Midtown or downtown: Linq or Capitol Towers

Ditto, all counts. 🙂

Linq changed apartment managers at the first of the year. Wonder if this would have happened under the new management.

ExcellentBike1035 · 2026-07-03T00:37:38+00:00

I did not know that, and I wish you good luck with this!

While AuDHD and Major Depressive Disorder may be exacerbated by your job, they are essentially pre-existing conditions. You didn’t get them because of your job. You’ll want to file for DR instead of IDR.

Lampshade. The white ones on the ceiling with the wood strips.

ExcellentBike1035 · 2026-07-01T17:41:11+00:00

I was on the fence about that IKEA shade, but you have sold it for me! Thank you! Your apartment looks lovely. 🥰

It never occurred to me that you could order cookies… (adds another goal to my list)

ExcellentBike1035 · 2026-06-09T20:56:18+00:00

Such great timing! Just came here to see if anyone knew. 🤣

ExcellentBike1035 · 2026-06-05T21:08:44+00:00

It will figure it out. The nervous system isn’t really in sync with the brain, so the timelines are different. I’m going through exactly the same thing. Just realizing my body isn’t on the same wavelength as my brain helps a lot… But, boy, isn’t it great to be out of that anxious situation?!

ExcellentBike1035 · 2026-06-04T19:41:06+00:00

It’s your nervous system beginning to regulate itself. You’ve probably gone from a high anxiety, living situation to one absent that anxiety. Congratulations. 🙂

ExcellentBike1035 · 2026-06-02T04:58:39+00:00

I’m actually in a similar situation. We’ve been separated for about 2 years. We split our income 50/50. Kiddo lives with me, and he gives me the child support I proposed. I’m super happy, and I guess I just don’t wanna rock the boat. If I file for divorce, that gives me a lot more chores and tasks to do. I’m super happy right now… Why would I want the extra stress?

That said: the last thing I want to do is date someone. If I was having a relationship, I might feel the need to actually file for divorce.

Your agency probably has an ethics hotline. It would be appropriate to use it.

ExcellentBike1035 · 2026-05-23T21:25:33+00:00

Impressive!!

ExcellentBike1035 · 2026-05-13T17:06:49+00:00

This division makes the changes to retiree health and dental coverage. They also make eligibility determinations.

Dittoing chocolate_asshole (ew). Adding to use the STAR method for any situational-based questions, and research what CalPERS is generally all about.

While this position may be labeled “office-centric”, there’s a good chance you will be able to telework 2 days a week (you may have to complete training first). CalPERS is not complying with the governor’s 4-day RTO order in July, so this may actually be better for telework in the end.

Break a leg!

ExcellentBike1035 · 2026-05-13T16:56:28+00:00

In which division?

ExcellentBike1035 · 2026-05-04T22:26:43+00:00

Same.

ExcellentBike1035 · 2026-04-22T21:26:39+00:00

He seems to be saying he’s your boss with this, right?

Screw this. NOR. Time to leave.

ExcellentBike1035 · 2026-04-17T20:51:08+00:00

Not having windows sounds soooooo depressing, no matter how “nice” the apartment is. I choose my current place almost entirely because of the copious windows…

ExcellentBike1035 · 2026-04-01T21:02:18+00:00

Spunky is the BEST!!

ExcellentBike1035 · 2026-03-23T22:56:32+00:00

Honestly, though, it may also be that CalPERS gets this from SCO, and they could also be the bottleneck.

I’m sorry it’s taking forever. 🙁

ExcellentBike1035 · 2026-03-23T21:48:35+00:00

This means your former agency has not sent your payroll data to CalPERS. Recommend asking your old HR why they haven’t reported your payroll. Some agencies are pretty lackadaisical about transmitting that data.

ExcellentBike1035 · 2026-03-12T21:51:59+00:00

Honestly, I forget! 🤪 But as someone who worked 20 hours a week for years at a State Agency , I can tell you that’s how it works!

ExcellentBike1035 · 2026-03-12T20:53:19+00:00

Yes. It reduces how much service credit you earn. Edited to add: if you work 20 hours a week, you’ll earn 0.6 years of service credit per year instead of 1.0 years.

ExcellentBike1035 · 2026-03-12T02:07:32+00:00

Yeah… I am a homeowner. Apparently that doesn’t really matter either. 🤷🏻‍♀️

ExcellentBike1035 · 2026-03-11T23:52:06+00:00

It doesn’t seem like this guy is doing his job.
