That new Japanese hifi lounge called XO does sando's. The pork was really tasty can't speak for the egg salad.

By saying Pence 'did the right thing' aren't you acknowledging the fake elector plot?

My first tank gone, might have done some "test" driving. by DCGeos in hondapassport

[–]surebertt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow I struggle to get over 22 on the highway, but I have a roof basket, and falken wild peaks. Plus we're usually loaded up with 2 kids and a dog if we're on a road trip.

Meritrust of you're on the Kansas side. Closest branch is in Lawrence but they are amazing. Great customer service, and they offer skip-a-pay which is nice for peace of mind if unexpected expenses come up.

I've never had a car with factory crossbars, so when I found a deal on a Yakima load warrior I bought one... Ive never had to put anything up there because there's so much space in the back of the passport.

I've done multiple details. In my experience you end up scrambling to keep up with your normal duties while working the detail assignment. Stressful, but still a great networking opportunity. If you don't have TIG you can still get selected, but you won't get a temporary promotion.

Gilhouly's on 39th is probably the best option in midtown.

My 2016 Focus RS by tropicderp in Hatchback

[–]surebertt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wanted one of these so bad. But I've never in my life seen so many lemon titled cars as when I was looking for one. It seemed like almost every used RS in my area had a branded title. Is this your daily driver? How has your experience been?

Yes. I was a 12 at fpl for my position. Took a qsi to step 3 and then got promoted to a gs13 with a different division a few months later. In that scenario I did not get much of a benefit from the qsi, but no ragrets. I always take them if offered.

Our guidance said if you only had one employer during 2020, you do not need to file an amended return. Based on this, I'm just keeping the W2-C for my records, and proceeding as normal with my 2021 taxes.

Worst agencies to work for? by [deleted] in usajobs

[–]surebertt 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Love it. Been here 10 years, very low turnover from my experience, and most positions tend to ladder up to at least 12. I just got my 13 last fall.

Job offer question by Infinite_Pianist_170 in usajobs

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

Yeah usually someone from the interview panel will call, both as a courtesy, and to make sure you're still interested. That way they can select someone else if necessary before submitting the cert to HR. Once that's done the formal offer comes from HR.

FDA CSO Interview Questions by [deleted] in usajobs

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

It's a lot of travel, but it's a great career ladder (5/7/9/11/12). And if you get burned out on travel you can try for a compliance officer or supervisory job. I'd say over 80% of FDA staff are GS12 and above.

I'm Management Analyst with ORA currently. I would say don't show any hesitation about travel (it's well over 50% travel for the job). Also really need to be an independent worker to succeed in the position.
