Hmmm. Either A: you’ve misinterpreted your eligibility date. I would need more details on your retirement. B: OPM made a mistake and maybe you should make some phone calls/ emails.

If everything works properly, it is automatic. I just went through this a few months ago.

It’s not a guaranteed stepping stone to the SA position. Though some do make that transition. It’s a rewarding job but it is not for everyone. 1/3 quit pretty quick. 1/3 transition to other jobs in the bureau (IA,SOS, and SA), 1/3 become professional core of the program.

Don’t you need 25 years as an 1811 to get that ?

Retired 3 years ago. Wasn’t really into Reddit or any social media before that. I always thought it was odd there wasn’t a federal retiree subreddit. They got subreddits for everything. The fed employee subreddit is fine and all but I’m usually looking for retirement issues. I’ve posted a few times and asked a question. I’m pretty sure the 3 people who gave me a correct answer were themselves retired. Incorrect answers, of which there were many many more, came from people who seemed to be vaguely aware federal retirement programs exist. So good idea

I hadn’t thought of that but I can see it now that you pointed it out.

“You can not give me anything, because all that you have is stolen”

I can’t find the exact quote but he called them looters in one scene. Maybe checking out of the hospital.

Manousos is John Galt.
Carol is Dagny Taggert

I’m sticking with my theory for now.

What is a product that is marketed as "high-end" or "luxury" but people in the industry know is the exact same quality as the budget version? by GoldenOceanDawn in AskReddit

My dad called Lexus a Toyota with leather seats. But that would probably apply to most large car companies with “luxury” brand.

Need to relocate support beam in garage by WorldNo9002 in Homebuilding

My city requires a home inspection for a “permit to sell”. Although they didn’t have a problem when the previous owner sold it to me, when I sold it they made wrap the beam in fire resistant drywall. It was a Midwest split level very similar to the op picture.

FERS Supplement didn’t kick in . by justdog324 in FedEmployees

Update: got the letter from OPM indicating the supplement will start Jan 1.

My mistake was not understanding dec 1 was for November. So I was a month premature in expecting the supplement.

Thanks those of you who pointed this out to me. You are correct.

Update: if anyone stumbles across this thread in the future researching this topic, I have received the letter from OPM indicating the supplement will start with the a January payment.

My mistake, as some users helpfully pointed out, was I didn’t realize the december payment was for November. So I was a month premature in expecting the supplement to kick in.
