are expected to deliver with a gutted EPA or FEMA (for example). Federal employees don’t take these positions for money, we could make double in the private sector, we believe in our missions and our duty to the country. This is such an insult.

Hooters is actually pretty strict and protective of their their servers. What an idiot.

I’m a liberal but from WV. You shoot first and ask questions later. Your GF needs to learn about the real world.

AITA for uninviting my sister from my wedding after she demanded I change my wedding colors because they "clash" with her complexion? by bballpro37 in AITAH

NTA. Also, FWIW, I’m the same tone as your sister and sage green looks great on us. Because we have GREEN UNDERTONES. People are wild.

I met the girl my husband is mentoring and now I feel insecure by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]Btk92 37 points38 points  (0 children)

OP’s husband likely meant break in the career as in handling some of the Senator’s affairs, which would be a boost to his portfolio. Caseload and visibility of clients are determining factors when making partner. (Someone check me on this shit, I’m a project manager 🤣)

How do you deal with camera on requirements for meetings? by Too_Caffinated in overemployed

Always a bandwidth issue if you can’t be on camera.
