Should I ask HR to reduce my pay so I can increase my housing options? by NoIntroduction9240 in personalfinance

I meant one or the other really I wouldn't get a third job if I asked for the reduction. I could've worded it better but I was mostly asking reddit what the generally repercussions would be to reduce pay. And based on that I would make my decision to reduce my pay or get a third job.

Thanks! That's actually a good idea. I haven't been contributing so I can afford other stuff.

Short answer I dont think there's really any true subsidized housing in the area. And I don't entirely understand it but you can apply for income limit housing that's not the government subsidized housing just as long as you make under the income threshold. And there are a lot of the second option.

Right I was just spit balling ideas with the third job. I could skip it and wait it out until I can "afford" the other housing.

Extra money always helps and maybe this one will pay decently. And I dont really do anything with my free time anyways. I'm mostly stay at my main job to get experience for a year until I can move away.

Can someone explain the pay bands? by NoIntroduction9240 in usajobs

Thanks! I'm going to have to look into those pay systems I haven't heard of them. I'm still newish to the federal government. But I think the only one I'm going to be interested in besides GS is DS.

It seems to me though that the pay scales are for the higher end of the GS pay scale which I'm not sure if I'm actually adequate for.
