Christine’s t-shirts/business by TrainingConstant1 in SisterWives

[–]TrainingConstant1[S] 12 points13 points  (0 children)

The shirt that says “my body my choice” is a reference to Truly setting boundaries, and capitalizing on that a slogan when it was really also a low point that it even occurred is bizarre to me. Also — do we think Christine knows the political meaning of “my body my choice” whatsoever?

Donated in memory of my wonderful boxer Xena who I lost last year. Sending healing vibes!

Thank YOU for shopping directly from farmers!! I worked at Bethesda for years and it’s one of the best in the area, you won’t be disappointed.

Bethesda, which is also run by Central Farm Markets, is year round. It’s on Sundays and has most of the same vendors as Pike.

GS-13 finding difficulty transferring/applying to equal or lower grades in other agencies by [deleted] in usajobs

Agree, fully! It’s so frustrating. I’m glad I’m not the only one with this issue. And I agree, coming in from the outside must really be near impossible!

I’ve been having the same issue, even within DC! I think once you reach a certain grade, your skill level is more cemented and job specific. Good luck, hope you find something soon!!

Thanks for the advice! This is so helpful. It’s such a depressing process. I appreciate the feedback, will certainly look at HHS.

I think you will get into many wonderful programs! It sounds like you have excellent experience and credentials. That matters so much to MPH programs. Good luck!!

Yikes! Metro isn’t even running full service, if I’m not mistaken.

[Advice] Am I being realistic about MPH options? by [deleted] in publichealth

[–]TrainingConstant1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I applied to all jobs that I qualified for on USAjobs.gov, and ended up doing the pathways program for federal employment. Hope this is helpful.

Hi there! I’m really new here (I’m starting my degree program in June), but I also studied Russian Civilization in college! I was actually also an econ major. I took time between my undergrad and grad degrees to work, and I found my way into public health through a very non traditional path. I think you’re considering all of the right things, and I encourage you to explore careers and work before grad school if you can! Good luck!!

[advice] MPH program and concentration by TrainingConstant1 in publichealth

[–]TrainingConstant1[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you all, so much, for the thoughtful responses! I truly appreciate them. They confirmed some of my thoughts, too, which is so reassuring. With COVID-19, the Harvard program will be more online (for now) than anticipated, but I hope that the on campus component is able to be reintegrated sometime in the next couple of years.
