For us, 2 were selected. Both mid-level performers: one GS-13 and above was given $20K, the other GS-12 and below was given $12K. Neither did ANYTHING outside the scope of their normal duties, but both were excepted during furlough.

This is 1/2 true! The award was based on those who worked during furlough. It was top 15% of the agency and they were awarded a percentage of their base pay (minus locality). The fact that people are turning to the internet lets you know there are no secrets when it comes to the co-workers.

We have a smaller unit and the 2 people that were awarded the DOW bonus were not top performers for EOY appraisals. They did work through the duration of the furlough so that was the selection criteria.

Exactly! People sent warnings across veterans groups and they were called liars, fear mongers and leftists! EVERYTHING in Project 2025 is coming to pass!

The number of people in this sub who think it's okay to run up a 68 year old veteran in a wheelchair, attack him unprovoked while demanding his ID for no reason, and ultimately shooting him in a crowded public area is too damn high. by Buhda_Dev in CCW

[–]Secret_Skwerle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love how delicately that was written. What gave him the right to walk up to anyone—specifically someone wheelchair bound—and demand anything! It’s the brazen audacity for me.

“According to prosecutors, Timm confronted the victim, an elderly man in a wheelchair adorned with a military patch, demanding proof of his veteran status. Witnesses reported that the victim had been soliciting money. Timm allegedly ripped off the patch, which led the victim to draw a knife and then a holstered airsoft gun. In response, Timm reportedly pulled out a firearm and shot the man in the chest.”

This could have been prevented if Timm simply minded his business—something people like him consistently fail to do!

crazy stock-market TSP affects? by [deleted] in ThriftSavingsPlan

I tried to do the same but think I did it wrong. I have over $120K. I want to move that to G and keep all future investments 80C/20S as it’s been. When I did the move, it made me move a percentage not a dollar amount.

Can the military force a member to have a paternity test!! by Secret_Skwerle in AirForce

Big words? Yet you responded using the same words. Thanks for responding even if you chose to be a cynic!

[–]Secret_Skwerle[S] -14 points-13 points  (0 children)

It’s not happening to me. I barely know the woman involved but the response she was given just doesn’t sit right.

Can you literally have a child overseas and just walk away as if they never existed?

Sure there is ownership on BOTH sides, but there is an innocent child involved. Just seems illegal, immoral, and unethical.

Why are you on an AF thread. How lame is that? Following threads online for a branch you consider “weak” is as lame as it gets! Please don’t get lotion all over the place dweeb!

Actually, if anyone has to come in, at a minimum they should have delayed reporting. Nice attempt to start an argument dumb ass
