Accepted a new job today
I lost my job in August 2012 when the Chemical Depot shut down (mission complete), and went on severance pay until December 2012 when I took a pay cut to a GS-7 Program Assistant (admin assistant), and then in January 2015 I took a pay cut again to eliminate commute time (my drive each way went from two hours to 30 minutes).

Well today at the place where I have been working since Jan 2015 (McNary Lock & Dam in Umatilla, OR) I accepted a position back at the GS 7 level as a supply technician (purchasing agent). I don't have a start date yet, but I am sure it will be in the next month or so as it took a while from my resume to be accepted until I got an interview.

So new adventures ahead, and I will be able to pay off some debt a little sooner.

My best to all of you, and Para thank you for running such a tight ship.

Dave

Good for you! I was under employed for a period after 9/11. It sucked. Glad you're back on your feet!

Good news! Congrats!


"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible."
