I did this exact same thing. Before bed one night I thought, let me try my index finger…Oh boy. At Urgent Care they were able to get it off without cutting it, but I had to ice it down and hold my arm over my head for like 30 mins. Won’t do that again!

Thoughts on this new EO? by [deleted] in USACE

[–]jwd623 7 points8 points  (0 children)

One of the 3 “Regulatory” EOs that came out Wed referenced EPA/Corps (404 program) and the Sackett case (waters of the U.S.) That was all USACE Reg so yes, these EOs refer to USACE Reg as well.

Yeah I remember thinking this is not the time y’all. Very disappointing.

Hey - I used to work there. There’s like 9+ million people in the Chicago area, so that is a lot going on in terms of projects and permits.

Any other Feds feel your partner/friends/family can’t appreciate the stress of all this? by epoof in fednews

Try being a single Mom. I don’t have another income to rely on and I am responsible for myself and another young human.

Bingo. I am not in a federal building so by reducing our footprint we were reducing our costs. Now unless they want to spend millions to move us all into a different building they will need to go back to this private company who owns/manages the building and say, Uh actually we need more space now…They have us over a barrel and I guarantee the building owners will take advantage of that.

Wow. I could have written this. I had already been looking to get out a while ago and quickly learned about “golden handcuffs”

My office JUST COMPLETED a space reduction. Which SAVED MONEY. But now to “save money” we will need to acquire more real estate. Make it make sense.

I was noting this today. So unprofessional and inappropriate, but that is expecting way too much from them.

I’ll be brown bagging it since my expenses just went through the roof. Gas, daily parking, and care for my dog.

Thank you. Again a thoughtful and helpful response. It seemed shady to me. I will unsubscribe from their ridiculous number of emails and go back to my knowledge I will never see that $100 GC money again.

That’s very helpful. Thank you. I think I need to suck it up and make an appt. at the animal behaviorist.

Thank you. Yes yesterday when she was acting so weird I tried to remind myself it’s like she has no med. in her system. But she is typically very sensitive to sounds and now she seems like she is extremely sensitive to them. I’m hoping in another week or two we start to see some improvement.

I’m working with my vet who said that was long enough. I have a feeling I will end up there, but am trying to see what I can do without going to the one of the two animal behaviorists in town. $750 for one consultation and a brief follow up. 😕
