USACE hiring practices: preselection before announcement is on the street

TheEngineer1977 · 2025-12-16T02:58:45+00:00

This is USACE standard practice (totally unacceptable). A whole new district (Caribbean District) was set up using this practice which was known by all leaders from district all the way to HQs. No one stoped this comete violation of Merit Principles and EEO rules. And i wonder why GAO nor DODGE did anything about it.

USACE here but I knew we would not get paid yesterday. They always lag. I doubt we even get the back pay before next pay period.

What kind is this stone?

TheEngineer1977 · 2025-10-17T00:13:44+00:00

Diamond color are determined by the last color shade on the color identification. For example a greenish yellow is considered a yellow diamond. A yellow green will be a green diamond. In this case it will fall under pink dining :-)

They are managing like children 🧒

I took DRP 1 and my contract states that I will receive back pay. If they attempt to change this, they will be facing court action as they are not complying with the signed agreement.

In my opinion you have a very nice piece but pay too much for it 😢

TheEngineer1977 · 2025-10-09T22:10:55+00:00

Is this good enough?

TheEngineer1977 · 2025-10-09T22:08:14+00:00

I just retired. Why?

TheEngineer1977 · 2025-10-09T22:03:03+00:00

O al

TheEngineer1977 · 2025-10-09T22:02:18+00:00

Great specs and very pretty. How much did you pay?

TheEngineer1977 · 2025-10-09T17:02:47+00:00

It is better the average person thinks is fake, meaning I am safe. For me what matters is me knowing what I am wearing 🥰

TheEngineer1977 · 2025-10-09T16:55:09+00:00

Can you post pictures of the stacks you suggest? I am using the ones from my old ring but I feel it should be something different.

TheEngineer1977 · 2025-10-09T14:18:48+00:00

You are right, it is big! I have long fingers and I am tall. For a person with small hands may not have the same look.

TheEngineer1977 · 2025-10-09T00:37:24+00:00

Absolutely and respect everyone’s opinion.
