I edited out the window dressing; here's the important stuff:<br /><br />Dear TRS Member:<br /><br />According to our records, you may be receiving the upcoming retroactive payment under the United Federation of Teachers contract.<br /><br />The Department of Education has informed TRS that this payment will be made on October 15, 2018.<br /><br />If you participate in TRS' Tax-Deferred Annuity (TDA) Program, this payment is an opportunity to make a "painless" one-time deposit into your TDA account.<br /><br />By increasing your TDA contribution rate (the percentage of your pay that you invest in TDA) in advance, you can invest even more for your retirement.<br /><br />Changes to your TDA contribution rate normally take effect about 30-45 days after you elect the change on our website, so here are the dates to remember:<br /><br />When You Make Your Rate Change Online<br />When the Change Takes Effect in Your Pay<br /><br />Through 8/31<br />9/30 (one paycheck before the retro payment)<br /><br />9/1 through 9/15<br />10/15 (when the retro payment is scheduled)<br /><br />9/16 or later<br />10/31 or later (too late for the retro payment)TJLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15080823411092014871noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20674128.post-79594094972914138682018-08-29T15:50:51.707-04:002018-08-29T15:50:51.707-04:00Wednesday a quarter to 4.

Our host makes numerous grammatical errors and they are rightfully ignored by the community as most of us realize the true point of being on here is to help and support each other.<br />My post was close to 400 words and all you could do was point out typos that are all but unavoidable when using a cell? So while I'm here, let's have a look at the dozen or so glaring,bonehead rookie goofs in your 30 word response, shall we?<br />First sentence: Failed to capitalize NYC(names as well as abbreviations of cities are to be in caps, buddy)<br />Next sentence:"Your" needed to be capitalized since it was the first word in a new sentence, ace, but that's not all, later you failed to place a comma,thus separating the items "horrible", and "felonious,"as commas are required when separating items in a sentence, professor.<br />Next sentence:Once again the "you" in "you have" should have been capitalized since it was the first word of a new sentence- still don't get it yet,hang in there, much you need to learn, You then go on to use numbers instead of correctly writing out all ordinal and cardinal numbers up to twelfth,well played, Skywalker.<br />Last sentence,where to begin? 1.Failed for the fifth time in as many sentences to capitalize the first word of a sentence. 2. Failed to capitalize "God",both impudent as it is disrespectful 3. Used the contextulally incorrect possessive "your" instead of the correct contraction of "you are",which is written "you're",and then,(at least you're consistent) failed again to capitalize NYC. Finally, as if to confirm your stupidity,you use triple exclamation marks, a habit confirmed by academics as futile,chidish, attention-seeking and pathetic.<br />So besides not willing (you have nothing of value to say) or not able(you are an incompetent) to engage properly on a public forum, at least your post provides the world a towering exemplar of your high command of the conventions of standard English,my sincere congratulations.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20674128.post-1962545116975057182018-08-28T13:30:00.985-04:002018-08-28T13:30:00.985-04:00Tuesday 130 pm.

This occurs, based on how much is taken out of each paycheck. Therefore, if you have been putting in the max, the lump sum payment will probably put you at the limit in October or November.Chazhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09964739497720364749noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20674128.post-81125185635630203232018-08-27T07:46:48.553-04:002018-08-27T07:46:48.553-04:00Under the leaderships of both Albert Shankar and S...Under the leaderships of both Albert Shankar and Sandra Feldman none of this nonsense would go down.
