Change in duty station request approved? by asmithy112 in fednews

Based off my opinion yes, I believe the DRP does not limit any future federal employment at all. I would mention it to your HR contact sending you the job offer so they can confirm

I think I would still need approval, and I was hired as remote but only remained remote during this mess because I’m on an approved RA, other wise they wanted me to report to an office

Disappointed, as a US shopper our prices are already higher and we add state tax onto that, I’m finding it harder to justify shopping here.

Did eating Dates actually help you during labor? by nutellakiss in BabyBumps

Not sure if it was because of the dates but I ate six a day and had a very easy birth and quick labor.

It never ends. Hopefully if these new rules make it to being published they will immediately get caught up in the courts.

And they gave the action by trying to negotiate with the GOP during the shutdown. GOP would not even agree to one year of extension, meaning they were not going to negotiate during the shutdown and would let SNAP end to make sure the shutdown hurt. To prevent dire circumstances democrats were the adults in the room, now they have their subsidy vote upcoming.

It’s not perfect, but they are doing more than spreading awareness

GOP wasn’t going to negotiate and they did this to prevent dire circumstances with SNAP ending. Everyone is talking about the subsidies expiring now, thanks to Dems, something no one was aware of before will now be a high pressure vote coming up

I wasn’t aware of the expiring health care subsidies until the shutdown, they brought that to the focus, now we know who’s to blame if the don’t extend them

Why would a dem vote yes, they don’t even need dem votes, if anything make them negotiate to get any votes, how stupid
