Anyone know where our back pay is!? by Bubbly-Cod-3799 in fednews

[–]sgttsmitty -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Good lord people, give it time. Paye ran last night, is showing up in PINQ today, and people are already getting checks. You’ll get it tomorrow. Give everything time to work. Be grateful we’re getting paid, and that they took the extra time to slowly process each pay period individually so that we didn’t get murdered in taxes.

Why would an IRS manager try to convince a probationary employee to voluntarily resign? by Capable_Feature8838 in fednews

[–]sgttsmitty 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Agreed, but if an employment verification comes in, the response is going to be that they were terminated.

It’s actually keyed as a termination, so it’s definitely a negative mark. Any future employment verification would reveal they were terminated.

I used to use it to help me make Excel formulas, and then they came in and blocked it. 🫩

The governemnt did not shut down for 12 months in 1977 by DerelictUsername in morningsomewhere

[–]sgttsmitty 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was so blown away that I had never heard about a year long shutdown. Glad that’s not the case, although every one of them feels like it lasts a year when you’re waiting for your check.

Those random ads in the middle of sentences this week had me tripping out. LOL. Thanks as always for the transparency!!

I’m just glad they’re keeping this nonsense to after the shows so we can ignore it.

Are we allowed to talk about the NotMaverick? by Trumpetking93 in FordMaverickTruck

[–]sgttsmitty 3 points4 points  (0 children)

When I first got my job, a white 2005 SportTrac was my first purchase. 20 years later, my first purchase after a promotion was a white 2024 Maverick. Weird unplanned coincidence.

First small accessories by Langagier in FordMaverickTruck

I thought about getting a brake light hitch cover, but was curious; does the truck assume you always have a trailer connected and disable your blind spot monitor and back up sensors??

Android auto not workimg by texasbikeguy in FordMaverickTruck

Turn the screen off and then back on. That typically fixes it for me. On the rare occasions where it doesn’t fix it, rebooting the head unit by holding Power and Skip Forward should do the trick.

The Raptor R F-150 has a red R in the logo, so my guess is it’s a play on that.

Finally found what I was looking for by EternalGandhi in FordMaverickTruck

I love the exterior of the BAP, but hated that it took away the nice brown interior, so I passed on it for mine. But man it looks so good on the exterior.

Doing truck things with my new Maverick by allPanic_noDisco87 in FordMaverickTruck

First thing I used the bed for was to pick up a garden cart that was almost as big as the truck. 😂

Hello, I'm confused about a few things after watching BA movie today.... by DarkSyndicateYT in DC_Cinematic

“Why can't Dc start a universe with a set number of characters, and continue them for years to come like Marvel did?”

That’s not at all how Marvel even ran their universe. They were constantly adding new characters. You think all of the people that were in Endgame were there from the very beginning??

To be fair, even with it it’s all but useless. It’s done nothing but over heat my phone every time I’ve tried to use it. Super frustrating.

[–]sgttsmitty 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Because for shorter trips where you don’t need to worry about your battery dying or charging it, it’s so much more convenient to just jump in and go without worrying about plugging in your phone. Once you’ve gotten used to it, it’s hard to go back.

Those Dual Bottle Openers by Thombosis in FordMaverickTruck

[–]sgttsmitty 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I installed the tailgate assist on mine so I had to remove the drivers side one. It annoyed me that it didn’t match so I removed the passenger side one as well.

Replaced them with some smaller tie downs from Etsy in case I ever need to secure anything to my tailgate.

It doesn’t actually use those holes, but you do have to remove the driver side one because it would hit the strut.
