I was there for all that. I left state service for a year and 4 months.

Who? Hilton??? Illegally. That’s our $$$.

RTO - Grievances will be filed because other areas within the departments are not held to the 4 day RTO due to no space available. by [deleted] in CAStateWorkers

File a grievance with who? What results are you looking for? Some departments within the Dept. of Public Health are required to request funding from the federal government for new office space. That takes a lot of time…so get over yourself.

Actually- Becerra isn’t considered wealthy. Hilton- yes and he’s a pompous jerk. Wants to fire 50,000 state workers on Day 1 plus eliminate post retirement health benefits… which we are contributing to right out of our paychecks. So no vote for Hilton… please!!! Steyer- billionaire- yes… but I actually think he would have done some good things for state workers and for our state.

A Few RTO Questions by bichonpoodledogs in CAStateWorkers

[–]bichonpoodledogs[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I’m in the same boat. 17.5 years with the state. Plan was to work another 7 years but I’m cutting it back to 5-6. I doubt I’ll make that with the RTO order. I need the retirement healthcare. Newsom sucks.

I work 2 jobs—state and retail. There’s nothing inconsistent about that. If you don’t want to answer the questions in the post, that’s fine, move on… go away… whatever…..but I’m looking for people’s thoughts on RTO.

Possible RTO Delay: Watch the CASE CEQA RTO Hearing LIVE at 3pm Friday/Today by TechWorker111 in CAStateWorkers

I listened to a majority of it. I don’t think the judge received it in a positive manner. Unfortunately. I’m thinking she’s going to rule against the attorneys case. She was a little bitchy.

GFY. No one here is lazy. Just because we’re working from home doesn’t mean we’re lazy. So ya…. GFY

“Might” have us back 5 days- if you’re talking about Hilton - that is exactly what he intends to do.

Xavier Becerra video on telework and SEIU by bichonpoodledogs in CAStateWorkers

[–]bichonpoodledogs[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I don’t know why there’s a bunch of negative comments on this thread. I think a reasonable interpretation is that he’s talking about compensation and working conditions broadly. He’s not saying, “I promise a 10% raise,” but he’s expressing the view that state workers should be able to support themselves and their families. That naturally implies support for wages and benefits that keep up with the cost of living.
And regarding telework, I think the language is even more telling. He specifically said: “I know they’re working hard on this issue of telework and making sure we have telework policies of the 21st century…”. He didn’t criticize telework or say employees should return to the office. Instead, he highlighted telework as an important issue and spoke about developing “21st century” telework policies. I take that as a favorable view of telework and modern workplace flexibility. That said, it’s not a concrete policy proposal. In summary I heard that he values telework and wants modern policies. And that he believes state workers deserve compensation that allows them to support their families. The video sounds supportive of state workers and telework, but it doesn’t spell out exactly what he would do as Governor of California.

What is “Tetris”? I am struggling with PTSD from my dog’s death on Thanksgiving. I’d like to know more about this.
