/m5840. You need to look at your local Union's LMOU. Article 18, I think (ours anyway) determines how your office determines sections for reassignment, bidding, and excessing.

Can anyone clarify how excessing would apply in my situation.

We have one clerk seniority list but two seperate locations. The first is a customer service building with the carriers, box section, window, bulk mail acceptance, etc. which has 15 clerks. The second location is a Mail Processing Unit(MPU) which has 25 clerks. The two locations are 5 miles apart. When there is a vacancy in either location anyone can bid on that position and there have been several instances of employees switching from one location to the other. The current AMP proposal for us is to keep the 15 clerk positions at the customer service location and to keep just two positions at the MPU.

My main question is do the top 17 clerks by seniority get to stay? Or do the 15 clerks currently at the Customer service Unit get to stay and the top two at the MPU.

A secondary question is does it make a difference if you are in a higher level position (level 7) ??

/m5837 did you ask the same question on other forums? because there has been a lot of questions about attire.

the post office does not care what you wear as long as it is decent.

and please turn off the caps lock!

well, spoke to my steward and i have been informed i am entitled to back pay from time of hire as i was hired to only work as window clerk, but as i have been completing a much larger role in the every-day procedures and have complete clearance for all financial duties of an OIC ... i will be given a higher level of pay and arrearages for the time so far. from what i have heard PSEs usually only work about 20 hours a week. My hours have been reaching well above 40 regularly. So i guess (again fingers crossed) i can be one of the few that kept their heads down ambitions high and actually made it out employed.

i didnt want to file a formal grievance as i have heard the horror stories here about us whining PSEs.

only a few days over 90 on the job and already have my ppls fighting for higher pay and hopefully jumping into career. WHOO HOO for the good guys left.

Quick question in regards to training for POS system PO. i work in a manual office and wish to find hours in automated local offices when hours are available. which of the POS classes should be taken so i can be avaiable for an automated office as a PSE with clerk POS training?

when i was searching through the available classes there were about 5 or 6 that were "front of house" training for POS. my super told me i can take any classes i wish and that the hours i am away will not be a problem. and he wants me to take all that i am available. so i want to start with the classes/training that would help me immediately.

thank you.

In an office with 5 clerks and only 1 regular, can the regular decline the new Lead Clerk position? If so, then what happens? Is the regular just put in the position?

m5765; Do not sign anything! State that you are "under duress", and will not sign.

The "misery shopper" program cannot have any disciplinary action attached to it. I do hope that fired clerk is fighting this!

A chuckle for you; our postmaster flunked horribly. 0% on everything. Now that idiot knows how unfair that whole thing is. You better believe that we clerks laughed our behinds off over that one!

Not asking for a commendation. My aspersion from the USPS the last eight months, well, - My Theme Song,-Bob Dylan,"Like A Rolling Stone"! But, I realize there isn't a replacement for the United States Postal Service. My occupation as a PTF clerk is a reputable service. I'm proud I could spend over half my life serving and working with so many wonderful citizens and Vets!!! My many 'Thanks' go out to our APWU directors, presidents, stewards and members! USPS will persevere!
