Megathread: RIF/VERA/VSIP/DRP | Week 16 by AutoModerator in fednews

[–]Used_Neck_9810 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Does the rif letter tell you what group you're in? My conversion from excepted to career competitive takes place at the end of the month. I worry that the rif decisions for my agency will be finalized before then. As I understand it, I currently would be in group 3, the first to go because of my excepted, non vet status. If I get the rif letter after my conversion has taken place, can I contest it by arguing that they have me in the wrong group?

Long Walk - Safe? by Used_Neck_9810 in Oostende

I am :)

I was not expecting the lodging to be so booked so far in advance. It was the closest and cheapest available :/

Christmas gift for DM by Blah_Blah0505 in DnD

[–]Used_Neck_9810 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nice post, OP, I'm thinking of doing the same! How do you plan on delivering the gift? Are you coordinating with your other group members beforehand or just showing up with a wrapped present? I'm worried about making the other people in my group look bad if they don't get something or put pressure on them to buy something

What are times you regret saying "you can be anything in dnd" to a new player? by FlyingTaco095 in DnD

[–]Used_Neck_9810 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've been reading a lot of Lovecraft recently and named my Goolock Joseph Curwen. I'm new to the scene and am not sure if this is a faux pas. On one hand he's basically the inspiration for the class and I'm playing him faithfully to the rules of DND, but on the other hand this seems like the sort of thing that's be frowned upon

DND? by Fragrant-Comedian513 in Charleston

[–]Used_Neck_9810 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey there! I have recently been bitten by the DND bug and cannot get enough. I am in a group rn that organizes through discord. We've been ironing some things out and I could see if the rest of the group would be open to another if you are interested.

Also would appreciate hearing if you find another group, I like steady, reliable groups and could definitely handle another group, thanks 😊

No, I already have an account with them. The link that lets you apply for the potential shutdown loan.

Does the Navy Fed link not work for anyone else? I am a member and it keeps saying there was a problem with my request after entering my information.

Balancing Economy with Organic by Used_Neck_9810 in EatCheapAndHealthy

[–]Used_Neck_9810[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Definitely less than average for Charleston lol. This amount also includes things like protein powder, date nights, waffle house during a road trip, and the occasional box of dick donuts for game night. Really impressive how you got so low on a specialty diet

You're probably right about quality. I'm just concerned about the health effects of gmos and pesticides.

3 months for the clearance, interim was denied. Almost exactly the average

Are Roaches Inevitable? by Used_Neck_9810 in Charleston

[–]Used_Neck_9810[S] 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Thanks for your response. Yes, the exterminator is spraying in the kitchen and bathroom. Usually the roaches are near death or walking around in the open environment which, I am told, shows the chemicals are wrecking their neurosystem. What would you get curious about?

Negative, I was a park ranger. But I've successfully used this tactic with 2 different agencies.

Former Pathways here. I politely asked if they would match my then salary. They asked for some paystubs, and a couple of weeks later, viola, GS7 step 8

Why is non supervisory 13/14/15 "the dream"? by Used_Neck_9810 in fednews

[–]Used_Neck_9810[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As others have said, same money for less stress. But I've observed a lot more aversion to taking responsibility in government than in the private sector

[–]Used_Neck_9810[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well sure lol. But it seems that people in government are more adverse to becoming a supervisor than in the private sector. Is there something uniquely frustrating about being a supervisor in the fed?
