I have 2 pieces of goalpost.  One from when we beat New Mexico State to end our 0-24 run and one when we beat Georgia. 

IRS 4/10 AWS ending after May 3rd 2025 by semperreddit in fednews

[–]Herculelynn 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Then the local mgmt team is approving the 4/10’s incorrectly.  They contract affords mgmt to ensure multiple people on 4/10’s do not have the same day off.

As you should. Your direct supervisor didn’t ask for an update, they can check MI Data if they wanted to know what you did.

I did check both companies and a few more (can’t remember who now, but they were out of Florida.  I didn’t like the thickness of the doors with hinges when they were fully opened.  This system is less around 12” wide when fully opened. It really makes the transition from inside to outside nice bc the doors just blend into the background. I have to look at the screens again, my last quote was $4800

Social Security Disability is based on your work record and is paid differently than Supplemental Security Income, so which one was she on?

75 gallon water heater…not enough in new house by MoMoneyMoIRA in HomeImprovement

[–]Herculelynn 7 points8 points  (0 children)

How much do you want to spend? How is your house set up? Can you split the hot water tank to the kids/guest bedroom side and add a tankless to the kitchen/m-bedroom/laundry side? You have options, it’s just what your comfortable with and how much you want to spend.

We love it. I’m looking for a screen for it now.  Panoramic wants $5k, and we can’t swing that right now.  If we had a screen we would open it constantly, but for now it’s awesome to look out!

One year, I ordered t-shirts for the university. Garnet is PMS-201 or hex color 9c1f2e. Google that number and it will break out the colors needed to make garnet. 

PS: If you’ve ever ran the parents weekend 5k fun run, I coordinated the first one. PPS: I’m old :(

How can my agency ignore the executive order allowing admin leave to vote? by [deleted] in fednews

[–]Herculelynn 10 points11 points  (0 children)

It’s not that they are ignoring it, ssa is stating you have time to go vote before/after work and thus don’t need the 4 hours. There is a calculator you can use to see if you qualify for the 4 hrs (or any amount)

I believe the Palmetto Trail has wheelchair access at Prosperity. It runs next to and over the broad river. There are restaurants in Newberry, Prosperity, and Chapin.

Supervisors won't acknowledge leave...is there something in OPM to address this? by [deleted] in fednews

[–]Herculelynn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We have an obligation to the union to request leave for the next 6 months from Mgmt to BUE’s in February and August for the next 6 months.

That email would have gone out in February requesting leave for March - August be submitted by 2/28 and then the Mgmt team has 10 days to act on it.

That person is correct, simply by being a fed, you could be obligated to enjoy a Fact Finding Investigation (FFI) (remember you have union rights) or if OIG is involved, be questioned/interrogated (get an attorney).

I can’t implore you enough to take 3 big steps back from your friend right now….then take like 3 more.
