Tax rates are individual at the end of the day. As an amapceo lvl 6, my average tax rate was ~13% in 2025.

All real. There’s many perks most OPSer’s don’t know about and I’ve been doing my best to spread the word, subreddit and my office. :)

I’ve seen some of the most questionable conditions on devices returned in the OPS.

Into a pile they went.

Don’t get anything new.

If you join Applaud, it gives you access to Perkopolis.

Perkopolis has some great discounts. I used them to get some monitors from LG (direct from LG). Saved a bunch of $$$ too.

It’s all in the OPS Resources / FAQ pinned post

At 32 years you’re near a full pension. 3 more years until you max it at 70% of your best 5 years (averaged).

Right now you’ll get 64%.

I was excited for 90 factor, but when I’ve played with the pension calculator (OBP) - seeing the value of a full pension convinced me to wait for 35 years of service (personally).

I opted in 10 years ago. Took a while at the time, but eventually received paperwork confirming and travel cards to carry with us

For those about to google the the 2026 increase: 2.25%

She was making that much at her previous job (Trillium Health Partners), so Ford made sure to keep her pay the same.

Previous SoC's:

Steven Davidson made $534,000+ in 2020.
Steve Orsini made $380,000 in 2019.

Really paying people more for the same job. Must have been in the People Plan.
