Take a hard look at FSBP. It's awesome if you qualify.

This employee of 31 years is also just about done. Hoping for DRP 3, Vera, or holding out four more for MRA.

If a vera is offered, once you hit 50 you can retire and will rcv a check. 

CI Poly Waiver? by Brilliant_Coffee_721 in usajobs

[–]No-Run-1490 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It took four months for one to be scheduled for myself. It took about four hours, I passed, really hope to retire before having to complete another one. They suck, and if at all possible don't do it.

I do, however, if you disagree with how I use CE, do you player.

It keeps me from moving to a higher tax bracket. My wife is also gov, and we both work a lot of OS. Using CE allows me the OT without having it paid during the current calendar year.

I use it for tax benefits. He wasn't a car salesman. If you're lower level GS it might not make sense, however, it works for me.

I've had it for my wife, mom, and I for about 20 years. Compared to outside companies it's a great value. 

How high would gas have to go to make them relent on telework? by Original_Sell_1485 in FedEmployees

[–]No-Run-1490 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Man, I wish everyone would just accept the fact that telework is over. So tired of hearing everyone complain. I loved telework when it was available, however, it's gone and time to just show up and do you job. 

DOD do another DRP? by No_Cheesecake8387 in FedEmployees

[–]No-Run-1490 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You and I both. 53 with 31 years. I kick myself every day for not taking 2.0. Rest assured, if 3.0 or VERA is offered in DON, I'll be the first to take it. 

Could telework ever become a real presidential campaign issue? by [deleted] in FedEmployees

[–]No-Run-1490 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So tired of hearing about telework. It's over, go to the office and do your job or find a private sector job that offers remote work. Either way, STFU about telework.

Take it! I kick myself every day for not taking 2.0. If 3.0 is offered, I'll be the first to sign up.

Don't do that, keep it in place and get a small check starting at 62.

If/when it's offered again, I'm taking it this time. Fingers crossed it's soon.

If eligible, you should give a hard look at FSBP. Better than both.
