So with the postal service looking to fill spots nationwide would it be easier to get a reassignment now? I was informed I would become a PTF if transferred would it be better to seek a swap if possible? I'm a little nervous losing my route and going to PTF status if my transfer were to go through.

I transferred from Texas to portland, then got a hardship transfer from Portland to Seattle and both stations I was transferred as a regular but I did loose my seniority!
