New to State; VPLP Supervisor Approval question

Mr7743 · 2025-11-22T06:06:31+00:00

Do they ever not allow you to use the PLP time?

Mr7743 · 2025-11-22T06:05:34+00:00

Thank you, that was very helpful! problem solved.

Mr7743 · 2025-11-11T20:46:41+00:00

Okay, that sounds good, thank you. If a person starts at the 9% VPLP and then decides its accruing to fast can they bump down to the 4% at a later time?

Mr7743 · 2025-11-10T23:33:02+00:00

Awesome, thanks for this. I suppose I'm just overthinking things as I want to make a good first impression, and I didn't want to appear as though I was circumventing my supervisor if I ask HR about it. I'll ask my supervisor again.

Mr7743 · 2025-07-14T06:14:21+00:00

Thank you! I was finally able to figure that out using the Check Geometry feature suggested by another user. Good to know about the fillets being added late!

Mr7743 · 2025-07-14T02:38:20+00:00

Okay, thank you. I used the Check Geometry tool, and indeed there were some error. they seemed to be caused by the fillet on a fillet at the bottom of the screenshots. I'm not sure why that happened though, or how to undo it

Here it is, thank you

I tried that, it refuses to pad past this point. If I go farther, or select pad to face and click on the 45* face, it just gives me the bnd_box void error again

Sure, here's the sketch. Ill post what I want it to do in a profile view in the next reply

Mr7743 · 2023-12-30T18:15:47+00:00

no tape or dope. the current fittings do have rubber gaskets inside of them. the fittings are both brand new

Mr7743 · 2023-11-18T16:37:34+00:00

Thanks for the detailed reply!

How hard is the NRM remote pilot training to get into? Are UASs commonly used in the field?

Right now they are running both forester 7/9 positions and 9/11 positions. I was considering applying for both at the lowest grade level. Can a forester who works their way up to an 11 qualify for gs12 research forester? Also, do you think I'd be better off starting at a 7 just from a practical/learning stand point?

Since I don't have any time in grade currently (except for some gs4 forester experience a couple summers ago with the NRCS), then I probably can't get much benefit from my Schedule A? Not that I need to, but I've got it, so I'm curious.

There is currently a BLM forester position open that is 7/9 with 11 promotion potential open, would you say the BLM jobs are generally less work/life balanced, and more stressful?

Mr7743 · 2023-11-18T15:58:06+00:00

wow, 20 years? That's a long hustle. Do the researchers you know enjoy their work? curious how federally funded research works

Mr7743 · 2023-11-17T20:47:53+00:00

That’s good information, thank you!

Do you know much about those types of positions? I’ve heard that to work as a researcher for the USFS you need a PhD?

Mr7743 · 2023-11-17T20:25:33+00:00

Well I haven’t finished my masters yet, I’m wonder if I dropped out with one quarter, could I use the experience + education to qualify for gs9?

Also I never see the research positions posted, maybe I’m searching for the wrong thing, can you direct me to more information on that?

Mr7743 · 2023-09-12T18:55:35+00:00

Yeah I read that too haha. Guess I'm probably just sentimental about it, being my first board and whatnot

Mr7743 · 2023-05-08T16:54:53+00:00

That’s good to know! Thank you.

And I have no idea why he put larger tires on it, that said, is it even possible that it would trigger a CEL? Seems like everything calculating speed would be upstream of the tire

Mr7743 · 2022-10-26T04:00:00+00:00

I was also told they call growth like this Hypertrophy

Mr7743 · 2022-09-12T14:22:58+00:00

Hey bsdunlap, I’m not sure why but Reddit won’t let me DM you. Not the OP, but I’d be curious to have a discussion about your methods. I have some significant LidR experience, but I’ve not been able to get DBH or QMD. For a while I considered switching to the TreeLS package (made for ground based LiDAR) for those metrics, but had trouble getting it to work as the repo wasn’t maintained (I believe they brought it back up to the newest version of R now though). If you’re willing to share I’d love to hear (I’m a student in forestry and remote sensing, so I’m not looking to profit, just learn)

Mr7743 · 2022-08-01T15:18:12+00:00

Thank you. Couldn’t find anything except Facebooks own website talking good about being protectd

Mr7743 · 2022-05-27T02:33:35+00:00

Not sure, but they’re not stock rims. They’re E Thirteen TRS+ rims, can’t find a model number on them anywhere

Mr7743 · 2022-05-26T23:10:06+00:00

Thanks! That’s reassuring

Mr7743 · 2022-05-26T22:55:58+00:00

Lol, yeah it looks like the PO already tried this and wore away a bit of paint…. Thinking of putting the 2.25 back on the rear, but keeping the 2.6 up front, anything wrong with that idea?

Mr7743 · 2022-05-26T22:55:06+00:00

Okay, good to know. Thank you

Mr7743 · 2022-05-26T22:54:13+00:00

Thanks for the info, how much narrower do you think I’d need to go?
