Ari and moneybagg broke up 2022

I myself am not Australian and the law where I live is very different so looking for a bit of advice. My sister moved to Australia (Victoria) a couple of years ago. There she met a guy and they moved in together. They have been living together for a couple years (no kids, and renting an appartment with both on the lease).
Recently they broke up and it came to our attention that, since they have been living together for more than 2 years, and my sister makes significantly more than he does, he has right to some money. My sister wants to handle this civilly and offered a sum of money, the appartment and most of the furniture (even things that she bought well before they started dating).
Now he's making a bit of a fuss and feels like it's not enough (I think it's way more than he deserves but that's just a personal opinion).
What are his and her rights in this situation? He barely worked during their relationship because at first he was working on a PHD, later he had a mental health crisis (which he is still denying ever happened), and now "his shoulder hurts so he can't work". Basically he's been living off of my sister's income and now he wants more of her money as well.
He's pretty manipulative so I want my sister to be well prepared. So I was wondering if he can claim any of the money/assets she brought into the relationship, or just those earned during the relationship. For example: what if she had 50k in savings before the relationship and now 60k. Does he have rights to those 60k, or 60-50k=10k? What about furniture?
​
I would really appreciate some insights or maybe some site I can read more about this. I understand all comments here are not proper legal advice, but I'm just looking for some information on the matter.

Here is the revised version with some minor grammar and spelling corrections:
A little about me: I switched from a Retail Management role to IT 16 months ago. I was in Retail Wireless Sales/Management for 20 years. (I do not have a degree, but I have about 1 year of college.)
I landed an Outbound Helpdesk role, fully remote, starting at $55k (up to $60k now). The job is VERY low stress and ends up being mostly basic setup and customer service on a single remote managed device.
The company culture is great, and my leadership is excellent. After 20 years of commuting and retail, this has been an amazing change. My only issue is that I'm not learning anything technical. They do pay for some certifications, so I've been pursuing certs/courses/tryhackme/etc in my free time.
So far, I have:

• Google Cybersecurity Certificate - May/2023
• (ISC)² Certified in Cybersecurity Certificate - May/2023
• CompTIA Network+ Certificate - April/2023
• CompTIA Security+ Certificate - Octobe2022
• CompTIA ITF+ Certificate - January/2022
• IBM Cybersecurity Analyst Professional Certificate - February/2022
• Google IT Support Professional Certificate - Decembe2021

Ultimately, I'd like to transition into a SOC Analyst role or something similar. (Who isn't trying to get into Cyber nowadays, right? LOL) I'm not in a rush because I love my current role, and the current job market is rough.
I just finished a few introductory and intermediate SQL and Python courses and have done quite a bit on tryhackme and Letsdefend.io.
My question is, what should I focus on next?

This management’s discussion and analysis (MD&A) includes information that will help you understand management’s perspective on the Outlook for 2023 for Balincan USA Inc (BCNN) and its subsidiary Tekumo LLC (the “Company”).

CORPORATE OVERVIEW
The Company offers a service delivery platform that solves the "last-mile" of installing, monitoring, and maintaining technology systems and smart connected devices.
We play at the intersection of two major trends: the “Uber-ization” of product and service delivery, and the explosion of smart connected devices brought about by the “Internet of Things” (IoT). Our Service Delivery platform was designed to intelligently automate the installation and maintenance of products by offering On-Demand local technician resources, as well as providing a “smart interface” for the monitoring and management of connected devices.
This service platform caters for a broad range of technologies from POS systems, kiosks, digital menu boards, cameras, cabling, Wi-Fi and networking, to water and energy management, lighting and HVAC control, smart homes devices, wearable sensors, and access control.
Our platform results in “less people, less time and less cost” for our customers.
HISTORY & OUTLOOK
Tekumo started its journey as a small IT managed services company while we developed our Service Delivery Platform, recording service revenue of $2+ million in 2022 and 2021. We pivoted away from that managed service orientation to our real “soul” as a software-based solution at the end of 2022, having invested over $3 million in completing the Platform.
We have recently announced anchor customers in multiple industry segments. We expect that the revenue generated over the next 12 months from these announcements will exceed more than three times our previous annual revenue and will grow.
IT and Retail Services:
Most of our historical revenue has come from this segment. We have completed projects for such companies as Target, Home Depot, McDonalds, US Bank, 7Eleven, and AT&T. Our median work order is $250 for a 2.65-hour engagement.

• Our partnership with the largest third-party Managed Services provider to the Retail Industry offers the largest immediate revenue upside. They presently complete more than 2000 work orders per month ($5 million annually).
• We also added a partner in digital signage with OnPremise. They are part of a larger corporate group that has five divisions and earns more than $5 million in annualized revenue.
• Two prominent Quick Service Restaurant chains have ongoing projects across 700+ locations that have begun work with us through a prominent Japanese technology partner.

Smart Homes/Buildings:
The Smart Home Industry is already large and is expected to grow quickly. We have installed smart door locks, smart switches, access control, smart thermostats, and water leak sensors at an average per unit revenue of $200-250.

• Our partnership with the leading Smart Home Technology Company for the rental housing industry opens significant doors. One of our first projects is for 5000 units in the South and Southwest. This represents approximately $1.25 million in potential revenue and is only part of their tens of thousands in deployments.
• Water and energy conservation play a critically important role in managing operating budgets for facility managers. We have recently completed our first site surveys on properties in Miami, Detroit and New York. Our current pipeline of properties covers more than 100,000 units.

Hospitality:
Regulations to protect employees and guests in hotels are changing rapidly. We have been engaged to install panic buttons and other wireless technologies in a leading hotel group. These projects will be sold on a monthly recurring revenue basis
Financial Summary:
Our gross margin of 40% from 2022/21 is expected to continue in 2023. Operating Expenses ran $2.2 million in 2022, and there will be no major changes in fixed costs. An expected $6 million revenue rate would result in a near cash flow breakeven, with a continued investment in our technology and sales efforts fostering growth into 2024. We expect to see the effects of these recent partnerships from Q3 onwards.

Started seeing a new GI that I really like. Yesterday when I saw him I was in the middle of a horrific flare that sent me home from work, where I currently still am because of how much pain I’m in. He prescribed me a new medication to try and I was super thankful.
About 20 minutes later I get a text from the pharmacy saying that they’re out of stock and that it’ll also cost me $900 to get this prescription filled once they have stock again.
I absolutely cannot afford a $900 prescription, who tf set that price?? Why must I be rich to get medication to make my insides stop hurting enough so I can go back to work so I don’t go broke paying for all these damn medical bills?! Thank god the doctors office has free samples they set aside for me, except they’re not going to be back in my area for a week, unless I want to drive an hour+ away (2+ hour round trip) in excruciating pain to go pick up the samples.
I’m just going to keep taking the other meds that barely do anything, and taking my muscle relaxers, because at least it’s better than nothing.
God I just want this pain to end, it makes me feel so off and dizzy and disoriented, I feel so hungry but the sight or thought of food makes me want to gag.

It feels like all the increased pay we got between 2020-2022 was just eaten up by inflation and cost of living and we aren't going to see another dime for a long time. I live in a relatively low COL compared to most of the country, and I still don't see myself getting into my own home anytime soon. Currently trying to negotiate a raise right now and my manager says she can't get me one despite trying. Well they just sent out an email today saying they are doing away with all incentive pay including callback. They didn't fix staffing, we just lowered our standards.
I absolutely hate this profession.

I’ve been posting a lot and to anyone who’s read my rambles haha I’m sorry but also thank you.
My q and I have been together off and on for 6 years. I supported him through it all. Rehab, halfway housing, everything. We broke up and we’re seeing other people but made our way back to each other last summer. I was so happy. We’ve been together since august 2022 and I thought it was for good even though I could tell his cocaine addiction was honestly worse than before he went into rehab. He couldn’t even go 7 days.
I asked him to take his things from my house to his apartment 2 weekends ago because he used in my house which was a boundary I was really trying to stick too and not fold on and let him stay. He has been emotionally and physically abusive when high… and not high too I guess.
He has been staying at his moms for 9 days now and is going to a meeting everyday. He came and saw me Friday and said he loved me, wouldn’t talk to me all Saturday, came and met me Sunday and said he didn’t want to be without me and loved me, took me out Monday night and said the same, he was supposed to come over for dinner yesterday and was texting me planning a camping trip all morning. At 230 he said see you tonight, and then at 315 he messaged me 15 times saying he will never forgive me for calling the police (I called an ambulance because he barricaded himself in a room and wouldn’t answer and his mother and I thought he was dead. There were paramedics and firefighters and the police had to come escort him out of the house because he would not cooperate). He will not believe me I called an ambulance.
He ignored me all night again and then called me this morning and asked me to never contact him again, that he can’t trust me, and that he’s already talking to a girl from his AA Meetings and she’s “cool”. I used to be cool. Then I was so beaten down and destroyed and I don’t even recognize myself. I was pregnant a few months ago and we decided together this was not the time because his addiction was so bad. This morning he said if I loved him and wanted to be with him, I would’ve had his baby and we would still be together.
I should feel relief from reading everyone else’s posts but I don’t. I feel extreme sadness, I feel like he is forgetting all the things he did that I had to forgive and is only focusing on actions made out of extreme desperation when I felt unsafe. I don’t know how to move forward with my life. I gave him everything for 6 years in the hope that I would get my happy ending but I’m left with nothing and he is walking away feeling on top of the world for tearing me down one last time. How the hell does this ever get better.

Hello everyone and welcome to our new members,
As mentioned yesterday, we hope everyone had a great and safe long weekend. We have a strong conviction on this one. The tech appears solid and the need for these systems is on the rise.

NeoVolta Poised for California’s NEM Incentives to Pair Solar with Battery Storage
- Additional $630 Million in California State Funding Set Aside to Support Residential Low-Income Solar Plus Storage Adopters
- NeoVolta Poised for California’s NEM Incentives to Pair Solar with Battery Storage
SAN DIEGO, Jan. 26, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- NeoVolta Inc. (NASDAQ: NEOV) – NeoVolta Inc., manufacturer of Smart Energy Storage Solutions, announced today that it expects California’s recently updated Net Energy Metering (NEM) program to drive increased demand for energy storage systems.
On December 15, 2022, the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) issued a decision to update the NEM tariff to promote consumer adoption of solar and battery storage. The program will go into effect on April 13, 2023. According to the CPUC, the move was designed to financially incentivize Californians to install both battery and solar systems.
The CPUC stated that the current NEM 2.0 program was not aligned with California’s grid reliability and climate goals, noting that the increased use of electricity between 4 and 9 p.m. causes dependence on fossil fuel gas plants to meet the demand. With the battery storage incentive, the CPUC hopes to see an increased adoption of residential energy storage that will better support the needs of the grid, with customers saving self-generated solar energy for use in the evening hours.
An additional $630 million in state funding has been set aside by the California State Legislature for residential low-income solar plus battery storage adopters. The decision bolsters federal incentives provided by the Inflation Reduction Act for solar and battery storage.
It’s important to note that NEM 3.0 is not retroactive. Rooftop solar systems installed under NEM 2.0 will remain under that policy for a 20-year grandfathering period. This means existing rooftop solar owners who add a battery after the April 13 deadline will not be subject to NEM 3.0.
“We expect that NEM 3.0 will make Californians more aware of their energy consumption, encouraging them to conserve energy and pair rooftop solar systems with battery storage,” said NeoVolta CEO Brent Willson. “Californians who adopt this strategy will dramatically reduce their electrical bills while increasing their energy resiliency during periods of prolonged blackouts, fires, and flooding.”
California’s vast solar plus storage market has a dramatic impact on the grid. California has about 12 GW of distributed solar generation already installed, equal to nearly 25% of peak demand statewide. California also has more than 80,000 customer-owned batteries connected to the grid, with a storage potential of 900 MW, according to a September 2022 study by the California Solar & Storage Association.

We will be back with more soon on NeoVolta Inc. (NASDAQ: NEOV)
The Team

I have a solar contractor who I started an agreement with back in april of 2022. To this date, the system is still not active. There are (2) primary points of contention on this contract I would like to take him to small claims court for.
1.) Here in california they did a massive rate hike, and the only reason we jumped on the solar installaiton at that time was to get in under the previously instated NEM 2.0. That program ended in April of this year. In the contract I had him specifically state that the system was to be completed before that date to ensure that when we signed we would be getting those rates. He has failed to deliver the system in that time due to utter incompetancy and inability to do any paperwork. He has had every opportunity to do it in that time, and I have had to follow up with the electrical grid company at every step to verify whether he actually did what he said he did. At every turn, he had lied and said he did it. It was not until I threatened legal action did he decide to file his paperwork. We are now on the new rates of NEM 3.0 which is roughly 10x the payback. I would like to sue for the prorated amount that I would have to pay by being in this new program for the rate of the loan (10 Years)
2.) The way the loan program was supposed to work was that the contractor is payed 50% deposit, then a final 50% once the solar is complete and active. This was designed in such a way that once my loan payments began, they woudl be offset by my active solar power reduction. 3 Month ago he did his "Final Installation and Inspeciton". He assured me that the system was 100% complete, and I would have access to the app to show my power savings the next day. At this point I gave him the second half of the contract amount. This was an outright lie. He led me along for a week, every day saying he would give me access to the app the next day, but failed to deliver. Finally I confronted him, and he said that the system was not working because he needed parts. These parts have still not been installed to date. In addition it was not approved by the grid due to him not filing paperwork correctly. I would like to sue for all the months I have been paying my loan on top of my monthly electrical bill as he clearly mirepresented the state of the system to get his money prematurely.
Looking for any insight onto this.
Thank you

Hello everyone and welcome to our new members,
As mentioned yesterday, we hope everyone had a great and safe long weekend. We have a strong conviction on this one. The tech appears solid and the need for these systems is on the rise.

NeoVolta Poised for California’s NEM Incentives to Pair Solar with Battery Storage
- Additional $630 Million in California State Funding Set Aside to Support Residential Low-Income Solar Plus Storage Adopters
- NeoVolta Poised for California’s NEM Incentives to Pair Solar with Battery Storage
SAN DIEGO, Jan. 26, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- NeoVolta Inc. (NASDAQ: NEOV) – NeoVolta Inc., manufacturer of Smart Energy Storage Solutions, announced today that it expects California’s recently updated Net Energy Metering (NEM) program to drive increased demand for energy storage systems.
On December 15, 2022, the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) issued a decision to update the NEM tariff to promote consumer adoption of solar and battery storage. The program will go into effect on April 13, 2023. According to the CPUC, the move was designed to financially incentivize Californians to install both battery and solar systems.
The CPUC stated that the current NEM 2.0 program was not aligned with California’s grid reliability and climate goals, noting that the increased use of electricity between 4 and 9 p.m. causes dependence on fossil fuel gas plants to meet the demand. With the battery storage incentive, the CPUC hopes to see an increased adoption of residential energy storage that will better support the needs of the grid, with customers saving self-generated solar energy for use in the evening hours.
An additional $630 million in state funding has been set aside by the California State Legislature for residential low-income solar plus battery storage adopters. The decision bolsters federal incentives provided by the Inflation Reduction Act for solar and battery storage.
It’s important to note that NEM 3.0 is not retroactive. Rooftop solar systems installed under NEM 2.0 will remain under that policy for a 20-year grandfathering period. This means existing rooftop solar owners who add a battery after the April 13 deadline will not be subject to NEM 3.0.
“We expect that NEM 3.0 will make Californians more aware of their energy consumption, encouraging them to conserve energy and pair rooftop solar systems with battery storage,” said NeoVolta CEO Brent Willson. “Californians who adopt this strategy will dramatically reduce their electrical bills while increasing their energy resiliency during periods of prolonged blackouts, fires, and flooding.”
California’s vast solar plus storage market has a dramatic impact on the grid. California has about 12 GW of distributed solar generation already installed, equal to nearly 25% of peak demand statewide. California also has more than 80,000 customer-owned batteries connected to the grid, with a storage potential of 900 MW, according to a September 2022 study by the California Solar & Storage Association.

".......... and then it passed, like all things do. I didn't dream of her , I woke up and didn't think of her, I went on with my day and never pondered about her well being. The hurt, sadness, anger, disappointment faded and I forgot that I missed her. She moved on with time and I moved on with time, I never wanted to let go of her memory but time kept going and I got busy. I didn't find anyone new, don't love anyone new, maybe my heart still lies with her or it's just my lack of exploring options. One month became 9, some day this will become 5years and counting. Will I forget her, will I find someone new? Idk , I hope I do. Love is very warming, I wonder what falling in love again will feel like. I hope she finds someone more loving, caring and understanding, someone better than I could've been. I'll find someone better too, I hope. What if I don't? What if I lost my soulmate cause we couldn't adjust, what if there is someone else and I forget this love forever- this is so shallow . How can someone forget this feeling of love because something better and stronger came , people are special and have value, Noone can be replaced. Maybe I was just to simple, didn't create any value in a 14 month long relationship for her to easily replace me within 3months post BU. I just hope she finds her peace and I hope i gain some maturity. If I could go back in time then I wouldn't change the fact that I broke up, it made me who iam today. She is a good girl and deserves the world but so do i."

TLDR: 6 month unofficial relationship, problems on both ends including recent cheating, very messy all around, how can we get through this?
timeline: end of october - meet via tinder mid november - meet/hookup the first time end of november - hook up again every weekend in december - spending together, multiple days/nights in a row, sex and hanging out but no dates except for ordering in me sleeping w other people: dec 1, dec 28, same guy) jan 11 (different guy) him sleeping w other people: dec 28-jan 3 (on a trip), jan 5 mar 9-13 (trip), may 16, may 19
​
facts: -at the beginning we said i would 'only be his' but he could see whoever (this was always said during sex/sexting so i didnt take it seriously) -he told me about sleeping w people on the first trip, not about jan 5 (i just found this out), i didnt tell him that i had -he went thru my phone and found out what i did on jan 13 -jan 11 the sex was not consensual which i got an sti from and gave to him (my fault), i cancelled on him that night which really upsets him -it took me a few months to tell him every single detail about me sleeping with other people (including before him) because i didnt see the point, fought it, wanted to do things my way -he says this was cheating, but what he did in dec/jan was okay because he told me about it/i agreed to it -we are basically doing bf/gf things without the label, meeting family, dates, trips, etc -he said he could talk to whoever he wanted after i "cheated" because he didnt know if he wanted to be w me, so jan-feb he was sexting other girls and on tinder again, but says it was fine cuz i agreed
​
fast forward to now: -hes very secretive of his phone, i finally went through it 3 DAYS AGO after convincing myself he couldnt be cheating if we we're getting so close -i find: he slept w 2 girls on a trip in march, then 1 girl may 16th and 1 girl may 19th (same as jan 5th girl) -sexting other girls the whole time, dirty talk, sending them nudes he had sent me, getting nydes from them, bringing me into the sexting w stuff like "you got me jerking off in my girls bed while shes sleeping, you gonna f me and tell me how much better you are than her", etc -says all the sexting was just an anger outlet, didnt get off to it but wanted to see how much he could say and still have girls want him -the hookups were on days where we didnt hang but immediately before or after i was with him and his family -i confronted him, he says he cant lose me, says he's scared, tells me hes in love w me for the first time and hes never felt like this for someone before and couldnt handle emotions -im in love with him too, he supports me more than anyone, pushes me to be the best i can be, exactly how i convinced myself i was crazy for being suspicious for so long -i havent put a toe out of line since jan 11 because i feel disgusting and horrible about what i did, i havent even looked at a guy since, he has had full access to my phone and location since then, he still says sometimes he thinks im still cheating (now realize this was probably him projecting) -he wanted me to fix my cheating, says i broke him, to this day says i havent given him enough -says me not doing enough is part of what caused him to cheat (basically saying its my fault) -i wasnt doing enough (with effort) because i knew he was being shady, he says he was being shady because i wasn't doing enough -after i caught him ive comforted him more, he still wants me to fix everything i did, going from loving and sorry one moment to mad at me the next -i am trying not to be insecure and broken from what he did, most of the time able to forget but sometimes cant put what he said out of my head, him going to sleep with other girls when i was texting him the whole night, so much of the sexting i was sleeping next to him -i am not perfect either, i lied a lot for a while and havent given as much effort as him, i have borderline personality disorder which adds a whole level of complication that he is very understanding of -but i cant get past when i slept w other ppl he was doing the same thing and it was in the beginning, vs him just doing it 5 months later while saying hes loved me since february -i could genuinely never bring up his cheating if he did the same thing, but i dont know if he can do that, on the condition that we both give this 110% effort. i believe he wont do it again but obviously if he did that would be the end i promise i know how twisted and ridiculous this all is but i have no one in my life to discuss this with, clearly we are messed up, weve both had pretty traumatic pasts and made mistakes w eachother, but ive never had a connection w someone like this and i genuinely think we can be great together moving forward if we both commit properly, but i could really use outside perspective on how, if all, we can make this work as we were (before i caught him) planning a trip for july ! please be brutally honest or ask any questions if necessary. thank u :)

How do you heal lingering resentment after past issues in relationships?
So just as the title says.
My boyfriend (29M) and I (27W) had a very rocky start in our relationship because his ex still was entangled in his life a lot. They broke up after 6 years or so, still worked at the same place, had pets together, etc.
He definitely jumped into our relationship way too early after their breakup which made us tons of trouble in the beginning. We've been together for almost two years now, and are living together since last year in August. Before all that, we've known each other for over 10 years.
I won't list all the single things but we've had a lot of breaches of trust, lies, I've been hurt a lot, in turn I've been hurtful and not so nice a lot of times. He's more the "I don't want anyone to be hurt"-positive type of guy and I'm the polar opposite and want the brutal and bare truth all the time. We've found a middle ground by now.
We've talked through our issues, before anyone tells me to talk with him. We've talked for hours and hours. Things are 100% settled, no room left for any unclarities. We've both seen our ugly sides and we still want to commit to each other because there's so much love.
When I'm with him it's mostly fine, but when we're separated for a bit a lot of the resentment of the past things keeps coming up and I start acting ugly towards him. It's like I just disconnect from him as person. And that's just absolutely not fair of me. There's no reason to worry. There's no more secrets. And he really does a lot for me, really, for all that trouble he really redeemed himself and I truly believe it myself, I'm not just saying that, emotionally he's become a much bigger person than me now. I love him. He's the most beautiful man I've ever seen. I believe that everything in life will turn out just fine when he's next to me, 98% of the time. He takes away my anxiety and his presence calms me.
So how do I stop this resentment that bubbles up sometimes? It's very clearly a thing that's wrong with me, he doesn't feel like this at all, and the past year I've been the only one that screws up constantly and is angry far too often because he just happens to mention a keyword that reminded me of something that happened like two years ago. He's truly the man I want to spend my life with, I want to be able to give him all the love he deserves.
Did anyone else feel the same and fought it? It's definitely not jealousy. It's just that I still, after everything, feel so hurt. And it's the same thing with platonic friends, it's so so hard for me to forgive and see the other part as a different human being, I just always expect everyone to act perfectly like my own moral compass. At least that's what I think is the main issue? With my platonic friends this fades after a longer while. I don't want to be like this anymore, it feels like I'm spiky and I keep pushing everything and everyone away from me with that behaviour. But where do I start?
tl;dr: had a rocky start in my relationship, we've cleared everything up, but two years later I still keep bringing up old stuff and it's killing my otherwise great relationship and I don't know how to stop

It's now four-five months since me and my ex broke up. I've gone on quite a few dates and recently after a couple of dates with a girl invited her back to mine and she stayed over for a night. Obviously, this is sort of the beginning stages of scoping out a relationship. This has brought up in me lots of conflicting feelings about my ex.
I think that after she was so absent for so long in our relationship (even moving cities) I formed a sort of idealised psychological version of her in order to hold on to the relationship, but then whenever she was actually around she never was that person and instead we would get into all our weird gaslighty type dialogue trees.
After sleeping with the girl I've been seeing now I started to recall lots of memories of things that I was holding on to in the previous relationship. I was missing the love bombing stages when my ex was actually into me, when she perfectly mirrored me and seemed to be the perfect friend and partner. I had this really deep longing to just reach out to her and see if maybe we could make things work, after all that person was someone who loved me and if they're there then I can get through.
Does anyone have any advice on dealing with these sorts of feelings when dating someone new after coming out of this sort of toxic relationship. Is this an indication that Im not ready to be dating and should stop so I don't hurt anyone when I'm not ready yet?
Would appreciate advice here.

Tldr: Here's the deal. This guy who I thought was my friend has shown his true colors and Im trying to figure out how to proceed.
Long version: I'm in the Army National Guard and I befriended a fellow guardsman some time around 2007. Fast forward to 2009 he helped me get a federal job at the same facility where he worked. He was very content with his position and I was very ambitious. Within a year and a half I had been promoted over him from WG6 to GS7. He seemed fine with it because it was less work he had to do. A decade goes by and our supervisor retires. I was immediately plugged in as the interim supervisor and eventually awarded the position. He undermines my authority often. Always shows up to work ridiculously late. Calls out of work at least once a week. The thing is it's a very slow and difficult process to fire a federal employee, but I have an ace up my sleeve. I have evidence that he has been convicted of aggravated assault in 2022, has and open DUI case, have been arrested at least 4 other times in 2022, and has recently gone to jail ( this week) for attacking his 25 year old secret wife (He's in his 50's). Likes young women because he can control and manipulate them with money and transportation. I know you're saying, "but what's that have to do with you?" On at least 3 occasions I've been pulled into the drama unexpectedly. 1. From his Facebook account the wife (girlfriend at the time) sends me a video of him drunk on Facebook raging out on and threatening her, and rambling about being violated by Vice Lords in the 90's. She also made statements about people and situations that she couldn't know unless he told her since we've never met nor spoken to each other. He flipped out on me for responding to her.

1. 6 months later. He sent me a long-winded text around midnight one night saying that he got married and need to get an annulment and that I need to stop telling people his business and that he needs my support... I don't speak to anyone about other people's personal life I keep it professional.
   
2. We had a co-worker move to a different department so as the supervisor I rearranged duties to equally distribute them amongst all my employees. Once again he was not at work when the meeting transpired. I told him that he would now be in charge of a certain task he said okay. Days later around midnight again he sent me another text saying to stop coming at his neck and talking slick about him in meetings and that he's my senior so get someone else to do the task assigned to him. He also, brought up things from my past that I told him in confidence. I told him I had no idea what he was talking about and that he should bring whomever his "source" is so that we can discuss it like men and colleagues. He quickly apologized and has never brought it up again.
   

My team and i are fed up with his laziness and unprofessionalism. Do you guys think I should play the wild card and get him out of here or build a legit insubordination packet?
