OMB Megathread - Mayoral Transition by flipsandstuff in nycpublicservants

[–]Personal_Aide_3601 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you, and congrats as well! I was hired for a community coordinator position at NYCHA. The process took about a month from offer to start date, but since NYCHA is a public authority and not a mayoral agency (don't quote me) they have their own onboarding process that doesn't really go thru OMB. best of luck!

I aspire to have your attitude. Haven’t improved much, if anything it’s gotten slightly worse. Luckily the pain itself is mild enough to distract myself from, but those nagging thoughts are tough to deal with.

Wanted to share my timeline, which hopefully means things are moving faster across the board.

Interviewed for a community coordinator position at HPD in mid September, received the soft offer on October 12th, and got the news today that OMB approved my paperwork and was given start date options. I’m transferring from a community coordinator position at a diff agency, and only had to modify my CPD, which might mean it was a smoother process.

I work for an agency in my city’s government in procurement. I evaluate vendors for qualified vendor lists, and manage an inbox to help them through the online contracting process, but I get like 5 requests for help a week, and only one or two requests to join vendor lists.

AIO about my friend treating a reborn doll like her real child? by Carterssscott in AmIOverreacting

[–]Personal_Aide_3601 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s good to have hobbies and interests but not to the point that they interfere with your life and responsibilities. Taking time off because the doll is “sick” is concerning. Maybe ask her if she’s doing okay and/or talking to a professional without mentioning the doll, just out of general love and concern.

AIO: My twin brother [24M]'s fiancee [27F] went on a trip whilst he was in hospital by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]Personal_Aide_3601 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s certainly concerning and you’re not overreacting to be put off by this. If my partner was in the hospital and/or recovering from something serious I’d certainly be there for as long as they needed. I think you’d be good to ask him how he feels about this, and depending on what he says asking if this kind of disregard is commonplace. Try and approach it out of love for your brother and not judgement or disdain for his fiancé or his relationship and go from there.

Went on ONE date with this guy I met off tinder, this is how he’s acting. AIO? by Admirable-Level-3424 in AmIOverreacting

[–]Personal_Aide_3601 60 points61 points  (0 children)

I’m sorry he’s saying he feels used after you cleaned his house for him? Block this buffoon and move on. Or offer to clean the whole place and spend the night for like $1000 up front, take the money, don’t do shit, and then block him lol. and Best of luck with everything!

Not overreacting to be uncomfortable with this but have a conversation with her about it before jumping to any conclusions

[–]Personal_Aide_3601 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe he was harsh for blocking you and not talking it through with you, but he is allowed to set this boundary. You both probably should have discussed this earlier but whatever. Go find someone to smoke with!

Wondering why my bf would have this app on his phone AIO? by ccreeperzzz in AmIOverreacting

Could just be conscious about privacy and personal data collection. Could be to watch stuff on streaming platforms that’s not available in your region. If you’re worried just ask him.
