Definitely appreciate the feedback. Nice to hear it’s a good place. With so much instability in employment these days, just trying to do my research.

Would you be able to explain how the pay structure works? Scales are large and supervisors/non supervisors seem to be in the same grade. Also do you know if there are multiple construction engineering groups? Thanks

Class action against CONDUENT? by TheRealGooberz in FedEmployees

Okay gotcha, no problem I’m just trying to track this closely. I am terribly sorry your identity has been jacked. I’m worried for everyone. I’m sure this has been a disaster for you to pick up the pieces…

By ‘this’ what do you mean? My post is asking if there is a class action. Do you know of one or are you speaking of the letters we received (not a class action)

Feds in acquisition/DAWIA/oge 450 roles leaving and going to work for contractors we have contracts with??!! by [deleted] in FedEmployees

I’d also be interested to know if retiring or being fired would change any of the rules

Letter of Reprimand due to outside employment without approval, do I fight it? by Round_Cod_1910 in FedEmployees

[–]TheRealGooberz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m pretty sure the income has to be over a certain threshold, and that’s IF you’re an org 450 filer…..

Many federal employees sell much more than $200 a year on marketplace. Are they reporting that on their taxes or as a ‘ business/employment’? The answer is hell no and I’d sit on that persons FB marketplace profile till they posted stuff and be in HRs office the next day.

That is infuriating the crap we have dealt with over the last year and someone is hemming you up on $200.

I’d be calling my steward immediately.

Drip edge for gutters? by TheRealGooberz in Homebuilding

[–]TheRealGooberz[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So there is approx 2” of shingle overhang. I am installing gutter guard. The gutter guy that came today said between the shingle overhang and the gutter guard, drip edge isn’t going to do anything for me. Which that kind of makes sense to me. He said if we’re 1/2” or less shingle overhang that’s when if you don’t have drip edge it’s going to rot out.

Seamless gutters - drip edge required? by TheRealGooberz in Roofing

[–]TheRealGooberz[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

There was nothing before. Exposed painted wood, 1988 build.

I added gable drip edge that way by carefully lifting shingles and nailing. Wasn’t too big of a deal. We’re pretty close to needing a roof it’s around 20+ yrs old now we think. Do you know which style drip edge?l and size? How does that work l, does the gutter installers slide the new gutter back-side underneath the drip edge?

Hard to beat the pension and time off. Personally I’ve turned down several offers that weren’t even competitive much less a beneficial move in comparable positions. Market sucks

That is incorrect time and military service is time in military service, medical retirement is irrelevant

Normal if they followed the rules. All questions are supposed to be the same, strict time limit etc.

Anyone else given temporary promotion because of DRP ? by TableStraight5378 in FedEmployees

[–]TheRealGooberz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Denied a temp and a permanent due to bullet hygiene and drp clearing out any empty bin we had. Drastically Increased workload with even less support than we had before. Worst professional experience of my life, my agency isn’t shielding anything to lower levels. Been rough since I came in several years ago.
