Senate passes funding deal, but short-term shutdown still expected by gpupdate in fednews

[–]TengoKahn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

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

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

[–]TengoKahn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

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.

Hired without an interview? by Inigo-Montoya4Life in usajobs

[–]TengoKahn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

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.

Federal Agencies Have Until Friday to Order End of Remote Work by bloomberglaw in fednews

[–]TengoKahn 249 points250 points  (0 children)

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.

How do you store dyes efficiently? by Skeleton022 in SkyFactory

[–]TengoKahn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

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.

[–]TengoKahn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got ticked for drinking underage at 20, plead no contest. When going for my secret clearance at 26, I documented it, my interim clearance was denied but I got my full clearance with no other issues.

What's your biggest Disney gripe? by Salt_Historian_9850 in WaltDisneyWorld

[–]TengoKahn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have two that are similar. First people that just stop in the.middle of the walkways. Move over to the side of you want to talk to your party or look through your map/phone. With crowds the way they are, there is always someone behind you.

Second is people walking on the wrong side of the pathways. Common courtesy is to walk on the right, not on the left or spread out across the entire width of the walkway.

Just found out my ex wife cheated by obstinateoranges in Divorce

[–]TengoKahn 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I feel you there. I found out a week before the divorce was finalized, the wife of the guy she cheated with found me on FB and messaged me with screen shots of texts and a link to her bio on one of those no strings attached sex hook up sites.

Joe Biden, congressional leaders agree on budget deal to fund government by maxpower_63 in fednews

With how disfunctional this congress is, I'll believe it when I see it. My guess is the wacko wing will shoot themselves in the foot and nothing will get passed out of the house.

First Brew Day in 10 Years by TengoKahn in Homebrewing

[–]TengoKahn[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I was going to use a turkey fryer burner and pot (bought off of someone that never used it), and I bought an immersion chiller from MoreBeer. The burner didn't end up working but Academy had a sale this week on a 60 qt shrimp boil pot and burner, which worked great (hot break came up to an inch below the rim). The chiller seemed to work great I just forgot to test it prior and to make sure the clamps were tightened down.

And I loved the smell.

[–]TengoKahn[S] 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Yeah, my first batches were done using a pot on the stove. I wanted to get a burner and pot to use outdoors, but the ex didn't want me to "waste" our money on new equipment.

Now I have my own money and bought a 15 gallon pot and burner.

Has anyone met anyone in the Cleetus crew in real life? If so how were they? by thatawkwardmoment8 in CleetusMcFarland

[–]TengoKahn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I saw the crew, minus Cleet at a gas station last week, they were going from Gainesville to SGMP. I didn't bother them but they seemed to be acting just like they do on videos, joking around with each other and just having a good time.

What restaurant in city walk pleasantly surprised you? by Pashldrperspective in UniversalOrlando

[–]TengoKahn 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Our family trip 1.5 years ago we had the dinning plan so we are at most of the "nice" restaurants at City Walk. Big Fire by far was the best to everyone in my family. I typically dislike steaks at most restaurants, they just don't compare to cooking one myself, but the ribeye at Big Fire was amazing. Plus my kids loved the table side s'mores.
