    Saving Electronic Official Personnel File (e-OPF) at retirement?

    I did. IIRC I downloaded one large PDF with everything but I found it very hard to find anything in that file. So I downloaded them one at a time, added the date to the beginning of the name, and e-mailed them home a few at a time. Thumb drives were not allowed to be used in agency owned...

    What do you want to talk about?

    Shoulda finished the round.(easy for me to say) Record broken for the number of days over 110F was in 1974. 18 days in 74 v 31 in 2023. Political part: we shoulda bought those credits sorta offered by someone back in 2006 or so. It would be cooler today, right? OK, sarcasm. Sure start a...

    Tsunami's Account Talk

    Sorry to hear that your cruise didn’t go well. I haven’t been on one for 9 years and that was Holland America. Wife did a Royal Carribbean Southampton UK to NJ and said it was not as good as in the past. Complaints about wifi and cell phone and service in general. I am booked on Norwegian Pearl...
