Some of us still work for a living.

(I guess it means I am one of those paying for those checks)

 

I am still working, I'm an essential employee, even got the letter to prove it if I get pulled over.

Congratulations.  I was labelled an "essential employee" when VA had a weather lockdown but I was still supposed to go to work.  They never gave me a letter because the location was secret although anyone could follow me and see where I worked.

 

I can imagine conversation with Police Officer (PO) is stopped:

PO: Are you aware Mr. Host that the State of Virginia is under a weather lockdown

Me: The government has determined my work is essential and I need to report for my shift. Person replacing is ending 12 hour shift.

PO: Which government Mr. Host?

Me: Federal Government, US Government

PO: Did they provide you a letter?

Me: No.

PO: What agency?

Me: I am not at liberty to tell (still can't)

PO: That is not acceptable Mr. Host

Me: I can give you my supervisor number

PO: We he tell me?

Me: I don't know but that is his call not mine.

PO: How do I know who this person is?

Me: Caller ID?

PO: That is not sufficient

Me: You can follow me. I cannot stop you.

PO: Are you trying to be funny?

Me: No. I am just that anyone could find out that way and I cannot say anymore per law.

PO: I will give you a citation and you are to return home immediately with no stops.

 

 

I was also labelled essential for Haiti.  I worked on the system used by Army's XVIII Airborne Corps, headquarters of the United States Army Special Operations Command, which oversees the U.S. Army 1st Special Forces Command (Airborne) and 75th Ranger Regiment and a lot more groups.

I was given notice I had to report to Ft. Bragg for "indefinite duration".  I told my boss our contract does not work that way.

My boss, a retired colonel in ARMY, told me they are not kidding and the Chief of Staff of the Army has a letter stating you are essential for efforts and if you do not go MPs will pick you up and you will be paid whatever government decides not current pay scale.

I found out when I got there the US was invading Haiti and I needed to keep system used for deployment working 100% of the time.

Supposedly it will be direct deposited in the account where your tax refund is deposited.  I haven’t gotten a tax refund deposited in a few years.  Lately I’ve owed a little bit after doing my taxes.  I wonder if that means I’ll get a check in the mail.

Did you pay by check or bank withdrawl?

 

As long as the IRS has your routing and account numbers on file they will direct deposit.  Otherwise they will mail a check

Who pays for Pornhub?  Free stuff not working for you anymore?

 

Still waiting for mine.  Should  get direct deposited but not completely sure.  I don't need it right now, but I'll need it to pay my taxes, I think.

Purpose of this post was to show off your porn charges, not your stimulus ?

 

 

Wait, Redtube AND Pornhub?

 

I want to personally thank Jack for helping to keep these services alive, for free.

Got mine and still working.  I know that this is not how it is to be used, but I plan on donating the majority of mine.  Part to the local food bank and part to World Food Kitchen.

 

 

Bravo!

This is crazy. My wife is retired but I’m still working and we have health insurance, and we got $2,400. Meanwhile the most needy are still waiting for a paper check. We don’t need it or want it. Think about all the people like us who got money we didn’t need.

 

We’re going to give half to the Food Bank of CNY to start, and check for other charities that could use the rest.

Love how Treasury is spelled wrong.

 

I'm just going to throw this back into the home equity line... don't really need it but I'm on the front line so thanks.
