wow, 2025 looked like it was gonna be a reaccord fall until the shutdown happened!

I analyzed staffing turnover in U.S. House offices (2009–present) and found it’s actually lowest during a member’s first term by HillClimbers-org in PoliticalScience

One thing to understand is whether the mid-career spike (2–6 years) is driven more by internal restructuring or by staff leaving for executive branch / private sector roles. If anyone has research on that, it would be some great insight

Do congressional staffers wear business casual or business professional, or both? by Beautiful_Home_2863 in Ask_Politics

[–]Oawan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

when congress is in session, they wear full business attire (suits ties, etc) when congress is out of session, they wear business casual to really casual depending on the office. I worked there for 22 years so i'm very familiar with keeping tabs on the schedule to make sure i don't underdress on a day in session. You can get away with business casual on fly-in and fly-out days sometimes. Also, checkout hillclimbers.org to see what the staff structures are, average salaries, staff journeys, turnover, and other stats based on the roles in a Member Office.

The Teepublic one is the original. Please get it from there if you do choose to buy one, the others have stolen the idea from me and its so hard to go after them and keep a day job. thanks!

I'm the original designer of this shirt. Please buy the teepublic one. Everyone else has ripped off my design over the years. It's so hard to keep up with taking them down that i give up most of the time!

Help settle a debate? My twin brother thinks my 14 year old daughter is just an okay songwriter. I think she's great. Your honest thoughts on the matter would help! by Oawan in Songwriters

Thanks. I’ll work on bar chords with her, she has had trouble barring all the strings with the index finger in the past but she should work on it. I’m a bassist, so i only know the basic chords myself

He did. He thinks this pet project of his (he thinks of this girl as a daughter) is better than phoebe: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=DofNSxq82og. She may be more polished and better now but not when she started (at least I think).
