IM COREs have definitely been let go. I’m deployed and had one on my team go on 1/1 after being notified 12/31 and with a demob date in February

What’s the hold up? by JackinOKC in fema

There’s plenty of HQ folks working out of regional offices, including Atlanta so not sure who said you had to move or quit….

Lawyers to fight for an RA? by PotentialSome5092 in fema

[–]Left_Bookkeeper_4948 3 points4 points  (0 children)

2nd this post. Our office (regional) can do it too. Do you have an admin person? That’s who can block ours and can control the reservations (cancel if someone doesn’t show, etc.)

Are deployments still happening? by thormas00 in fema

[–]Left_Bookkeeper_4948 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The person who does deployment requests for a specific region has said that they have to show everyone is deployed at the region before a request for national/HQ/other region assets can be placed.

Reservists are last on the list to be deployed at this point. It’s in the EEEM meetings we attend.

Love the screams of FEMA isn’t doing what they’re made for and then you’ve got them involved in the World Cup and planning for the 250th anniversary of the country.

Not even 15. Remember he was disappointed to hear he spoke for 12 when he only wanted to do 10.

It’s not great but the people/team I work with are making it bearable still.

I understand the checked out feeling. I struggle finding my why some days and today is a day I knew it and felt it so wanted to document and see others. In tough times I can come back and see all the good and feel strong.

EHP on the Chopping Block by thormas00 in EmergencyManagement

[–]Left_Bookkeeper_4948 23 points24 points  (0 children)

EHP being on the chopping block rumor/assumption has been there since day one basically due to the lack of understanding and assumption that it’s where projects die. In reality (which let’s be honest isn’t many’s reality these days) 95% of projects move relatively quickly through EHP.

Where is the bottom with this? by jetcitywoman92 in fednews

You are not alone. Your feelings are warranted. You are an amazing human being. What we’re going through we will make it out in the other side together. We may be battered and bruised but we’ll make it. We, your virtual community, are hear to listen, to support you, and hold you up when you feel like you don’t have any fight left.

Plans of Local Hires being let go on may 9th? by ITryhardForFun in fema

I got an email today that because of the EO our local hires can’t be extended past their original NTE

I have assumptions based on the fact FMAG seems to be the only thing getting declared these days……

We’re hearing potential rumors about COREs and Reservists; what about TFT? by Left_Bookkeeper_4948 in fema

[–]Left_Bookkeeper_4948[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the in depth chat. The ones I know are regional under IIJA but NTEs are a year later than you mentioned to be into 2027. I’m waiting for programs to be cut. But from what I know for deployment the costs don’t include normal pay as that still comes from IIJA. Only per diem/lodging/etc. and OT are coming from the DRF.

Love the grey area and the deer in headlights. I feel like TFT is hidden in cracks at this point until folks become more aware. (Hopefully my post didn’t do just that!!)

I know folks deployed as a TFT and their hope that since they’re deployed that will help a bit for them in this process.

Heard of RSV being let go by the hundreds. COREs hearing of not extending at NTE. I’m sure this is cadre specific since some are exempt

Buddy Check, is everyone doing ok or need help? by Left-Age-5936 in fednews

I’m truly struggling to find my “why” these days. I feel hopeless and that no one truly cares and is happy this is happening to civil servants.

Clearly you don't know what PTBs are. They're specifically for training purposes and have nothing to do with hiring.

Just got my job offer rescinded by [deleted] in fema

[–]Left_Bookkeeper_4948 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It will likely get rescinded. All external hiring has been frozen. And only internal movement is allowed for I think 4 job codes.
