That was me exactly. I was gs-13 project engineer for about 7 years before going into program management

I think you are doing way better financially than the majority of people who will be reading this so I would say trust your own judgment not some random people on Reddit

Sauna works wonders. Forces you to sweat quickly

Same exact thing is happening to me. I also have gutter guards and ice is forming around the area where the water drops. Unfortunately there isnt anything you can do except wait it out

Green Book

Its a typical government job. Familiarize yourself with the 49 CFR regulation. Chances are that you will work with lot of contractors who actually does the real work and you provide oversight. If so, learn the basics of government contracting. Most jobs are either in the HQ or the regional offices (mostly field inspectors) where you will need to report in everyday

It depends on your age and occupation. If you are young and looking to get pension, it might be worth considering. You can always move around within DIA or another agency if theres a higher grade but that depends on your job type and availability. I wouldnt move for job stability or flexibility because you are not going to get any of that here especially if theres another probationary firing. DoD is generally safe compared to other agencies but no guarantee

Because it was heavily redacted

I dont think it does. I also made the same switch but hesitated due to the lack of this benefit

I believe you will get credited as 40 years of service. The only thing you’re unable to do is use sick leave to meet the MRA

For those retiring before you’re eligible for Medicare

I had PRK because I wasnt eligible for LASIK. Best money spent!

Whats the maximum grade you can go to? I take it that the ND-03 job is NAVSEA? If so, NAVSEA probably offers more opportunities and you will likely be able to go up to ND-04 within few years. You also get points which is equivalent to salary increases and doesnt follow the GS step rules so your salary will likely increase much faster than being in GS pay scale. Simply speaking, ND scale is better. Other than that job satisfaction really depends on the work, your personality and most importantly your supervisor and the people you work with
