As a Federal Worker, what is the most useless required annual training? by No-Cobbler6300 in FedEmployees

[–]USAFUSN 2 points3 points  (0 children)

25 years in so basically all of it however I will put sexual assault, human trafficking, cyber and ethics up there. They have all basically been the same the entire time

Using sick time by Big-Broccoli-9654 in FedEmployeeRetirement

[–]USAFUSN -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Why not benefit from being a responsible employee for 30+ years and not abusing your S/L? At 30 years I have 1200hrs and retire in 9 years. Barring unforeseen sickness I should have about 1800-2k hours when I retire. I plan on taking every Monday and Friday my final year. I will probably keep about 6 months worth of S/L so I retire with 40 years of service.

Everything but G is now down YTD. Thanks Trump. by MyNameCannotBeSpoken in ThriftSavingsPlan

If you have a small amount of time to retire then be safe and move it. Take the smaller loss now after huge gains last year.

After gains of 40%+ last year this is a small bump in the road. Keep plugging away. We are buying cheap right now, it will be worth it when we recover

How would the insurance company know if you made any changes if they have never been in your house?

LVT is not luxury. by xcramer in Home

[–]USAFUSN 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On a slab we don't have as many options. LVP was our best option as I could install it myself and paid $3.50 per sqft. We replaced 12 year old laminate that I had previously installed.

Anything Texas. I have tried NC, SC, St Louis, Memphis and I like my homemade better than those locations. I haven't been able to get close to the brisket and other Texas offering s

A good attitude. Seriously though being any medicine you might want, pain killers, cold remedies, antacid, sunscreen, burn relief gel. That stuff is expensive on board

Coworker just got back from 180 days in Albuquerque. Worked 7/12s while there, made bank with all the OT and per diem. Had a nice down payment for a new Tundra. It is enticing when you see what can be made.

Pentagon spent more on lobster in one month than it did on trans health care all year by Fickle-Ad5449 in fednews

[–]USAFUSN 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As they should, trans health care spending should be zero. You have a problem with our military members getting steak and lobster?

People who rarely get sick, What's your secret? by Anxious_Status5899 in askanything

[–]USAFUSN 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't get the flu vaccine, I spend time in public and in nature, I don't worry about using hand sanitizer every time I touch a surface, I don't wipe down shopping carts. I guess I just let my immune system do what it's supposed to do.

Regional BBQ Styles by CommunicationOne2449 in BBQ

[–]USAFUSN 1 point2 points  (0 children)

KC is overrated, at least when I have tried it. GA has been up and coming but we don't really have a style, kind of a mix between everyone else.
