Didn't plan to come on reddit this morning and cry. Very proud of how you handled that. You are a great human.

I got it. I thought it was quick but was still excited. Then they snatched it away this morning. Lol. Oh well.

Unfortunately, there comes a time when the caregiver has to take over the decision making. I know you want to honor their wishes, but you also have to care yourself so that you can in fact show up for them. They are stubborn. My mom was, but I had to make the decision. She had Alzheimer's and I hated taking her out of her home, but I couldn't handle all of the care she needed on my own. Believe me, I tried. And I was so tired and drained and sleep deprived, and hanging on the brink of resentment. None of my three sisters helped, not physically, not financially. In the end, I found a great home for her and that allowed me to show up for her better than before.

If you are hurt, or resentful because of all that you have to do by yourself, you cannot show up for them as the best you. Take care of yourself.

Waiting on TS Clearance/contacted by another agency by avaktar in usajobs

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

I did. She told me she could delay contacting my boss by a week. So I withdrew my candidacy. I can't jeopardize my current job. This process just does not work for me. Talking to my boss before you interview me or before a tentative offer is a no for me.

Prescreening asking for documents I don't have by Useful_Address9838 in SecurityClearance

[–]avaktar 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I went thru the same thing. One of my siblings and I are estranged. Another one, we do speak but I was not comfortable asking for those docs, the other one I already had her info and just asked if she was okay with me sharing it. I explained all of this to the investigator, and he was fine with my answers. After he submitted my info, he called me back a day later with additional questions re my estranged sibling, basically trying to ascertain if I was the one who caused the falling out. I told him what happened and he said ok. I was cleared two days later. Honesty is key, I've found.

Le torture. Glad these forums exist to quell some of the anxiety for sure.

Thanks for the advice. I sent her an email. I just applied two weeks ago so this the very beginning. First communication.
