D2- The most I know is that your pay starts at GS10 plus 25% of the base if you opt into being “always ready,” training is in VA, work odd hours, and do security for international prime ministers/presidents for when they come to the states. If I was single, I’d probably go for it

The actual job sounds kind of boring, right? I remember seeing them at the K-Bay gym for Obama. They would go in, inspect the place, and then just stand around or whatever, and then he would maybe show up. So these dudes would get up extra early, stand around most of the day, and then also no have Christmas vacation. One team just patrolled the shore in a boat - sounds cool for like fifteen minutes. Cynical viewpoint.

Anyone have any experience working with The Mom Project in Chicago? I had a recruiter reach out to me and I’m a little concerned that they know I’m a mother when I keep that info pretty close ...

the main partner I work for hasn’t been giving me consistent enough work (or type I want) so while I work for him still on some deals, I’ve had to go and get other work from other partners. He doesn’t regularly check in on what I’m working on. He keeps volunteering me for projects without checking if I have capacity and if he expected to know everything I’m working on… he would’ve thought I was just doing nothing the last 2 months. I don’t know how to address this workload balancing with him!
