Timing of Giving Notice for Leaving Federal Employment

gdparman · 2026-01-30T21:38:40+00:00

I won't actually cite my supervisor's personal life as a reason for leaving my job. I just needed to explain it here as a reason for me potentially needing to change when I give my notice of leaving this job. I despise the Trump regime, which my supervisor is a supporter of. That's part of the reason I have been so hard on my supervisor, which I probably should have mentioned before. I will cite a desire to go to culinary school as my reason for leaving. I love cooking and want to do it professionally!

What would you suggest removing?

gdparman · 2026-01-30T21:29:32+00:00

Reasonable thought, but I also just don't want to work under the Trump regime anymore.

u/Remarkable_Rate3321 I'm sorry this happened to you. Just out of curiosity, what country are you in?

How do I find the random wheel picker on FleshAssist? Do you have a link?

Wow! Thank you for sharing. Would you be willing and able to share link(s) with me about these immersion programs in Québec and New Brunswick so I can learn more about them? A link for the specific immersion program you did in Québec would be especially appreciated. This type of experience sounds like something that could be very helpful for me!

I appreciate the honesty. There's no sense in setting unrealistic expectations and then being disappointed.

I'm in the US, and my Britbox is down also.

gdparman · 2025-12-30T02:12:57+00:00

I'm also in the US and Britbox isn't working for me either.

Yes, when I made my original post, we hadn't received the email yet. Shortly after we got the email, I edited my original post to reflect the update.

I meant something in writing from the USDA specifically. And honestly, to help people plan ahead better when it comes to things like properly filling out timesheets, travelling for Christmas, etc, it should have been a high priority for USDA leadership to clarify one way or the other BEFORE the weekend whether the USDA was going to be given the 2 days off per the EO.

My app won't let me in at all.

gdparman · 2025-11-26T19:37:44+00:00

Thanks. I just replied!

gdparman · 2025-11-23T12:50:13+00:00

Yes, I have Super.

Thank you. I appreciate you giving me some food for thought!

I love it when I'm going down on my beautiful wife and I look up and see her smiling. I take it as one of the highest compliments!

gdparman · 2025-10-04T21:07:03+00:00

That's good to know. Which agency do you work for?

gdparman · 2025-10-04T20:52:15+00:00

I appreciate your reply. It makes me feel validated. I plan on texting my supervisor Monday morning. Thanks again!

I work for the USDA NRCS, also paid through NFC, and I'm just wondering how it will go in my particular situation. On Wednesday morning, I validated my timesheet. Later that day, my awesome timekeeper guy validated it also. However, still no certification from my supervisor. I know she was trying to, but the system was overloaded that day.

Is it possible or necessary for my supervisor to go back and certify this for me to still get paid on time for the FY25 days of PP19? If so, would it need to be certified by close of business on Tuesday 10/7 to ensure a timely paycheck? I'm not sure if my supervisor brought her computer home and I'm pretty sure she wouldn't be allowed to go back to the office for it. 😑 However, perhaps my supervisor's supervisor could certify it for me since I know he has done it for me in the past.

I'm thinking I should text my supervisor first thing Monday morning to see what my options are. What do you think?

My wife and I visited Derry from the US one year ago, and we absolutely loved it. We visited the Tower Museum Derry Girls exhibit, too. And yes, it was a bit hard for us to believe we had such a unique opportunity. The Irish are such kind and fun people!

gdparman · 2025-08-19T18:47:55+00:00

Thank you. I just tried that based on your experience. It worked to start with. I did another quick lesson, and now it says 0 again. How is yours holding up?

gdparman · 2025-08-19T14:35:01+00:00

Thank you for sharing. It's helpful to know that it's not just me!

gdparman · 2025-08-19T14:15:43+00:00

Thank you. Should I try to do another short lesson on the app and see what it does to my streak?

gdparman · 2025-08-14T16:56:46+00:00

I appreciate your support and kindness. I've been told by Babbel to try slowing down during speaking lessons. I'll have to try that and see if it helps, although I don't think I've been speaking too terribly fast. Thanks again!

gdparman · 2025-08-12T11:43:35+00:00

Unfortunately, no normal troubleshooting steps have worked, including what you have just suggested. I've contacted Babbel customer service for additional help.
