New Degree Requirements + Transfers

I had to defer my enrollment from Winter to Fall 2026. I heard from my advisor that the degree requirements for Accounting and Business degrees changed before Summer 2026.

My transfer credits when from my Gen Eds being over half covered my community college credits, to only one requirement being covered and I'm not going to be able to get them done by fall.

Just wanted to put out a PSA for anyone else working towards transfers and enrollment.

Working Conditions for State Employment

Our building is having the roof replaced. We work directly under it. The construction crew is blasting music and making so much construction noise (valid, we gavw no problem with thwm doing their job) all day. HR told us to use noise canceling headphones. We told them the noise is coming through the noise canceling and/or earplugs.

We are general service positions, but we aren't union classified.

I have a reasonable accommodation, but my supervisor won't let me use it.

We can't think or focus and I am on the verge of a panic attack.

I've been reading through the WA state workers right information and haven't found anything. If anybody could point me in the direction of a definition of reasonable working conditions or anything else that might help, I'd greatly appreciate it.

Thank you,
