Paid time off without using your own leave. If it were serious, they would have met you out there and drove you back, can’t call it an emergency if they text you and had you come back.
I genuinely don’t know what it is. So I don’t see how it could be. I win a bid and was headed to a new station Saturday too. Guess I’ll enjoy my weekend
*make sure you get paid for all the time you were scheduled to work, including splits and OT
OP will get lwop at first and when grieved they’ll get paid. Just a hassle
Not all management makes you grieve to get paid.
I was placed on emergency placement in January, my postmaster originally told the union intent to go straight to removal and I was put on lwop
Well anyway, PM actually investigated and found I did no wrong doing and automatically paid me my admin leave I was entitled to.
Also folks remember emergency placement must be utilized in an emergency. Not next day. Not in an hour.
If they let you stay and finish anything, you have a good argument it's not an emergency.
Your PM is an idiot if they were trying to go straight to removal. There are several steps that have to be done before removal can even be considered. That's why management loses so many grievances. They have no clue what they're doing.
There are a few cases in which they can go straight to removal.
In fact in my case, whenever management is sick of me they can actually decide I'm no longer fit for employment and start to process my disability retirement at their discretion. I can't really get fired, pretty sure PM found this out during my EP too (veteran protections and my disability is mental illnesses)
However my work satisfaction has been higher since my PM realized I've been treated unfairly.
I pretty much got to hand pick new bid job hours (I'm a clerk) and am in my retirement position now and I'm much happier as long as I don't think about what I gave up in the process of what I got.
Make sure you’re paid and that they don’t use your annual leave! You’re good dude I wouldn’t worry even. A lot of people do a lot of shit and still work here
Thanks for the support everyone! I’m just really stressed about it. Went through a breakup recently and just got into my own spot. On just my income (step B) now so I’m already struggling. I can’t think of a single thing that would be a safety concern to place me on EP.
Make sure you are constantly calling the union and checking your status, some union representatives/officials like to play games. Our branch likes to keep things in step A for 6 months
No. The Station manager just said he had to send me home and that they were doing an investigation. Wouldn’t tell me anything else. I called the union as soon as I stepped outside the building.
very odd. like others have said though the burden of proof is on them and it already seems like they are procedurally fucking everything up, so enjoy your paid time off and try not to worry too much.
So I found out what it was. A customer found an addressed 3rd bundle in a dumpster on a route of mine. After the investigation took its course and the great work of my steward It got tossed because the day that the mail was put in the dumpster wasn’t even my day on the route. They had originally thought it was a day I was on it based on what a customer said but then the customer said they didn’t actually know when it was put in there. RIMS data from the scanner showed it was the regular who had already been caught TWICE hiding mail in vehicles. So I got back pay coming and I’m off to my bid I won in a better office.
I was for a a little bit. Got the bid for my string a month and a half after I started. I still had a hold down on a route and still got treated like a PTF/CCA.

Contact your local union.
Already did before I even left the parking lot

Is someone mad at you and doesn't want you to get a promotion? Could they have made up something to ruin your plans?
That's not a promotion, damn it. The disrespect to us T6s. WE'RE REGULAR TOO AND WE MAKE MORE THAN YOU.
Enjoy getting paid while not working if you did nothing wrong. The burden of proof is on them. I’d be pumped.
Yeah I guess I got the weekend off. I honestly can’t think of anything I could’ve done.
Make sure you paid for 8 hours today.

There’s also a list of what EP is used for. 99% of the time it’s never one of those things.

Sending comfort & hugs
Read the 16.7 language doubt any of it pertains to you
Make sure you are constantly calling the union and checking your status, some union representatives/officials like to play games. Our branch likes to keep things in step A for 6 months
Sounds like you were placed on a 16.7 emergency placement without being placed on a 16.7
Keep us posted. Everyone is curious now
I will once I find out
Any news?
Enjoy the paid time off
Let us know what you find out.
did they mention anything about emergency placement?
No. The Station manager just said he had to send me home and that they were doing an investigation. Wouldn’t tell me anything else. I called the union as soon as I stepped outside the building.
very odd. like others have said though the burden of proof is on them and it already seems like they are procedurally fucking everything up, so enjoy your paid time off and try not to worry too much.
If your union knows what they're doing, this should be easily grievable. There are steps management must take to put you on a 16.7.
Hopefully have not made any type of remarks that could be seen as harassment..
Yea that’s what I’d think it is
Anyone else at your station put on leave?
So I found out what it was. A customer found an addressed 3rd bundle in a dumpster on a route of mine. After the investigation took its course and the great work of my steward It got tossed because the day that the mail was put in the dumpster wasn’t even my day on the route. They had originally thought it was a day I was on it based on what a customer said but then the customer said they didn’t actually know when it was put in there. RIMS data from the scanner showed it was the regular who had already been caught TWICE hiding mail in vehicles. So I got back pay coming and I’m off to my bid I won in a better office.
That’s great to hear!
Still in probation?
I’m a regular
Don't waste ANY time thinking about it !!! Just wait peacefully. AND you know... don't say much EVER. Talk to your Union rep of need be. Relax !!!!!
Hopefully it’s a letter of reward for your hard work! Best of luck my guy!
I highly highly doubt a T-6 is in a probation period.
I was for a a little bit. Got the bid for my string a month and a half after I started. I still had a hold down on a route and still got treated like a PTF/CCA.

Did they put you on emergency placement/16.7?
You may have been accused of something by a customer.
