i am a new fed.

I was surprised to receive an email from my supervisor asking me not to change my telework days and spend a minimum eight hours a day in the office. I had notified him few weeks ago a situation that would prevent me to be on the office on a specific day I had suggested. an alternate day he never responded. After a few weeks. He sent an email copying my skip Level asking me to stick to my approved in person days only. I am very confused. Is this a disciplinary action? Why did he never speak to me or respond to my communication sent earlier and just sent me Written, communication adding my skip level. I thought i was keeping him informed it looks like something is amiss. I am anxious and confused. what should I do [/quote]

Your federal employment will likely be terminated very soon, OP.
Your supervisor’s request that you ‘not change your telework day’ and that you ‘spend a minimum of eight hours a day’ reveal that others, not just your supervisor, are watching you and reporting to management your actions which are inconsistent with Federal rules and policy. I have worked for state and Federal agencies for over 30 years. An employee, especially a new employee, does not assume liberties with the work schedule. Arrive on time, work the eight, go home. Communicate with your direct supervisor regarding schedule changes and receive your supervisor’s approval. Don’t ’skip level’- your direct supervisor determines workplace issues. 
Frankly, your employer cares not a whit about your ‘work-life balance.’ [/quote]
