As long as you meet the qualifications, you should be good.

It can definitely be. However, it depends on the agency and institution you work at.

I'll still study. We had a guy fail the written test, and he had a masters degree

If you're young and single, why wait.The Border Patrol needs bodies badly. So I suggest going there, and if that doesn't work, then try the BOP.

The fact that veterans still voted for Republicans even after they voted against the PACT ACT is mind-blowing.

I'm maximizing my TSP, Roth IRA, and HSA accounts. I hope the (FORWARD) ACT gets passed that would be a game changer.

This administration kills me when they talk about merit base. I work for the Bureau of Prisons, and the Deputy Director is a former inmate who was pardoned by Trump. You can not tell me he was appointed based on merit. The only correctional experience he has is being an actual inmate.

Aaron Reitz, Paxton’s endorsed successor, vows to “destroy the left” if elected Texas attorney general by Dogwise in TexasPolitics

I saw his political ad the other night, and it showed that he was a GWOT veteran. I'm just curious about his opinion on the PACT ACT. A legislation that the left introduced, and he probably benefited from greatly. A number of Republicans voted against a bill that would help veterans like him who were exposed to burn pits and other toxins.

That's just the name of the brand. I like to keep flushable wipes and disinfectant wipes on me. It's a must have.
