Description



With the government reopening, federal workers are about to receive major paychecks — but the big questions remain: Who gets backpay? Who qualifies for the $10,000 bonus? Do hourly employees get retroactive pay too? Joe Pags and the crew break it all down with help from callers, digging into retroactive pay rules, sick leave calculations, bonus eligibility, and the surprising fine print most people don’t know about. It’s an informative, lively, and eye-opening look at how government pay really works behind the scenes.
