Haven’t been at work in 10 days. Also, no.Do you never check your email?
So there was also this emailWorth a grievance to find out. Purely my opinion, but:
Slate Book Article 29 Section 12 says you're eligible for EA outside of what is explicitly outlined. The exception listed in the DOT notification is for "mission-critical" employees and pertains to emergency situations ONLY (HRPM EMS-11.5). So unless an employee's absence creates an emergency situation (staffing level), excused absences should be permitted.
But that's just this idiot's take on the subject. And this idiot will be leaving 3 hours early tomorrow.
Maybe our glorious union should collaborate with the FFA and ensure that we get leave when applicable or compensated if we can't get leaveSo there was also this email
To begin the upcoming holiday weekend, Secretary Buttigieg has approved a three-hour early release on Friday, September 2 for all DOT federal employees in work status, including telework. Employees designated as essential personnel may be required by their supervisor to remain on duty.

May, not will/shall/must. Language matters, and that phrasing indicates that essential personal may also NOT be required by their supervisor.So there was also this email

yeah that’s what i was getting at. if it didn’t apply to us it would have said shall. using the word “may” sounds like staffing permitting it would be applicable ?May, not will/shall/must.

ATCS are allowed this time off. If you are not getting this(staffing permitted obviously) you need to reach out to your RVP. There is even a code in ART for it. If your OS/OM says anything else PM me for my phone number and have them call me for clarification.yeah that’s what i was getting at. if it didn’t apply to us it would have said shall. using the word “may” sounds like staffing permitting it would be applicable
Yup we have gotten this the last few times sometimes it’s only an hour/hour and a half and it’s first in/first outATCS are allowed this time off. If you are not getting this(staffing permitted obviously) you need to reach out to your RVP. There is even a code in ART for it. If your OS/OM says anything else PM me for my phone number and have them call me for clarification.
I told my ATM that 123456 said it was approved and he once again told me to go fly a kite even though we have the staffing for it. I'm batting .000 on getting it approved.ATCS are allowed this time off. If you are not getting this(staffing permitted obviously) you need to reach out to your RVP.

Such as?Again the only result of the union "speaking out about this" is, that everyone loses the excused absence. The union would be taking away something that some of the membership gets. Sometimes, other members, get things that you don't. Guess what? Sometimes, you get things that others don't.
That wouldn’t happen and is an absolutely ridiculous take. Are we DOT employees or not? Just because we are considered essential doesn’t mean the union should cower in its corner in the instances where the leave should be approved when there could be a “collaborative” solution.Again the only result of the union "speaking out about this" is, that everyone loses the excused absence.

As someone who has made some terrible takes. What a terrible take lmao.Again the only result of the union "speaking out about this" is, that everyone loses the excused absence.
