OPM Disability Retirement for Federal Employees: The compromised life

March 20, 2017

We all make them, though we deny it. Iconoclasts scorn it; the extremes of either side scoff at it; and, in the end, it reflects the reality of who we are, how we live, and by what vaunted principles we purportedly possess. On a theoretical level, it is easy to remain the stalwart – that singular entity standing on principle and commitment. The one who has never experienced war – to express beliefs of “courage”, “unwavering loyalty” and blind bravery declared in wrappings of the flag and national identity. […]

FERS & CSRS Disability Retirement: False Positives

March 17, 2017

We demand that a “retest” be done, to ensure that the result did not have the opposite effect. It is a linguistic conundrum that the affirmative means its negative; for, in medicine, a “positive” result is the worst of news, whereas in most every other context, it is a welcomed declarative. But because it is a result which is not embraced with delight, we ask that it be further verified in the event that the “positive” is a false one, and we want it instead to not be a true one, and thus ask for a retest in order to see whether the second one will result in a true negative, which is the opposite of a true positive in hopes that the first positive result is a false one.

OPM Medical Retirement: Of Vultures Riding the Currents of Time

April 29, 2015

Watch the vultures float the currents of time, gliding high above, awaiting a trail of destruction behind. Universally, across the globe, they have similar outward appearances; with wide wingspans for the ability to soar and patiently await high above, watchful for death and decay to progressively come to fruition. Is it the scent of decay, or the fading gaze of death which attracts? Or, perhaps, weakness and state of debilitation has a natural aura which draws? […]

OPM Disability Retirement Lawyer: The Happiness Principle

April 25, 2015

A society’s trending obsession is often reflected by the backdrop of books written, published and popularized in culture corridors of mass media; and so the Oprah of timeless celebration never loses its luster for belated works attempting to keep pace with the commercialization of principles which once may have been considered seriously. […]

OPM Medical Retirement Law: The Time In-Between, Afterwards

April 7, 2015

That time, as a historical event, is quite different from the retrospective vantage point of what we perceive today; and that is good to keep in mind. After the event itself, the followers were not waiting around for the next event; rather, they were likely scrambling to determine what to do next, as they had no foresight of the coming circumstances, and thus did not consider themselves to be “in-between” two major historical pillars awaiting the next condition for completion. […]

Federal Disability Retirement: The Usual Dialogue

March 19, 2015

Much of our daily dialogue is determined by rote repetition. Discourse throughout a typical day need not be given much thought; breakfast routine; interaction with colleagues and coworkers; declarative statements which have been repeated hundreds of times, both by one’s own voice as well as by others; salutations which require merely an audible sound; and the sun sets upon another closure of human inertia. […]

Federal Disability Retirement: Affirmative Steps

March 16, 2015

Procrastination is the bane of progress; by delaying and kicking the proverbial can down the road, the chances of decreasing one’s odds of accomplishment become magnified exponentially. What is the reasoning behind inaction and inertia? Human life must by necessity involve movement and progress; for, unlike other species who find the immediacy of satisfaction and gratification to be the basis of existential justification, we bring to the fore the coalescence of one’s memory of where we came from; a future hope of where we want to go; and in combing the […]
