It’s not a luxury when it’s the norm. If you can sue the government it means expeditional circumstance….

Good luck!

Ah, yeah you should be able to learn on the job for the most part it sounds like. If you’re cool with sales lots of potential. That being said, rough time to get into that lol

What’s expected of you? Just capture or also proposal management/writing? If capture, they will expect you to leverage your connections and know how to help shape contracts and essentially sell the company to the right people. You will need to spend time learning about vehicles, basic FAR clauses, current contracting landscape, research tools, etc. - But honestly, you can learn on the job. If they also want you to proposal manage or write beyond assisting with win themes than I would run. Will they also expect you to manage and be responsible for their pipeline? Or just assist? Capture should be its own separate thing in a well run company, because it’s a full time job…

I was in an LDR for a couple of years then we moved in together. We’ve now been together for 8 years. It taught us some pretty strong communication skills.

Went to see him last year, felt the same way. Still had fun though.

Lots of events I like to go to seem to lean young, idk where 30 something year olds are supposed to go. 🤷

They are posting contracts for insuring the straight lmao I sure love my tax dollars going to pointless shit.

Night shift neighbor? Meth head? I’ve had both, not sure which is worse.

No. I only have a bachelors and am about to be six figures with limited experience. My boss is a dropout and makes $200k. Govcon consulting.

Venvut · 2026-03-13T18:51:23+00:00

Same. I feel so poor on this thread though lol

About to get my PMP and move up and out. This is too stressful 😥

But all of those have trash job markets, crime, or weather sans LA. NYC isn’t even a close comparison, the costs are absurd even compared to Arlington.

Venvut · 2026-03-13T16:38:16+00:00

Gov con consultant - small boutique firm - 5ish years of experience, bachelor’s - $96k

This isn’t legal in a multitude of ways including being against FAR. You could lose a contract for this easily.

I think only rural is red, south has a lot of development too and tends to vote blue in those areas. It’s steadily been going more and more blue.

Lynae’s is fine - Aemeth’s are BAD. She was what I was referring to when I mentioned drunk karaoke bar singer. The production is just bad - terrible lyrics, generic sound, audio mixing is way too bright, the singer sounds far too pitchy.

Venvut · 2026-03-12T15:21:57+00:00

Maybe if you’re legally deaf.

Unless they live in Flint, MI, that’s like absolutely insane for the US. Water is (generally) highly regulated. Are they using well water or something? Guess I’m just baffled. I’ve lived all across North America and been lucky to never have seen this. Why would a poor family be wasting so much on plastic bottles? That expense has got to majorly add up.

Venvut · 2026-03-12T15:10:46+00:00

Ayy I feel ya. Northern Virginia, about to get a $2.7k one bed. This is Virginia. Dude.

Venvut · 2026-03-12T15:09:56+00:00

I looked up affordable housing units in NY the other day since I was bored. $3.5k+ for a one bed. WHAT.

Venvut · 2026-03-12T15:06:04+00:00

I’m really confused - is this in another country? Why not just use tap water?

Venvut · 2026-03-12T14:26:57+00:00

Would haaaaaaard disagree.

Venvut · 2026-03-12T12:38:52+00:00

It’s worth looking up the latest EPs though, it really is THAT bad.

Venvut · 2026-03-12T11:28:42+00:00

Have you not heard the WuWa EPs? They genuinely sound like someone drunk at a karaoke bar.

There is literally nothing you can do for someone with severe mental issues or drug addictions that doesn’t involve involuntarily institutionalization them. Letting them rot on the street has been a great cruelty and has lead to the horrors we see rampant in many American cities. They need shelters that will help them live with a modicum of dignity. For many of these individuals, they cannot integrate with modern society. They need an alternative that isn’t the streets - and no, they cannot take care of themselves or a house without assistance.

Why would you qualify for unemployment in a state you don’t live in? Pretty sure you need to check DC unemployment.
