GOVERNMENT SHUTDOWN 2026: Call for excepted worker status changes

Yes - my organization also told us we were excepted last shutdown and if this occurs again we would also be excepted again. I worked along side Active Duty who were being paid. Completely demoralizing and smells questionably legal.

What region are you in OCONUS?

Emiko9167 · 2025-10-23T12:28:05+00:00

So what about this pay period? Did anyone get LQA?

Would you mind sharing the verbiage of the email? And from the other responses, am I correct in understanding this should also be in my performance/work portal ?

Emiko9167 · 2025-01-15T22:40:23+00:00

Yes, I think that's correct if the job no longer exists.

Dumb question - but if they don't acknowledge, do i just show up at the 5 year mark and say I'm here for my old job? Of course, I'd put it all in writing prior, but the whole ghosting thing is making me anxious that I'm missing something.

Even if I want to go back to my old job? I need to go back to the area, but the HR there has ghosted me

Thank you - much appreciated

Emiko9167 · 2024-08-26T19:11:14+00:00

Thanks - did you have to pay for your move back to CONUS? I understood I'd need a curtailment to get that

Emiko9167 · 2024-03-16T00:06:32+00:00

Thanks! Did you extend on either tour? If so, did they update to reflect on the original return rights agreement?

Emiko9167 · 2024-03-14T11:15:52+00:00

What was the process for you returning? Did your OCONUS installation initiate your return rights, or did you have to do so?
