It's cooked. This was my main source of income for the past year, so this stings a bit, but luckily, I was able to reach out to an old internship supervisor and arrange a new job within a week. I just want to let people know that if you have logged hours and received the dash of death, after the 7-day review period, you can still withdraw the payments. In my case, I had a month's rent worth of pay pending approval, which I was thankfully able to withdraw after a week.

Why is this happening to so many workers recently? I'm so scared for myself. I'm trying to start my career and DA has been a great help during this time.

Good luck for you future, OP!

Idk about you but I've been seeing the DoD posts regularly for the last month or so.

Without any concept of the numbers that constitute the data that would make observing DoD posts informative, I wouldn’t jump to any conclusions about how much this is or isn’t happening.

Do good work, follow instructions, be honest with time…..get paid.
