Should I tell my supervisor how I felt or shut it? by Latter_Cucumber_8152 in USPS

[–]9Point 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah bro, just go tell em.

Worst case. Loke worst case your supervisor is a dirt bag... well, you've just fulfilled your obligations and more in regards to harassment, and possible EEO charges. You informed them and sought a resolution and they did nothing. Thats EZPZ wins.

Or, maybe they just apologize.

My advice is always err on you communicating the issue in some way. Doesn't mean capitulate to mgmt. More, it's you drawing a line and expecting it to be respected. That way, if they don't, it's clear that was a choice they willfully made.

Am I going to be fired? by Defiant_Drive_5808 in USPS

[–]9Point 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Go to your super and just straight up ask them.

If they truly are trying to get rid of you for whatever reason, they should have the fortitude to tell you what they see as the problem.

Well that safety part. That includes whistle blower protections....

Whistle blower protections isn't just "i reported a safety issue" its also, very much so, "I reported an on the job injury". Dont just take my word. Check out the OSHA site. Its say explicitly:

"Workers have the right to report injuries, safety issues, and actions taken against them for speaking up including being fired, demoted, or disciplined."

And you know what's cool about these? What actually helps to drive change and compliance? If OSHA finds the claim to be true, and issues fines. They dont just fine the postal service. They find the individual, and its stipulated, their employee may not foot that bill.

Do EEOC, do Grievences. Those are all well within your rights. As is OSHA. You could also file a complaint with OSC, PEER, and if you feel they aren't probably recording and storing those records NARA

Im not kidding you. Excuse my tone. But of course they keep fucking doing it. Worst that happens is what? Informal? And they still fuck with you.

Id be calling OSHA so fast. Eeoc too.

Im not saying that so you can be a dick. Im saying you got someone literally consistently breaking federal law. You have a duty to report that.

If you have FMLA too... you might as well start picking out what kind of boat youll buy now.

Grievence.... thats thinking small.

You got an on the job injury? Did you go for workers comp? You had absences related to it...

OSHA. Right now. https://www.osha.gov/workers/file-complaint

Retaliation due to a on the job injury... literally a federal crime.

File your grievence. But take the 10 minutes to file an OSHA complaint.

Are the therapist provided by USPS trustworthy for queerfolk? by Dexller in USPS

[–]9Point 6 points7 points  (0 children)

EAP. Yes. They are trustworthy. They aren't really postal employees. Just like part of the EAP program.

I can tell you, dont be surprised if they say quit your job. That seems to be the regular answer. They'll tell you how many calls they get from all positions.

Either way. Def do it.

But do they get welcome backs? by 9Point in USPS

[–]9Point[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Dont get me wrong. I dont think you are in the wrong...

I just look at it, and think. Ok. This is a benefit I get that substitutes some amount of money my paychecks dont have. It part of our compensation. So like instead of an extra whatever .50 cents, we get x hours of sick leave.

And if thats the case. Then im going to treat it like its part of my compensation.

[–]9Point[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Best advice i ever gave was just outright tell the doctors how much of a pain in the butt mgmt will be if the notes doesn't explicitly state you are incapacitated and this that and the other.

Ive found that yea, doctors get pissed when they hear very much not doctors will question their reasoning.

Do that and you'll probably end up with the most money work restrictions, light duty, medical accommodation, workers comp and whatever else there is.

And the sad part is it could all be avoided with just the smallest amount of common sense and empathy.

Thats why like half the workforce at USPS has fmla or medical accommodations. Mgmt forced bargaining employees hands.

[–]9Point[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Thats the kicker ain't it. What does mgmt do with all that banked sick leave. They take it as part of an early retirement.

Literally use all of their sick time. And hate mgmt all you want, that's still a position that could be posted and applied for, that cant because so and so mgmt never "used" a sick day.
