ok, so what...who cares what happens to Postmasters, most of them are ***holes anyway..... so why post their crap on our website?

just a thought, maybe they will stop us too, something else to get back to us..

Our postmaster had posted this in our post office, also, in error. It applies only to managers/supervisors.

Are you guys sure it does not affect carriers trying for a mutual swap. I would really like to know for sure.

I'm in the process of a mutual and so far it's still a go. I talked with my human resource and like Steven Murray said, "it only applies to managers/supervisors." When I first heard about this...I went to the NALC website and there was no indication of such an event affecting the letter carrier craft...hope this helps

Hey guys the FREEZE is for ALL of US.....Please go to this website: governmentexecutive.com dated Sept 23,2008..We are all screwed...

Once you go to the website, where do you find the information?

I talked to the person in charge of doing paperwork for swaps today and he told me they are still doing carrier swaps.

I attended the COPE convention in Las Vegas on Sunday and spoke with our union pres. Bill Young. It doesn't look like any transfers,swaps. e-assigns or movement of any type will be allowed until the post office straightens out its' financial mess. He said he is going to address this with postal authorities but has no idea if any progress will be made.He is concerned that management will go back to contracting out our jobs again.

guy in my office is leaving this weekend with an e-reasignment, Not sure I understand what he means no transfers ? Please help

Doug, hr may have been approved before the freeze went into effect. From what I gathered from talking to Bill Young is that the post office was putting a total freeze in place. He did say that it's possible that in extreme situations that they may allow transfers, but that the free movement is being suspended for the time being.

Douglas, Where did he get e-reassigned to? How long did he wait for it to come thru? thanks, Bill

An update about mutual trades. They are allowed according to the BA for my region. E-transfers are on hold as are new hires and upgrades.
