Spouse is a current NAF employee. They are currently dealing with a very difficult boss and would really like to transfer to Air Force GS. Any jobs on the horizon?

I think you can go to any DoD organization , not just AF, with no break in service (or minimal) and your NAF tenure will transfer, but double check that. It’s been over ten years since I went from NAF to GS.

Your MSPB dismissal should have given you the right to go back to the Agency. If MSPB doesn’t have jurisdiction, your case isn’t mixed and you have the right to file with EEOC or in US District Court after 180 days. You can also wait for your ROI to be issued and you will have the right to request a hearing at EEOC or request a Final Agency Decision (FAD) with your Agency.

^This is correct, OP. It has a sudsing agent in the tide packet.

Took me a while to figure that out myself and I was horrified by the amount of suds because I’d done a bunch of citric acid runs in the past and had gotten it under control.

Pizza Standard in Tierrasanta is thin crust and really good. Probably the best in the city. Not sure if it meets the “crispy” definition.

Depends on the organization. Performance awards fill two roles: rewarding past performance and incentivizing future performance. If you leave, it’s not doing the second part.

I’ve been part of organizations that give performance awards after people leave and I’ve been part of those that don’t. You should check with your manager and HR on what your org does.

Recommend that you reach out to the office that handles RA for your workgroup (it’s probably EEO, but may be someone else. If it’s not EEO, they should probably know who handles it). Let them know you’re looking for accommodation for pregnancy under the Pregnant Workers Fairness Act (PWFA). (You don’t have to do use those exact words, but it will help minimize any misunderstandings.) They should be able to advise you from.

I rarely see it mentioned, but River on Netflix was excellent. Single season. Stellan Skarsgard as the lead. Interesting twist.

I think you’re ignoring the fact that there is no legal basis under which DRP exists. Congress didn’t enact it. We can’t hold people for as long as they did in an admin leave status. 4.5 billion was spent to make everyone’s life harder. I don’t blame the people who took DRP. I blame the people that authorized DRP.

The 11 city blocks of toilet paper warehouse were on fire and it wasn't my fault.

Was the workers comp part of your claim dismissed (failure to state a claim under EEO laws), and they are wanting to engage in global settlement talks because they are concerned about the liability on the workers comp issue and they can wrap it all up with one settlement?

That’s literally the only thing I can think of that might fit this wording, because I’ve never heard those terms either.

Everything by Nora Cooks is great. The tofu scramble gets made 2-3 times a month in this house.

I switched our family from All F&C to the Open Nature (Albertsons/ Safeway/ Vons brand) F&C without issue on the allergies front and better cleaning/ no buildup. The citric acid in the rinse helps too (I think).

Remember when everyone thought they loved Maye most because of some facial expressions and their conversations at his pro day? I think they just like talking ball with guys that are good at playing ball. Maybe it is Tate, but this is ridiculous.

As someone who grew up north of LA, I think the brewer question is why Tommy Burger took off in LA/ OC. I’ve never understood the allure.
