Welcome to LuLu’s Lemons
Resources for Future Former Feds
If you’re a federal employee stuck between “resign now” and “get fired later,” first of all—you’re not alone, and second, you’ve got options. LuLu’s Lemons is here to squeeze some clarity out of the Deferred Resignation Program (DRP), the government’s oh-so-generous way of nudging you out the door. Use our quick calculators to see what your payout might look like if you take the DRP—because if they’re gonna hand you lemons, you at least deserve lemonade (maybe with a shot of bourbon).
We’re not here to tell you what to do—just to make sure the numbers are in your hands, not theirs.
You may think you’re not eligible for retirement/pension – you may be wrong!
Check out our basic FERS Deferred Annuity Calculator to see what you might be entitled to.
Considering taking the fork? Can’t blame you! But make sure you use our Severance Pay Calculator to see what severance pay your would be eligible for under a RIF/involuntary separation.
