• I am not sharing US Federal roles - with the ‘hiring freeze’, uncertainty, etc
• I am NOT associated with HR/recruiting in ANY way, these are NOT endorsements, there are no ‘referrals’ or the like for me, simply sharing SOME roles I have seen – in the hope that they are of use to someone
• I can't vet these roles (e.g., PLEASE do your ‘due diligence’ / use your judgement (with the hideous prevalence of ‘ghost jobs’, fraudulent so-called recruiters, etc)
• Further, roles listed simply as I ‘encounter’ them
• ZERO cost to access this list

[I used to shore dive in the Straits Of Juan de Fucca, Washington State side, and Crescent Lake - so I chose that area as a CoNED example to explore; good memories, including of the 18 Wheeler Burger with pie & coffee in Joyce, WA on drizzly days]

Sometimes You Get To Remotely Explore Some Spatial Stuff In A 'Very Different' Part Of The The World

[I visited Palau & Yap a long time ago, indeed our plane was hit by lightening, so we came into Palau without all the avionics, I am told - so this 'other end' view of Micronesia was a sweet reminder…]
[‘borrowed’ photos from those that HAVE visited Kosrae itself, me next please!]
