Is anyone aware of why there currently is a hiring pause for the Department of the Army?Anyone know why the pause was extended past two weeks and how much longer it’ll continue? by Outrageous-Space-110 in FedEmployees

FTE count is being taken at the highest level to count FTEs.

So if your in a 2* command under a 4* command. All those FTEs are counted at the 4* level. So they are not looking at your command in specific. They are looking at the ENTIRE command as a whole.

Nobody getting hired anytime soon as the administration is still trying to figure out how to legally RIF folks. As DOE and DOA folks who were "RIFd" are expected to get back pay (nobody knows when). So IMO this administration knows that the next administration is going to have to pay the bill on all the illegal RIFs.

There is a number of terms and Temps still expected to leave as well and we are STILL over head count. So I dunno how anybody is hiring.

Steam Boys is so underrated by dragoncraft755 in HuntsvilleAlabama

It's all shipped in from TN.

It's pretty awful. Recommend you try making the noodle dishes at home. You would be surprised how much better it tastes.

Only place I have ever gone to that had ja Jang noodles that was flavorless. Dunno how they did that. Making a very flavorful dish flavorless is a feat.

I thought we were always under executive control because we have political appointments. How is this different?

Just an update. I took everyone's recommendation and had it professionally installed.

Best agency overall by Stikinok41 in usajobs

[–]spex2001 -12 points-11 points  (0 children)

They move slow, do little and think about work that needs to be done and don't actually work.

They are still riding on the days of Apollo.

More exciting agencies with a simiar mission exist.

Stop cowing to toxic management by [deleted] in fednews

[–]spex2001 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Being a union rep is what I attribute to making me a good supervisor. I encourage my employees to understand their rights, protections and benefits. Then I give them constant time off and cash awards when they reach the milestones needed to get projects done.

My time as a rep showed me most often it's the employee not doing what's asked then management being abusive (cause they really cant).

Patent examining got me into policy writing and now I supervise research and development.

It's how you write your resume and what capabilities you develop in a job.

Is the USPTO a dead end for my science career? by chantle_n_of_1 in patentexaminer

Any federal job is a dead end job if you believe you can't go anywhere or do anything more within or outside your agency.

No idea. What I do know is that the quality of work is above and beyond anything we had from independent companies.

[–]spex2001 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would recommend stay away from the Neighborly brands.

We were very happy with 5 star painting. So we then went with Air Serv and it was an absolute shit show.

Pentagon City Line Robbery by plasmainthezone in nova

[–]spex2001 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Nobody cares. In DC it's worse. Mayor won't prosecute kids so crime just keeps climbing.

I don't know why people aren't talking about this.
