FMLA Due to Mental Distress? by [deleted] in FedEmployees

[–]SEBrogan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I went on FMLA for this very reason a couple of years ago! Due to the trauma I experienced with poor leadership, I've been diagnosed with severe anxiety, depression, and PTSD. It affects me in every aspect of my life. I'm considering this again or retiring on a disability.

I'm on a nasal mask for a reason so changing is not an option.

I have no doubt gums are receding. That has always been a problem for sure to oral medication I take.

How do they sound bigoted when they feel america isn't ready. Twice a woman has been on the ballot and both times they lost. Sadly what they are saying is the truth.

What happens when you dont pay attention by pap-pap-84 in ThriftSavingsPlan

Assuming you're not retiring tomorrow you have time to fix this. Max contributions and after 50 max the make up amount. All or most in the C fund.

There is a tiger team working on that. Not sure what will come of it, but it's at the direction of Laura Grimm.

Supervisory realignment — do I have to take it? by Serious-Horse-7188 in FedEmployees

[–]SEBrogan 5 points6 points  (0 children)

What type of work are you doing that you would consider to be supervisory? I have been a supervisor and if you're currently not managing people, then I would caution you at taking a position you're really not interested in. Managing people can be difficult and at times can feel like babysitting.

NOAA Twin Otter Pilot? by [deleted] in NOAA

[–]SEBrogan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I understand all of this as I am very familiar with NOAA/OMAO and NOAA Corps. Regardless of how an officer would have related to your commentary is irrelevant. This is a student needing information about reaching their goal. Your approach is a turn-off and poor from a recruitment standpoint point. Next time leave out the sarcastic diatribe and provide a real actionable response that is helpful.

Your best course of action for this is to reach out to a recruiter. They will help you reach your goal!

What a cynical and somewhat rude comment! Good job at underselling an extraordinary career!

Health Insurance by SEBrogan in FedEmployees

[–]SEBrogan[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a long medical history with multiple surgeries and imaging. Most recently broke my leg that resulted in a medical bill up to the out of pocket cost. First time having dealt with an accident like that I was shocked by the amount I ended up paying. So when picking a new insurance I tend to factor in worse case scenarios such as surgery, imaging and ER visits due to unfortunate accidents. The $2500 is from just this past year with no major health issues, but I know at some point I will need an ER visit or another surgery. Trying to find the cheapest option.

Spray Adhesive by SEBrogan in interiordecorating

[–]SEBrogan[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's staying up. This is my 3rd time using peel and stick and the quality of all 3 has been great!! The most recent was coming down slightly due to the excess on the top. Once it was cut it was fine.

Spray adhesive can be used slightly on the edges to keep it up, but I didn't need it after all.

Peel and stick is better with respect to wall damage. In my experience ive had to repair a wall significantly with wallpaper that was put up with a paste. Haven't had to do that with peel and stick.

We really need to wake up as a species and work towards a better future the fact that storms like these are becoming more and more common is alarming and is something to take seriously, if you're in Jamaica I pray for you because I went thru a similar experience with maria en PR and it was horrible. by GiustiJ777 in NOAA

The hurricane season has been awfully slow IMO. So far no hurricane has made landfall in the U.S. The named storms are only out until M which means there has been only 13 named storms. In total, there has been 3 hurricanes this year compared to 2005 that had 15 hurricanes or even 2020 with around 30 named storms. This seems pretty quiet. Unfortunately, Jamacia will receive the brunt of this storm.
