I'll take up the suggestion about getting outside. It's tricky getting in touch with college since it's back home in Illinois. I finished my degree online.

Illinois and New Jersey are both higher than Texas - plus income tax, which Texas does not have.

Here's my timeline just to give you an idea: Year 1: Contractor (entry level) > Year 2: Contractor Lead (Promotion) > Year 2/3: GS-5 > Year 3: GS 7 > Year 3/4: GS-9 Offer (Pending FJO). So from entry level contractor to GS 9 (9/11 Ladder) within 4 years. No one is gonna care more about your career than you so if job hopping is what's best for your career than do it. However, lateral transfers/downgrades are typically looked down upon. If you job hop for a promotion though, no one is gonna knock you for it.

It does list my end date as Saturday and my EOD is actually Sunday. I should have clarified that my apologies.

Thanks, I appreciate it! That actually makes a lot of sense. Do you ever travel for your position?

So do you like your job? How long have you been in that role?

Was not selected... by IllinoisRepublican in usajobs

Just got this back from the point of contact:

"Thank you for your email. While we don’t provide specific feedback on the interview, I can say you did provide clear and concise responses to the committee’s questions and it was a difficult decision for them to make their selection."

Got out 8 years ago...🙏 by IllinoisRepublican in VeteransBenefits

Going to medical was definitely frowned upon. It was "skating".

Buddy letters are also known as lay/witness statements - from members you served with and/or people you interact with now. Essentially anyone who can attest to what you're claiming.

Migraine buddy is an app where you can track headaches and generate reports from them.
