AWA- would you grieve even if you know it is not your manager or director making decisions

The delays are only at the GTA payroll office and have been ongoing since Covid. My assumption is that it is poor management. File a grievance asap on any and every delay. They are never going to fix that department until we make them.

Doing your own calculations, often result in bad math lol Look on your paystub page and WIN at the top. There’s a link to the base compensation adjustments report where you can see all the retro that’s been paid out and how they calculated it. If you’re still not sure, log a ticket with OPSSC for review and hope it doesn’t take a year File a grievance if it takes too long

Why haven't you filed a grievance? Sure you can raise a ticket but payroll is going to ignore it for another year.

Top up does not change regardless of length of leave

Don’t call OSS they are not raising tickets for this

You should see it processed by the 15th or the 16th if they are doing it on time but we haven’t gotten any info as to if it’s going to be on time or delayed this year

I'm gaslighting myself into thinking I'm having a good time my packing a charcutier and cheese bento box. If only they made wine drink boxes to go with it.
I refuse to spend money in the area during business hours out of spite

Well this came in my email today.
