[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Though they decreased quota by .25 per week, 3 signed cases a week is still tough. [/quote]

Don't forget that you can't even begin drafting a decision until you've read the whole file first.  It's not unusual for files to be 1000+ pages, especially as you get more experienced.  Fun.  [/quote]

That’s right. Don’t forget to add that BVA attorneys must review the entire 1000+ page file AND draft a decision within 10 hours. Rinse and repeat three times per week.[/quote]

And let’s not forget that sometimes you’ll find some admin stuff in some random document  (after spending hours on case review) just to find out that you need to send to admin and can’t proceed to draft your decision[/quote]

But, you still have to get three drafts signed each week regardless of any administrative or technical difficulties.[/quote]

Don't forget to fill out the All Employee Survey. I'm sure the responses will be taken seriously and meaningful change will happen.  lol. [/quote]

Well, quota is a non negotiable matter…lol. [/quote]

New poster here. What are you talking about? No one mentioned anything about the quota being negotiable or non-negotiable. While you are correct in that management does not have to negotiate performance standards, management can in fact unilaterally lower the quota in response to concerns raised in the All Employee Survey. Furthermore, there is nothing stopping management from lowering the quota in response to concerns raised by the union. Just because management doesn't have to bargain over performance standard, doesn't mean that management can't voluntarily adjust performance standards in response to concerns.[/quote]
