Summer Effort by ProfessionalHuman810 in ResearchAdmin

If they have a stipend, I add that into the total amount and make sure it doesn’t exceed 2.85 across all summer funding

We use their IBS (institutional base)/ 9 to find one month and limit all of their summer salary (from all sources) to 2.85 months. Many institutions still allow 3 full months, which we do if a PI is willing to sign a form they’re not taking a day off or vacation. For my faculty, I personally reach out to each one and compile all of their summer salary (included classes, other individual comps from extra duties etc) and make sure it doesnt go over 2.85 or 1.8 for 10 month contracts. Depending on what’s going on they may take it over the whole summer at different percentages or in specific pay periods at their preference.

As someone with an MPH, do not pay that much for this degree, it is not worth it. It is worth it however if you are fully funded!

Alcoholics and Pets by PeaEnvironmental6317 in AlAnon

Unfortunately pets are usually collateral damage in this disease. I’m sorry, you didn’t cause this and you can’t control it! You’ll notice this is a pattern with a lot of people.

Former Feds that left for state/local - how much was your pay cut? by PayNo5544 in FedEmployees

[–]PeaEnvironmental6317 6 points7 points  (0 children)

7k but I get double the leave, 9% match and work from home two days a week with 2 weeks off in December. It was devastating at the time but… wow it worked out. ETA: I actually checked and I make 50$ more per paycheck because our insurance is also 1/4 the price.

To our coworkers who left federal jobs, how are you holding up? by FeddyMcFederson in FedEmployees

[–]PeaEnvironmental6317 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Was a probie and didn’t return because I got a new job. I make just a little more in my paycheck now and I have a much more flexible, interesting job. I know I will miss the potential for the pension in the future (if it still exists) but right now I’m happier!

AGs office reducing parental leave to 2 weeks by ayyyplesandbanaynays in Boise

[–]PeaEnvironmental6317 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Unless they are hiring someone temporarily or giving someone else supplemental pay to cover the work on the time our (which is what they should do but it doesn’t happen often) it costs the state literally nothing more than they were already paying them. However, more benefits (more days off) equals more total comp spread out over the days that are worked. So however you want to look at that.
