[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No fed I know, including me, has enough money to take a vacation when we don't know when we will be paid. It's staycation all the way.

OP, you must have some family money, or be a really old DC area fed who is still working, to be able to afford a second house in the mountains. [/quote]

Some feds save and don't live paycheck to paycheck so yeah, a vacation is possible.[/quote]

So feds buying a vacation home in the mountains as well as a home in the DC area? Nope, not unless you have other money or are much older,  like 70+.

We have enough money saved to take a vacation and don't live paycheck or paycheck, but who would do that when you don't know when you will get paid again, unless you are single and don't own a house?

It's more likely some feds will use the time to find a higher paying industry job. It's a revolving door at my agency, especially with RTO. [/quote]

You do realize it is possible to take a vacation without having a vacation home. [/quote]

OP specifies their own mountain vacation home. [/quote]

Op also asks for other ideas which could include ideas from people who do not own vacation homes but still vacation.[/quote]

The point is OP is clearly in different financial category than most Fed workers simply by fact she owns a mountain home.

So it’s a hobby job to her trust or breadwinner DH, so she is fine blowing it off and not getting paid.

For many Feds in this region, we have to work and have delayed pay.  And no mountain home or breadwinner spouse to support us. [/quote]
