Good. I plan to apply even though I already work for the govt
Are there different branches with powerful rings?
Yeah but no one likes “heart” branch.
But you can talk to monkee
I am absolutely applying. Fuck UPS and the POS who run it. Not even union, but that corporation has some real snakes, and I know it's universal across that company and all large corporations, at minimum.
Sign me up.
It’s also nice to see news in this sub that is politics and policy related outside of the daily MAGA driven shit-spiral news cycle we tune into everyday.
Send them over to properly insulate my house, install energy efficient windows and put in one of those nifty high efficiency heat pump hot water heaters. Let my tax dollars pay for it instead of more needless military spending. Create the trades workers we need through this program, and offer it with paid training, covered by my tax dollars.
I don’t know why, but going straight to demanding them come fix up your asset seems like a weirdly entitled first step to take to me. I’m not saying you’re selfish, but the way you phrased this just irked me.
yeah I may have phrased it in an off way. I just want a program to bring the costs down to a manageable level, and build up a workforce of contractors to do home repairs. It's been impossible to find contractors. I'd like my tax dollars to go to programs to train people in the trades, not to military spending
Great news, I'm glad Biden made this happen.
Where can I apply?
right on the gov website, just not yet.
So I'm tentatively retired and pursuing SSDI. Climate Corps would be the agency I'd try my absolute hardest to get healthy enough mentally so I could work again
I wonder if they have positions one can work via telecommuting. As a quadriplegic, there are not many jobs I can work due to my obvious physical shortcomings.
