I work for the DOD and the pay system is going to be changed completely in 2006 (starting to be more than a rumor). It is unknown what will change in actual pay. Right now they got rid of some special pay tables for the engineers that cost a couple of my friends about 6G a year because they got their promotions about 3 months after I did. If my temporary promotion isn't made permanent (only and issue because of the new pay system) I will not get my current pay grade back and be in the 6G less category, that will bug me a bit to be certain
. Because my temp promotion puts me into a higher pay band in the new pay system, I expect all of the temp promotions will be taken away prior to the change and then who knows. Other than I work with a ton of baboons
and the pay system is bogus
, I really can't complain about my job.
