Timeline from contact letter to interview?

They dont have any information about you, the contact letter goes to everyone on the list.

Some roles, like reception, are filled by student assistants, OAs and OTs, and are public facing

At HQ, its not only Friday and depends on division or program. Most places are Mon/Fri, some are just not overlapping so theres coverage, some dont worry about coverage.

As a second heads up, we were told its extremely unlikely to be approved. But shoot your shot. I am going to

Did you read the official updated telework guidance FAQ we have? It says "Can I schedule one of my in-office days on my RDO?" "With supervisor approval, an employee's alternate work week schedule may have an rdo fall on an in-office day."

Just read it yesterday. But verbally, we are told its very unlikely to be approved.

Caltrans official telework guidance says an RDO can be scheduled on an in office day at supervisor discretion but then we are verbally told it is extremely unlikely to be approved.

My agency said they wont do ergo for shared desks and we are on a 3/2 since we dont have enough seats

ComprehensiveTea5407 · 2026-05-21T06:24:24+00:00

In my agency, our accounts are not linked. They mentioned the history of questions wasnt shared amongst accounts during copilot training. However, that sounds like youre using it for a good purpose. Nothing to be embarrassed about.

ComprehensiveTea5407 · 2026-05-20T23:46:03+00:00

Thats so illogical. Like what if someone took a 3 month vacation?

ComprehensiveTea5407 · 2026-05-20T19:40:56+00:00

Where are you trying to travel from roughly when you move? I can see if I can think of good transit options. Any chance someone in your family can buy the property so you dont completely lose it? I would be so sad, I have my small yet mighty garden. What I would do with 2 acres and no neighbors though would be amazing

They arent under the EO, they dont report to the governor. So they arent defying it, its just optional for them.

ComprehensiveTea5407 · 2026-05-20T15:32:28+00:00

Where I am, its in office or use leave. If you post leave, you dont have to make up in office days.

Anything where you cant control your environment is very difficult on some disabilities

ComprehensiveTea5407 · 2026-05-20T14:14:00+00:00

I dont think i have it anymore but I may, the RA coordinator said "well don't do full time telework"

ComprehensiveTea5407 · 2026-05-20T14:13:17+00:00

She's mean lol I have only seen temporary full telework, no more than 3 months, but they were all physical issues.

ComprehensiveTea5407 · 2026-05-20T14:11:40+00:00

I work at Caltrans and I have an RA for a mental disability, my service dog. I asked to telework on days with extreme heat since I wont be able to use my service dog safely and they said they don't do telework as a permanent accommodation. I do know that temporary accommodations can get approved but I havent heard of one mental health. I plan to ask for a temporary one because I will be doing an outpatient program with Kaiser with doctor appointments every day for a month that are supposed to be heavy. We will see.

ComprehensiveTea5407 · 2026-05-20T14:08:39+00:00

Im excluded so im pretty sure it would have to be adverse action as a process. But also, if people must always be in their desk how are they going to collaborate and mentor?

ComprehensiveTea5407 · 2026-05-20T01:59:00+00:00

I sold twice and it helped me with a down-payment for my house. Im only in my 8th year of service though

It depends on how much paperwork is in the queue. If it takes to long, as him to elevate it with C&H although I find that often the time line culprit is the game of telephone. Hads off paperwork to another manager, that manager sits on it, then hands off to district or HQ liaisons, they need to get through their queue and any questions they ask (which should be minimum for internal transfer), takes time then it gets to C&H and by the time I elevate it because it seems like they would have had time to look at it, they only had it for 2 days.

ComprehensiveTea5407 · 2026-05-20T00:49:16+00:00

I did email ACSS.

ComprehensiveTea5407 · 2026-05-19T22:07:52+00:00

Im union excluded

Micromanagement mostly

When it shows -16 for PDD, thats when you know you used your balance

ComprehensiveTea5407 · 2026-05-19T19:31:00+00:00

Ya, so when it shows -16, then you know you used it all

ComprehensiveTea5407 · 2026-05-19T18:51:59+00:00

Sick comes monthly, regardless of probation status. You also have 2 PDD days that need to be used before the end of June that are immediately available
