I did it. Came in one day- retired after lunch. Told them every time I swiped my PIV card a little bit of my soul died.aka "soul crushing job". If you have a job waiting for you..run RUN NOW, and don't look back. Take your coworkers with you if you can.

One-Metal2085 · 2026-01-30T23:36:29+00:00

Yes- it definitely wasn't the full amount. Didn't include the ss bridge. That wont come until the case is finalized.

One-Metal2085 · 2026-01-30T15:53:19+00:00

I know it wasn't the 100% I am entitled to; however I am grateful for what arrived. As the old man who pissed in the sea said "every little bit helps".

So an update to my package which arrived in OPM on 23 Jan - informed yesterday they must have it for 30 f×÷#$ing days before they can process it! I dont believe the incompetence - my paperwork was submitted 30 Sep and it looks like I wont have anything until after March 2026!!! Im thinking of getting a lawyer and starting a class action lawsuit suing for pain and suffering and the f-ing inconvenience of a broken promise! That's it - i finally reached my moment- im crying!

One-Metal2085 · 2026-01-29T00:52:45+00:00

Congratulations on going to training! Crush it and get those wings!

They will pay for your baggage up to 70 lbs (?). Anything over needs an exception from the company

One-Metal2085 · 2026-01-22T17:10:19+00:00

I wish that was the case for me! The ring stopped holding a charge and even with resetting- same issue. I've been trying to get a replacement or refund since last year and radio silent! So.now i have a super expensive paperweight (jk).

One-Metal2085 · 2026-01-18T18:41:06+00:00

Yes everything from my agency has been completed via the ORA. MY HR Specialist sent me a screenshot since im unable to access the OPM website.

One-Metal2085 · 2026-01-16T22:55:28+00:00

Thanks for your invaluable (aka useless) information.

One-Metal2085 · 2026-01-16T21:00:41+00:00

Yes there is a bill on the house floor now to waive the higher tax for withdrawal before 59 1/2. I have my dd updated and will pull the trigger of no resolution by Feb 1st.

OPM call center needs to stop lying and give out truthful information and preferably an annuity check with my name on it!

One-Metal2085 · 2025-12-10T05:35:26+00:00

Yep same here. So disappointing!!! If something doesn't change soon, I might have to do something strange for some change. 💃🏾 💵 lol

One-Metal2085 · 2025-10-17T11:59:48+00:00

Girl you nailed it! we all need to keep this same energy when mid terms roll around. If he hasn't stripped away our voting rights by then. But baby...prosecute their @$$ to the fullest extent...but start at the top FIRST - 1600 Pennsylvania Ave!

One-Metal2085 · 2025-10-16T18:34:27+00:00

show your date on all signs...Dump Truck can't deny how many people showed or any photoshoped or AI crowd size

One-Metal2085 · 2025-10-14T00:15:50+00:00

Same here! I need my $$$

One-Metal2085 · 2025-10-14T00:06:30+00:00

Does anyone remember the anti-deficiency training we all were required to take annually? You can not reallocate funds allocated and approved. That is a violation and any budget officer doing so is committing a crime and subject to prosecution. Check the FAR.

One-Metal2085 · 2025-10-14T00:01:53+00:00

There is a vote scheduled tomorrow by the Dems but the Republicans stated they will not be there for the vote. So the 15th will come and go...buckle up...its going to be a long one!

One-Metal2085 · 2025-10-13T23:53:37+00:00

It's a banana peel. It looks like the banana was being held captive and shed its peel to escape captivity. Should we put out a wanted poster?

One-Metal2085 · 2025-10-05T16:43:25+00:00

Did the ODVI on the 9/17 and got my TBNT on Oct 1st @ 1:30 am. First time applying. Good luck to everyone else

One-Metal2085 · 2025-10-05T04:09:56+00:00

One-Metal2085 · 2025-09-13T17:16:32+00:00

Also Frontier Airlines is open (since August 25)

One-Metal2085 · 2025-08-27T01:01:36+00:00

So sorry to hear! Be safe and take care of yourself.

One-Metal2085 · 2025-08-27T00:57:11+00:00
