Currency while on PPL

Dude comes in and spends half his shift on break and complains
I don’t spend any more time on break than anyone else in my facility. Again, sounds like a management problem, this should be WAY more of an idictment on them. Are you really acting like it’s a CPCs prerogative to run the facility with management in the building lmao. Typical boots comment.

Yes. Nobody is discriminating against you. They accommodated your request and you didn't keep up your side of the bargain which is lame. You sound like the type of dude to file for a missed lunch working 5 on 10 off covid schedule.

Your supe is also acting like a baby by giving you a PRoC instead of just saying "dude that's not cool, don't do that again".

I'm not saying your supe is in the right, I'm saying you're making a big deal out of nothing.
He doesn't need an agreement with anyone there's a whole bargaining unit agreement this went against.

He was retaliated against, not discriminated against.
 
A decade plus ago, I was teaching in the lab for 4 weeks straight. I had some overtime’s, but wasn’t going to get my currency.

My supervisor came down and told me I could come up on my break from running problems and debriefing to make sure I got my currency.

I told him to fuck right off and he could give me an over the shoulder. I wasn’t giving up my breaks for that shit.

He was the same supervisor that tried to hassle me over taking an hour of sick leave one day and deny it, and then when I got there sent me to do a CBI since we weren’t busy.

There are many bad supervisors in the NAS. I am fortunate that currently I have a lot of decent ones.

That bad supervisor; he’s dead now. Cancer.

Get yourself checked and don’t put the job first being a ‘hero’ to the operation.
They act like losing currency is the end of the world, and on OTS is somehow a great burden. Fuck those fuckers.

It’s managements job to assign work asshole. If they didn’t assign him enough to keep his currency that’s on them. You stupid fucks have a big giant pie chat in currency dashboard that shows how many people have currency and how many don't, and even who they are and what they are short on and you fucks always wait until the last days of the month before you get off your breaks and take your ATMs dick out of your mouth to do something about it. It literally does not matter if someone doesn’t get currency except to fuckass middle managers who don’t have enough to do to justify their jobs.

This was really my original inquiry. Idk why it turned into a coping thread for supes and those who arbitrarily think everyone always abuses sick leave. That obviously does happen, but this culture is disappointing to say the least.

This always comes up when leave is critiqued, the os is only documenting something because the cps complained to him about you, just ask.

Thats the last thing ill say, gotta go be miserable and watch the super bowl with my family and 7 of my cpcs.
Your CPCs? Go back to checking your email you fucking goob. You provide nothing to the operation. Hope your ass gets DOGE'D
 
If you take it consecutively, you become normal sooner. Everyone hates the sprinkled ppl guy, even fellow CPCs, its annoying.
It’s annoying to you because it means you have to do your fucking job and be held accountable for the decisions you make. If you don’t run your operation and assign work so that various metrics are met, including currency, OJT hours, eLMS etc. that is 110% your fault, not mine.

I’m going to come into work like any reasonable employee and execute assigned work/tasks, otherwise I’m going home and enjoying my child like the CBA and local agreement says I can. I think you need to get over the fact that there’s nothing you can do about that part of the agreement and go complain to upper agency officials that signed the CBA, not me. And I think most here would agree that I’m a pretty decent employee that’s often flexible with management to bolster overall morale and relations.

To that end, an over the shoulder because of the urgent needs of someone’s family should not be this exhausting big deal y’all make it out to be. That’s precisely what sick leave and re-cert evals respectively are for. Everything you’re saying carries the connotation that I abused the sick leave I took and you still haven’t explained to anyone in here why lapsed currency is such a big deal.

I am not a miserable OS. I have respectable CPCs that do their job so life is good.
Heaven forbid you have to be annoyed with scheduling someone intermittently. Sorry doing your job is annoying. It’s almost like it’s for the benefit of the employee and not you.
 
Can anyone tell me where it says you can’t take this leave in increments? There is an attitude here from a few of you that management bent over backwards helping him out by allowing him to work 1 day a week (Sunday in his case, which makes sense because he can keep Sunday pay so he doesn’t loose his premium).

The rule of PPL is you can take it up to the child’s first bday (so one year for you goobers). It is US, the BUE, the CPC that informs management when we will take this leave. It is not up to them to allow it, or do some “favor” by allowing us to work if we want. You can take it all, you can take 90 random days throughout the year, whatever you want to do.

Get off your knees in the OS/ATMs office and get back on the floor because one of us wants to burn some leave!

Intermittent use of PPL is an approved form of use.

it’s a big deal because most sups can’t separate their own ass cheeks to take a shit and they’re afraid of being actually responsible for the position while giving the OTS. Most sups seem to be barely competent where they were last CPCs and are given paper checkouts to be sups.

Buddy, you’re a fucking adult. You told them you wanted to work Sundays to maintain currency. Instead you spent half your shift on break and you’re trying to play the victim now.

Doesn’t PPL fall under the umbrella of FMLA? If that’s the case, any type of retaliation by an employer is actually against the law. Having the PRoC thrown out would just be the tip of the iceberg. You honestly could file a lawsuit for harassment based on this.
I didn’t realize so many dumb fucks worked in this agency. Insane.

Again, not my job to run the operation. There are plenty of OSs who are privy to my PPL situation and can manage our daily staffing accordingly. Also again, I don’t get any more breaks than anyone else in the building.

See, this is the great thing about America, you’re free to be wrong as fuck. 🇺🇸
 
"the employee may not use FMLA leave with substitution of PPL intermittently unless the agency agrees to such use—it is not an entitlement."

From the link you shared.
Well, for starters, I didn’t share the OPM link so maybe you tagged the wrong person. But, against the likes of some in here like you who think I got some sweetheart deal from management, what you just quoted reinforces the fact that they agreed to it and could have very well denied it… And just to refresh your memory we’re talking about a small hiccup in my PPL because of unforeseen circumstances. You act like I pulled an all night bender with the boys and banged out in the manner of abusing sickleave for other than its intended purpose.

You think the agency is going to give a flying fuck if a controller/BUE agrees to something and it doesn’t necessarily work out in their favor either in part or in full?? I’m not saying it’s OK to fuck people over and frankly that’s not what I’m doing to management in this circumstance at all. I’m just saying if the shoe was on the other foot, the agency wouldn’t give a shit about you anyway and we all know that. But if something even mildly doesn’t go their way, they’re out for retaliation as we see here.
