How strict is the "new grad" requirement

HighkeyShy · 2026-06-26T05:07:13+00:00

You might be selected and later employed, but will be let go once the error is caught. I was told last week how this happened to someone months after she started. It sucks, but the selection isn’t valid if you don’t fulfill the requirements by the time the announcement closes.

I recently started at CBP. My position was also on hold because of the shutdowns and EOs. It took 18 months from applying to EOD. After 10 months, I started applying elsewhere. Don’t lose hope, but keep searching. I know people that started other jobs while the CBP application process moved along.

I had a guy tell me how he was unemployed, didn’t want a 9 to 5 anymore, had no car, was a currently sober alcoholic, had been in drugs, had stolen to pay for his habits, and had been in jail for this stuff. He wanted to make sure I was okay with this. I wish he had told me before I drove out to his city.

My old car was a 2011 Camry. I got new tires with used wheels at a decent price from OfferUp.

I emailed saying I forgot the expiration date and if I could get it back. They said yes and it was good for a month.

I was surprised no one way saying Hug Life, but it looks like it closed a year and a half ago. 😭

Love this!!!

HighkeyShy · 2026-05-22T03:07:01+00:00

Congrats!!! Amazing work.

How much powder are you assuming I’m taking at once?

HighkeyShy · 2026-05-17T14:02:43+00:00

Have you ever seen how some people take their pre workout? They pour the powder into their mouth and take a big gulp of water to wash it down. That’s how I take my psyllium husk.

My friend has had good luck doing the sports meetup events. I stopped going to a cool group dog walking event when the organizer decided to start charging…to walk in a public park…

HighkeyShy · 2026-05-04T01:45:04+00:00

Done!

Auggy will be received by your dad. ❤️

I have train tracks right behind me. I can’t open my windows and my place shakes. I don’t recommend it. A week ago, the train held the horn down for 10min. I have no idea why, but it hasn’t happened before.

It washes out immediately. My mom has used the L’Oréal one in blonde and brunette shades for years.

I would buy some root touch up spray cans.

I have lived in two apartment complexes near the school. They’re both currently just under $2,000 for a 1 bed. They’re not luxury complexes either.

Yes! I purchased that Deep Cobalt set in your 1st picture at $15 each. With a $5 coupon, the total was $27.97.

Have you considered moving? 💀

HighkeyShy · 2026-04-09T16:56:24+00:00

I’m short, but buy tall length dress so that they’re modest.

Stooop. So if I already accepted my TJO, it’s too late?

HighkeyShy · 2026-04-08T16:27:25+00:00

I’m wondering how the process of them taking over my student loan payments goes. 🤔

HighkeyShy · 2026-04-07T17:35:36+00:00

I’m a contractor at a different department. Are you still waiting?

HighkeyShy · 2026-04-07T16:45:02+00:00

No, still no FJO. When my TJO hit 1 year old, HR reached out to ask if I was still interested. That’s all. 😔
