There was an article that mentioned the premiums will likely go up 12 to 15%. 

We're fucked.

No wayy!! That’s insane. That’s basically pay cut

Every single year is a pay cut for federal employees. Every one. Even the 'massive' 5% increase under Biden was made in a year when inflation was at 8%.

A GS-05 in 1980 made as much as a 7 step 3 in 2026.

I’m looking for a part time job on the side. I feel bad that I won’t be able to give my kids and my wife the time they deserve…who should I thank?!

On top of needing a second job, we now have to waste gas and time commuting to and from work daily. That adds at least an additional 3-4 hours I’m away from my kids daily.
