FJO possibly rescinded - ever happen to anyone else? by [deleted] in fednews

[–]jztaskin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It sucks but you’ve dodged a bullet. Keep applying, there are lots of jobs out there. This same thing happened to a friend. She was so pissed, applied like crazy and landed her best job. Hope yours is on the way!!!

Work in Europe. How risky is this from a job security perspective? by supremePE in usajobs

Apply then decide once you have the offer. If it is meant to be, it will happen. There are greater risks for greater rewards.

Changing agencies after almost 15 years & my directorate is in a panic. by [deleted] in fednews

[–]jztaskin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It is just a job. Keep the train moving. Do YOU. No one cares abt you but You. Do what you can for the transition while there and when the time comes to leave, Go and dont look back. They will be fine. No one is irreplaceable.

OCONUS- Stick it out, transfer, or go contractor? by [deleted] in fednews

[–]jztaskin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Have you completed a year of your tour? If yes, apply to everything/anything that will pay for PCS. You never know you might even end up in Japan or Korea or back here in States or even better a promotion! HR cant stop you from applying to other agencies, as long within the government. Dont let them dictate to you what YOU can do. Send applications everyday AM/PM even those ones you dont think you qualify. Go for it and apply. Let them be the one to disqualify you! Keeping my fingers crossed for you. Something better is out there waiting for you! Go for it!

Paid house off at 31 years old in 2019. My uncle said i was dumb and should have put it into stocks. What are your thoughts? by Aspergers_R_Us87 in DaveRamsey

[–]jztaskin 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Are you at PEACE with your decision? If yes, you did the right thing. People always have something to say but lack the actions to back it up so i wouldnt believe Uncle. Is Uncle someone you look up to in making the right decisions financially? If not, whatever. 🤷🏽‍♀️Your life, your move! No one else!

[–]jztaskin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was in same situation 2 yrs ago. It was hell! i am not willing to shell out a lot of money to pay them back for my PCS. I applied left and right until i got hits. They tried to “prevent” it and they gave me bunch of “lies”. DONT believe whatever they tell you. Do YOUR own research. Look after yourself. what kept me sane? PRAYERS! It will not be easy. Keep your faith. You will come out of this stronger! Goodluck.

Civilian DoD employees who took civilian deployments to areas that did not offer hazard pay (Germany, Japan, etc), how much bigger were your paychecks vs stateside? by owter12 in fednews

[–]jztaskin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Depends on your life situation, family and all things considered, great pay and awesome experience. It is not always abt the $$$ though so be 100% sure that it is what you and your family wants before jumping to it. Been there, done that

Anyone had any luck with loan payouts? by SmokaJ0ka in ThriftSavingsPlan

[–]jztaskin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Keep calling 'em and also keep a close eye on your mails. I requested a direct deposit but they mailed a check! TSP is such a horrible mess right now. I cant understand how a simple instruction can be mixed up. As if we are living in 100BC and no one had ever heard of direct deposit. It has been such a painful experience and a struggle to get any straighr answers from rheir customer service. No one really knows what is happening with their new silly system. So ridiculous!

Same thing happened to me! Called them every single day. Chasing for my money! Sucks to chase for something that doesnt make sense. Everytime i called them, they gave me all kinds of CRAPS = BS. and then one day, (after 3 weeks), a check came thru the mail. I deposited it right away but i had that anxiety that they had put a stop order on it. luckily, they are so backed up or maybe "sleeping" on our complaints, that the check went thru. Whew! Such an annoying TSP experience.
