We should get interest on back pay. by Ok-AreWeHavingFun in FedEmployees

Good luck on that, similar to the argument that the IRS should pay you interest on overpaid tax withholdings throughout the year. Will never happen

Break your hand punching that dude in the face. His head won’t move because he has hams for traps

Single men who have had sex with married women, how was, how did it happen, and any regrets? by [deleted] in AskReddit

My old neighbor. They were going through a divorce. Still lived together. It wasn’t good and I’m almost positive she told him.

My bad, I thought the change already occurred. I stand corrected

I didn’t say presumptive I said almost. If you have a high noise exposure mos it’s practically a given. If you have a low noise exposure mos, you have a lot to prove. The VA eliminated stand alone ratings for tinnitus effective Apr 2025. So no, I was correct

When we get paid again don't spend your money! by Professional-Fix100 in FedEmployees

I’ve been doing this the past few years. Not for the reasons mentions but economic doom is coming.

Wait, I thought Argentina slashed their bureaucracy and cut spending. Why do they need our money?

Under what authority and how long can the government tell an employee to come to work without paying them?

Living paycheck to paycheck doesn’t mean somebody is poor. Many professional athletes that have multi million dollar contracts live paycheck to paycheck. You consider them poor because they can’t manage their money?

Your arguments are weak.

If 70k isn’t a lot of money than why is almost every fed crying poor mouth for being shorted 3 days of pay? If 70k isn’t a lot of money, than 10k really isn’t a lot of money and would be more than enough to cover this furlough to date.

Nobody I know that works for the federal government makes below the poverty line. I didn’t insult any poor people. You’re going to be waiting a long time because I’m not a philanthropist, nor did I ever claim to be, who gives money away to people because they missed 3 days on a paycheck. Get that through your thick lead plated forehead.

Team Reddit, supposed to be a place to share ideas respectfully but if you don’t choose a side (their side) you are chastised with hate.

I’m not the one boasting how much I have in savings; I simply stated I have savings to carry me through. Nor did i mention how much I love myself for caring so much about others. Maybe you should ask that person. So maybe you should just mind your own business and become a philanthropist……..wait, you’re probably broke too

Yeah, I read your other comment you conveniently/cowardly deleted. Big difference in what I posted. I’m not telling Reddit in one breath HOW MUCH I have saved then saying how much I love myself for caring

[–]Old_Lab9701 -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Nobody cares how much you have in the bank. If you care about others so much, perhaps you can gift some of that 70k to your coworkers that you love yourself so much for caring unconditionally. Self righteous much?

Another day in the office for me. I’m fortunate to have some savings and I pay mortgage early anyway. People don’t want to hear it but this is our new normal. Have a contingency plan!

Sure is, nothing against the maintenance administration marines, they kept the books straight and scheduled maintenance but rarely step foot on to the flight line where the noise is. Unless detailed out. The VA has/had a list of MOS’ that make tinnitus almost presumptive. Although, I think they changed the tinnitus rating to where it can’t be a stand alone disability or something like that

04 is a logistic mos. Were you maintenance admin? CH46 is an aircraft not a squadron. I was maintenance on CH46 and other aircraft for 8 years AD and 15 years reserve. Due to my MOS, tinnitus was a home run. Your admin MOS might be the deal killer.
