It has been circulated within the SEC. And besides the majority of SEC staff are union members. The ones that aren’t obtained the decision one way or the other. The fact that you had to go on the dark web is pretty pathetic.
It was sarcasm. The fact that staff have to individually “obtain” an arbitration opinion is what’s “pathetic.”
The union wouldn’t STFU about the issue for a year, but when the decision finally comes out, it doesn’t even mention it publicly? Shady as hell.
Give it up!!!
Shhhhh!! It’s secret. It’s sensitive. Don’t post anything about a publicly known arbitration. Shhhhh!
What a bunch of dorks.
It’s not secret dumb*ss. It was sent to all union members and if you had any shred of social skills you would just ask a colleague to send it to you. Or, you know, join the freakin’ union like normal people do.
Here’s my take on this whole thing. The reason it is all quiet about the decision is that there will be some sort of a resolution to this. A settlement. Where we will get 2 days per pay period.
This is my prayer and the only reason I have stuck around this long. Realistically, I think there will be a mass exodus when PA digs in and appeals.
100% on an exodus if there isn’t some resolution resulting in regular telework . I think people need 2 days to stay. With only one I think the retirement eligible people leave. I don’t know if they realize how many people are waiting to see if anything shakes out of the Division Directors asking and the Union win and will leave if we stay at 5 days per week.
So PA would defy the EO and opm just bc the division directors “asked” or bc some rando powerless arbitrator said so? Not gonna happen.
You do realize there is wiggle room in the EO and many agencies still have regular telework . . .

I've been a dues-paying employee for years and I don't receive any union emails.
For a few months, they were being sent to my personal email, but not anymore.
I'm essentially paying $600+ a year for insurance against getting fired.

Don’t be angry. You’ll likely be removed from the bargaining unit anyway when you’re reclassified under Sch F, and all those union dues you paid for years will have been totally wasted.
But at least you got your advance copy of the arbitration decision! Only cost you $15,000 in dues.
