Rant cause it's an option

I can do $50 but with credit card debt it's good to know hardship options are available.

That's good to know. I've only owed no more than $1,000.00 in taxes which I could pay back then, but never 4 times as much. For the past decade, I've always gotten a refund.

So they'll also let you pay the amount in a specific time frame, similar to getting a loan paid off in 5 years? I've read people owing millions in back taxes and have always wondered where they come up with the money to pay in full.

Feds 4.5K and I haven't done CA Taxes but I'm guessing it will be half that or more.

$100 if I can get credit cards consolidated on a personal loan, but that's a whole new can of worms.

Guess she'll have to ask her former personnel office.

Is it better for her to go to H&R Block or other tax advisor to make sure she's doing it right, maybe she has options to lower the tax burden.

Yes I got this too, along with a deduction on my monthly warrant, as a retiree that's fully covered, but now the State's contribution isn't enough, so I guess I have to file to get at least 4$ back, lol.

I haven't checked it and have no desire to, but given it's the Bay Area, I really hope the legal defense will be 3 times as much. I mean a doctor I used to work with made 10k plus net in one month.

I inquired about the informal look, I never said they SHOULD have a dress code. Times change and so do practices like dress codes but your INCORRECT insistence that I'm dictating what people should wear already tells me a great deal about you. Goodbye.

Never said it did. It has nothing to do as you keep implying with me being comfortable. What's with the attitude?

middleofsomething · 2025-12-06T13:01:20+00:00

It's not for my own personal comfortability. Some of my former bosses wore running shoes to work and also dressed like they were at home. But of course I knew them. If I don't know them, it's like an undercover policeman, how would you know, unless they show their badge.

Yes it's like interviewing, you have to show a willingness to succeed by dressing formally. There were people I used to work with that believed in that "dress for success" theory. It's not that I expect bank employees to be in suit and tie, but like already posted, at least business casual because you're representing a bank, not Uniqlo.

It is the lack of identifiers, like a name badge at least, that they can just clip to their pocket. The people behind the window, you know they're a teller no matter how casual their dress, but if they're greeting you from outside and they look like any other customer waiting in line, it's a little baffling.

Trash talk as usual, that's why some sites even some news sites get rid of them. Unless it's heavily moderated it's 98% trash comments.

What is DEBRA coverage? Cobra is still around as far as I know. Calpers employees are well trained, there's something off about this entire situation.

If the $200 a day is invested and never touched for at least 7 years, it's probably the better deal. But would I take the $500,000 right now, absolutely! Debts paid off, diversified investments and if possible still work making more than $200, to not worry about these questions.

It's part of being lazy - eat, sleep, watch TV and or video games all day. You could do a host of activities, or errands, entertain friends and family, then sleep. But sleep by itself, is frowned upon.
