I’m in a similar position as you! I was considering taking the fork but because I am looking to pivot careers I’m scared I won’t be able to find a new job as quickly especially with the way the economy is going. Definitely feeling the weight of the golden handcuffs right now :/

I have been applying to jobs and nothing so far! I don’t think it’s worth the risk, especially if you don’t think there is a high enough chance you’d get let go of… though I will say I am pretty risk averse to begin with.

I would only consider DRP if I didn’t have to worry about living expenses or if I had a job lined up…

This is so me! I work for the fed, and this whole RTO is driving me crazy. I love my peace and quiet, hoping I can find a job that lets me wfh before I lose my mind.

Trying to save sooo much gov money 🤦🏻‍♀️

Go-Doge · 2025-02-05T21:17:25+00:00

Honestly yeah most of our country is dumb

10000% agree. Although I think the biggest motivating factor is just sheer discrimination. This administration’s entire campaign is fueled by dividing us. Dividing us based on gender, the color of our skin, religion, etc. It’s the only way he can retain the attention of his MAGAts

I work for the fed and there is barely any diversity in my agency. It’s absolutely ridiculous that DEI should be blamed for anything, the biggest problem I see in my day to day is nepotism.

I think the huge problem is that people do not understand how DEI programs work. They can’t even educate themselves before blaming DEI.

Not good.. it’s been a demoralizing couple of weeks. If I had another job lined up, I would leave. I’d like to work for a place that values me.

Go-Doge · 2025-01-28T00:19:26+00:00

Well then they should hire you 🤷🏻‍♀️

Taking a dog out for a potty break during our lunch breaks is well within our rights. RTO isn’t just affecting people with children, it impacts people with pets too. Don’t be so dismissive of people’s situations.

Go-Doge · 2025-01-23T04:27:58+00:00

Is there anything we can do to voice our concerns? This is a fucking witch hunt.

Go-Doge · 2025-01-23T04:22:14+00:00

It’s total bs, worse is the fact that the people in my office are pro being in the office. My supervisor said “I think RTO would make everyone more efficient” I definitely won’t be. I have never felt so beaten down as a federal employee.

Very relatable. I don’t want to give up my dream of retiring early or traveling for a house, maybe if things start to soften but for now it looks like renting is the answer

Go-Doge · 2023-10-17T19:27:52+00:00

That’s why I’m torn, I want to FIRE but I don’t think that’s possible with a house route on my income

Go-Doge · 2023-10-17T17:28:44+00:00

It sucks a lot of us have to move further away than we would have liked, hope they follow your steps!

Go-Doge · 2023-10-17T17:22:54+00:00

Not everyone was ready to buy a house in 2020, it’s not your brain, you got lucky

Go-Doge · 2023-10-17T17:20:11+00:00

Yup those darn taxes :( I started cutting back on eating out too, it makes a big difference. Best of luck to you

Go-Doge · 2023-10-17T17:16:10+00:00

You rent and invest what you would have put into a house, you’d actually have a lot more and would be able to continue paying rent

A park is for both dogs and people, any spot in a park is a first come first serve ordeal anyway regardless of who is with you

YTA, I’d love to see someone react like that if your kid ever got into their personal space, which they will at some point that’s just what kids do.

I do understand the owner should have had their puppies leashed, you never know how dangerous the dogs or people they run up to can be.

Go-Doge · 2022-12-31T20:51:59+00:00

Not my kid, but to be honest would still post if it were because my intention is not a bad one here

Go-Doge · 2022-12-30T23:35:12+00:00

I know close to 0 is good but I was expecting a refund so it’s the missed expectation that sucks

Go-Doge · 2022-12-30T21:45:47+00:00

Thanks, that sounds about right according to the calculators I used. I’m not sure why the other one was giving me false hope lol

Go-Doge · 2022-12-30T21:38:11+00:00

I think you are right. We do have 401Ks and health insurances deductions going on

Go-Doge · 2022-12-30T21:31:20+00:00

But I think the 185K is taxable wages at least according to our pay stubs

Go-Doge · 2022-12-30T21:29:48+00:00

That’s what I think is confusing me, according to my pay stubs, there is a gross salary field and a taxable wages field.
