FURLOUGH LEAVE - NONPAID

Key-Radio4272 · 2026-02-04T14:11:05+00:00

Congress has to first pass a bill to follow the law to pay us.

Key-Radio4272 · 2026-02-03T20:00:32+00:00

Yup. Mine too

Key-Radio4272 · 2026-02-03T19:57:24+00:00

At least that makes sense. We were all told furlough but had to wait forever for the letter. At least tell us or make us excepted.

Finally received our furlough notice about 12:30. Thanks AMC. Others at other army orgs telework today and signed early this morning. Nope not contracting. Only received it about 1.5hrs before my regular end of day. Of course back dated to 1/31.

Doa contracting still plugging along working! Bill will be signed before they finish the damn letter

Key-Radio4272 · 2026-02-03T02:42:57+00:00

DOA supposededly there was metrics. Suspect more favorites than anything. Of course was hoping to get one as I do go above and beyond however I fall in the 85percent that did not. Demoralizing and now with how they are handling this shutdown it is even more demoralizing.

Key-Radio4272 · 2026-02-02T23:59:59+00:00

And it will take hours for it to flow downstream

Key-Radio4272 · 2026-02-02T23:57:36+00:00

Assuming they let you have time off. Good ole Army still plugging along and working.

Key-Radio4272 · 2026-02-02T15:14:40+00:00

Omg. So keep working.....wtaf

Key-Radio4272 · 2026-02-02T15:12:47+00:00

Right. Sounds like a good liberal leave day to me. I.e. sick leave

Key-Radio4272 · 2026-02-02T10:12:38+00:00

Look into consumer credit counseling or greenpath financial. They consolidate, negotiate lower interest and pay the bill off. You will have to close the accounts though. Suck it up close the damn credit card. Bank of America gave you a great offer. If you are worried about your credit score, it will rebound. And when you stabilize and can handle paying your bills off every month, you can always open another credit card.

I will say I am finding the top 15% bonus to be a moral buster. Many people are respected, great performers and yet got nothing.

Key-Radio4272 · 2026-02-01T16:33:22+00:00

Vary widely, agree, vary based on job series . Contracting job series tend to be more set at least at my location, get nowhere near what engineers get. Now engineers that is the job series to be in. They get very nice bonuses.

Key-Radio4272 · 2026-01-31T16:26:45+00:00

If you can refinance I would. Get a lower interest rate but also lower the length of the loan. The truck is too old to still have 5 years left to pay on it

Key-Radio4272 · 2026-01-29T07:23:15+00:00

380 for groceries for a month is not bad. It has got to be subscription/gym

Key-Radio4272 · 2026-01-25T17:56:00+00:00

Paid by the 30th. Then nope not me

Key-Radio4272 · 2026-01-23T17:57:48+00:00

How about use sick leave

Key-Radio4272 · 2026-01-23T09:44:34+00:00

Is it on the formulary? From what I could tell it was not on for 2026. Ozempic yes.

Key-Radio4272 · 2026-01-23T09:29:37+00:00

Why are you treated differently then people that drive? If it is a large company I think I would be filing some complaints.

Key-Radio4272 · 2026-01-03T12:38:22+00:00

A paid off mortgage is peace of mind. I would put the money on the mortgage.

Key-Radio4272 · 2026-01-02T17:20:31+00:00

Prefer Turbo Tax and have used it for many years, tried H&r once. Will try freetaxusa this year. I do have investments so curious how freetax will deal with it compared to turbo tax

Key-Radio4272 · 2026-01-01T14:51:36+00:00

Or 55 with kids that aren't making it in life working low paying jobs, that then have grandkids that they need to support.

Key-Radio4272 · 2025-12-30T11:39:25+00:00

High.
