But someone still has to come in. What are you not understanding? This is not a how it’s always been thing. Also, We as controllers had that ability for that extra time, yes it’s inconsistent and the guidance was provided to managers, union reps should also be aware and help to advocate on your behalf on how to build the shift rotation to allow as many people to leave on that admin leave. As a facrep I used my free time to help with that. The nature of our job just doesn’t allow everyone to leave, it’s impossible. It’ll never happen unless you close the facility.
And the snow leave is a stupid example. everyones area near the facility does it different. Some states handle snow better than others while Dallas can’t handle 2 inches, Vermont people would say I could get to work, so consistency is also impossible. Some people live 1+ away, just cuz you choose to live that far does that mean someone who lives 10 mins away should be responsible to show up just cuz you live so far and are requesting Snow leave, again prove it and your fac rep and managers will approve it somehow or tell you to go screw. You were also compensated for your snow leave!!!! If it was so bad how did you get in?
