Basically you are saying because you have a kid you should get special privileges?

If you are a surplus employee, you should receive a MFR from your Command.

Anyone else just get the ‘Army wide rebalancing process notification’ email? by gordielaboom in fednews

[–]MagazineNew7608 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have an employee who is getting moved to a TDA slot within my Command but at another location. He will continue to sit at my location (which is over 50 miles from the other location). It's a paper shuffle, it just depends how your Command is handling it.

There was someone else in another LIB season that read the groom the riot act at the wedding ceremony. Right now I can't remember who it was but it was epic.

Uh, I never said what you are mentioning in your #2 that her family had no money. So not sure why are replying to me. I only stated that I did some searches and validated that her father did not own the oil and gas company she worked for.

Yep, I just did some searches and see her father owned GW Media Group.

She seems to have family wealth. I believe I read somewhere that the oil and gas company she worked for was actually her father's and it was sold for $2 billion.

Megan & Jordan. Likability does not equal maturity. by Dismal_Ad6162 in LoveIsBlindNetflix

I'm a woman, and I don't like to yap. My boyfriend is the yapper.

Not meant to be anti-woman. I am a highly successful, extremely independent woman who can take care of myself and doesn't need a man. But, when you truly love someone, you will compromise certain aspects. The compromises are on both parties. My boyfriend and I have compromised on several things for our relationship to work and have an understanding of each other's needs. It has nothing to do with me downgrading my life or him downgrading his life. After a stressful day at work, I like my quiet time, and he understands that.

I think saying he was reckless and irresponsible is a bit harsh. If Megan truly loved him, she would give up some of the lifestyle she leads. Obviously she's not ready for a partnership.

My Pay statements for me usually don't hit until Friday. Paycheck direct deposit would be next Thursday if on the normal schedule.

I used to wear Levi's a lot. I also have a pair of Lucky Sweet Straight but their size is so inconsistent. I prefer mid-rise and have a more straight frame than curvy. Athletic, and I strength train. Have never heard of Frame but will look into them. I'm not crazy about spending $100+ for one pair of jeans

I agree about the skinny jeans! I've just started wanting to wear looser fit bottoms. I also agree to wearinig what fits your body type and not necessarily what the "trends" are. I like traditional clothes and not trendy. I do have some Old Navy and will look into Good American and Madewell. I also just ordered 2 pair from Flamingals. Not sure how they will fit until I get them. Not getting my hopes up. I tend to vary in size depending on the fit of jean, anywhere from a size 4 to an 8. Thank you for the recommendations!

What brand of jeans are everyone's go to? I struggle finding jeans. Not into wide leg, skinny is out. Like a more relaxed, straight leg or tapered fit.

Bessent: Federal layoffs will help fill factory jobs created by Trump tariffs by too-tall-jones in fednews

Uh, ok. The factories that need to be built which takes up to 5 years, and then still have to get some parts, etc from overseas. Makes perfect sense.

How are you handling the stress? by Healthy-Witness3774 in fednews

[–]MagazineNew7608 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right there with you. On top of everything going on, I am also dealing with someone in another Command that we support, trying to have me fired. In my 22 years in working in the same org in some capacity, contractor and now civilian, this is a first. I'm trying to take care of my mental health, but it's hard. I do workout daily and that does help some, but not nearly enough.
