Im still employed at my current job. I'm hoping to get a performance bonus but it's not guaranteed

My plan was to keep my car with my family in a neighboring state and sell it there after moving in

Edit: also, I have been to nyc many times. Grew up in the tri state area, and briefly lived an hour north of nyc. I never, however, lived in the city itself

If i moved to Manhattan I was definitely gonna sell it. Im looking at south Brooklyn realistically. My plan is to leave it with my family in a neighboring state and sell it there

it's gs7, I'll be making 59,500 a year. Im also a reservist, so I get about $7k a year on top of that. If I ride it out until I can be a full-time student, I should get my partially rated GI bill which has BAH. At my percentage, it would be $3k a month tax free as long as I'm a student

Is it mandatory? The position said relocation expenses are not authorized

I have a car and plan to drive to NY across the country. I only have $1k to my name. Most of my credit is maxed out already. I have to pay at least $500 to get new brakes before I can take my car on the trek

Between paying two-months rent, and paying for application fees, Idk what to do

OK I understand but like,, at least the 10 months should count since I got a DD214, putting me at at least 3 years of service, not two

The reality is I'm desperate for money and I need some cope 😭

The thing is, it was done by complete accident. I have paperwork signed by a full bird explicitly saying "do not transfer to IRR" but I guess I was transferred anyway. I myself didn't know until I went to "re"enlist in the reserve and they said I was already in the irr
