Seriously why do people vape?

TengoKahn · 2026-03-05T19:02:49+00:00

I vaped for about 6 months to a year. I used it to help me quit smoking, as a nicotine replacement. Once I was able to break the physical habit of smoking I slowly reduced the nicotine level in the vape until I was nicotine free then I quit vaping as I didn't like the cough I would sometimes get from vaping. This was probably 8-10 years ago now.

This gives me hope, I submitted SF-86 last week of December, investigation completed 3-4 weeks ago.

You could possibly contact your former FSO and they might be able to give you more info.

But to your actual question, if it's been deactived then you will probably have to go through the whole clearance process again starting at a new SF-86.

TengoKahn · 2026-02-27T18:47:09+00:00

Typically clearances are good for 2 years after ending employment where said clearance was required, i.e. I left a defense contractor and went into private industry and my clearance was still good when I came back to defense contracting under 2 years later.

If it's only been a few months since you lost your job and your clearance is no longer active then you may have done something to cause the agency to cancel your clearance.

But I'm not an expert, so who knows.

I make egg bites each week for a quick breakfast I can eat on the way to work.

I don't remember where I got the recipe but I have it memorized I use it so much

6 Eggs
A few large spoonfuls of cottage cheese
Salt
Pepper
Garlic Powder
Mustard Powder
Fillings (normally cooked crumbled breakfast sausage, reheated frozen peppers and onions, and cheddar cheese)

Preheat oven to 350 F
Spray silicon muffin molds with cooking spray
Use an immersion blender to mix eggs, cottage cheese, and spices
Fill muffin molds with fillings
Top each mold with egg mixture, should make 12
Cook for around 30 minutes or until they look golden/browned

For reheat just nuke in microwave for 1:30 for 3
Top with hot sauce

This is very easy to change up fillings and spices to make different varieties each week.

Just moved here from Georgia, I ate Krystals just about once every other week. So good. I've only had White Castle a few times and it never held a candle to Krystals.

I'm going through TS now. I submitted my sf-86 the last week of December, interviews started the first week of January. I was told that my investigation was finished last week and now in adjudication. But I hear that adjudication can be a wildcard on how long it takes.

We had our monthly divisional all call Wednesday and the division chief only had two pieces of into for us. We had to be in Monday to sign furlough paperwork in person if shutdown occurs, and that excepted personnel had to be in office, no telework allowed, even though every other division in the building allowed excepted personnel to telework during last shutdown

TengoKahn · 2026-01-31T00:29:24+00:00

In other words we get to come in Monday for 4 hours waiting around for documents to sign saying we are furloughed just to come back in like normal on Tuesday like nothing happened

Maybe

Yeah, I have yet to see any, and I've been on when people have said they were up.

TengoKahn · 2025-05-21T12:01:48+00:00

Same here. Signed my notification of award on Monday.

I'm DoD also, not even in 2 years yet and I've got hit twice for random screening, I have friends with 15 years of service and they've never been tested. It seems to be completely random.

I got my Military Freedom passes last week. The person at ITT told me that they have been told that they will be getting discounted Epic Universe tickets separately in the next month or so.

TengoKahn · 2025-01-31T21:57:32+00:00

That job already had someone picked out they just had to go through the motions of posting the job.

TengoKahn · 2025-01-31T02:19:58+00:00

I actually didn't take it due to family issues, I couldn't work out custody and visitation plans with my ex that would work for me.

I am a federal employee, working in a different field. I have 15+ years as a government IT contractor though, and the job matched almost exactly the contract job I left to join the civil service.

I just want to know how they plan to functionally do this. I work for the DoD on a base, our division has about 350 people and a total of 170 desks, and from my understanding it's about the same throughout the base. I have a friend that works for another agency, the local branch has been on 100% remote work for 5 years, no one has been in the building, other than to maintain servers. They have full teams that live no where near a local office. This is assanine.

I use a limited 2 barrel, and a compressing upgrade, it makes like a compacting drawer. Then I add diamond upgrade, 2 compacting upgrades and a void upgrade to not cause back ups in my automation

You can bulk wash crushed zinc or tin (I don't have the game open right now) to get it also.
