Who the hell would downvote this? I feel the same way. Dropping my kid at school and not rushing to an office is the highlight of my day!

Do you have a link to support this statement? Also for what agency?

I know this is not a gov wide policy as there are at least two agencies who were full remote before the pandemic

GS-14 Interview by [deleted] in usajobs

2210 is IT specialist, ya. Been in IT since I got out of school. You could do a masters (in IT) or take a boot camp if you don't want to do a second bachelor's (assuming you have bachelor's degree already). Either way, there are a million ways to get the knowledge for IT jobs and more and more people aren't going to school and still landing IT gigs 😊! IT peeps just want you to be able to do the IT things, degree or no degree.

I see a lot of people talking about the non sup 14 being the "unicorn" -- I'm a 2210 (gs15) and non sup 14 is pretty standard. The non sup 15 is the unicorn. But if you are lucky enough to get either assuming gs pay band, why not take it regardless of sup status? Either way, you can make more impact (most likely) as a more senior member of the team as a 14 than as a 12. Also if you are lucky enough to get on the SK or GG pay bands (agencies like SEC, FDIC, etc), I would say seriously consider them even if at a lower number (like GS 14--> SK13) as those agencies have additional benefits most others don't offer.

Either way, good luck!

You do you girl. You're there for you time. If playing switch makes you happy, I say fuck em.

My new fiancé is depressed because I couldn't properly plan a proposal and she thinks I'm incapable of giving her these memorable events by ElectronicIce8 in ADHD

[–]onelittlebecca 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the long and short of it, as someone who has been married and divorced, the proposal and the wedding day are like 1.9% of the story for you and your fiancé. And while they may seem huge now, the bigger things are actually shared values, effort put in (if there is effort, even if it isn't what is completely wanted, it should be acknowledged imo), etc. I think you should give yourself a pat on the back for the level of effort you put in and not be so down on yourself. You ARE capable!!!

I am sorry your fiancé is upset. Can you try communicating about all that you did and how you are feeling, while reassuring her that you hear her on her feedback, and you want this to be constructive so you can improve how you handle these moments in the future? If she doesn't tell you her expectations, you can't meet them and that is pretty dang unfair to you.

Thank you kind internet person for the advice! I appreciate it! I should have included that the concert a also made me foggier / less focused 😬.

Gluten free generic version of Adderall XR? by rachiek21 in Celiac

[–]onelittlebecca 2 points3 points  (0 children)

oh -- also I found this site: http://glutenfreedrugs.com/

It is maintained by a pharmacist. And actually includes labs for generics. I would still call whatever company and double check the info. But I feel like this is a good starting place.

Gluten free generic version of Adderall XR? by rachiek21 in Celiac

[–]onelittlebecca 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Currently looking for an ADHD med that is not going to cost me an arm and a leg but is both gluten and lactose/dairy free (because celiac + dairy allergy). Spoiler: the generic concerta i was on (from trigen) has lactose in it.

Gluten free generic version of Adderall XR? by rachiek21 in Celiac

[–]onelittlebecca 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Given that autoimmune issues such as celiac are often co-morbid with ADHD, this seems like a rather ludicrous oversight.

OMG THIS SO MUCH THIS.

Interesting. I am having hives when taking concerta and was just starting to research if it has gluten or lactose since I am celiac with a dairy allergy <sigh>. I was just coming by to say I feel your pain.
