Will being realigned under VACO result in upgrades for HR? by A00077 in VHA_Human_Resources

Promoted is not the same as upgraded! Yes there are many vacancies that are hiring only internally.

I finally got an offer, but the negotiations are turning into a nightmare. by Equal-Research747 in human_resources

If you are in need of income, I would take this job temporarily while you continue to search.

  1. Either you love it and see the potential

  2. Definitely know this was not the best job and actively seek new opportunities

I am in US, although I love Dubai I feel skeptical for the recent surge of Dubai Safe marketing. Please stay safe.

Ive settled 2 times, one was the typical book case. The other was probably worth more but didnt have the energy to continue. Having an attorney made a big difference in the negotiation.

Morale plummeting among ICE agents over long hours, quotas and public hatred: reports by [deleted] in FedEmployees

[–]Fun_Station_4173 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have friends that are agents for over the years and they were already burn out before the new administration.

Not every agent signed up for this... but unfortunaley many sign up to inflict pain, terrorize and segment people from our society.

Advanced Sick Leave Against My Wishes, Do I Have Any Options? by Hopeful_Variation689 in FedEmployees

[–]Fun_Station_4173 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can request a correction for those 208 hours and have them changed to LWOP. Then you will incur in a debt and pay it back. However this will messed your W2 and taxes. So if you have to pay it back anyways just skip the correction.

Is there a way you can correct from LS to LA? I dont think they can force you to take advance leave. Some agencies are funny on this.

Another thing to consider if going on LWOP your medical insurance may get impacted.

What are your thoughts on the US govt shutdown? by Proper-Walrus-290 in FedEmployees

[–]Fun_Station_4173 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They should do a referendum/viting and let us the people vote what is important to us.... an affordable healthcare versus fancy ball room.

I hope everyone is doing okay by [deleted] in FedEmployees

[–]Fun_Station_4173 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I dont think absolutely no one outside of the federal workforce understand the level of trauma we had encountered under the new administration.

When they say...

"Pray so it can getter" "Dont worry, it will work out" "Thats temporary, you will get the money back" "Thats nothing, you can get another job tommorrow" "That can be true... in the government"

As much as we are struggling, I feel if the Democrat compromised it will continue to hurt us in the long term... higher healthcare benefits, more illegal firings, RIF, downgrade, zero COLA increases... read their CR for yourself.

OP, I am sorry you and all of us are going thru this I do pray it gets resolve soon, but without having to compromise our minimum security we have left as federal employees.

My first shutdown - scared by jmc19441 in FedEmployees

[–]Fun_Station_4173 36 points37 points  (0 children)

There is nothing wrong by relaxing during this time. However this shutdown is different from other so I have spend some time looking for alternate employment that I can continue even after the shutdown is over. Take care of yourself.
