Timekeeper here, and I just found out something today and wondered if this was the absolute correct way to go about full-time officers calling out on or 2 days before or after a holiday? by Megalorye in tsa

I really appreciate your support, and will never stop seeking out the correct way to do things. I had to fight a few battles already to get to the bottom of some situations, and I plan on continuing these battles for as long as I live.

As a military reservist, not national guard, are you allowed to use leave days other than "Military Leave" or "Leave without Pay" while activated for drill or annual training, such as "Annual Leave" or "S-1 Administration Leave" days for example? by Megalorye in tsa

I think you just found me the smoking gun, and I can't even begin to thank you enough! I'll pass it on to my bosses, and add all of this to the payroll guide I've been building ever since I became a timekeeper.

I can't even begin to tell you how much even seasoned personnel at my airport do not know, and I plan on staying for quite sometime, and really want to get all of the facts right to not only know for my own personal use, but to pass on to my fellow military members and transportation security officers as well.

Yeah, I just read that, and below it is says something about failing to show for duty, but a call out isn't this is it:

An employee, who is not excused from duty and fails to report for duty when required/scheduled to work on a holiday, will be charged AWOL and will not receive payment for the holiday.

This doesn't apply to a call out correct? This is pulled from the directive.

She said because the officer in question called out, and the only time you earn the holiday leave is when you schedule in lieu of leave. Essentially, what she said, and I guess what the payroll rules are, is that if an officer calls out they get no holiday anything... is this correct?

First year is probation, but a lot of people tend to leave on their own accord in the first year. You'll pretty much be in training for the first two years, once you get all the certifications, that's when you're really useful, and can pick up lots of overtime.

Year 3 with locality you're making almost $20,000 more from where you started.

Orlando from what I hear is rough, but they have unlimited overtime and work incentives, so it's one of the best places to make big money.

I did not know that, thank you.

Some of my fellow officers just earned roughly a 2% raise in April, and they would like to know what it was for? by Megalorye in tsa

[–]Megalorye[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Could you elaborate a little further. Is there a set amount of time that passes before you get it, and how often if you know. Will we still get it after pay equity goes live in July?

Are you satisfied with your pay equity letters guys and gals? by Megalorye in tsa

Okay, so it can go higher than F-5 at the start, thanks for clearing that up, and congratulations!

I see. I think the new pay scale was designed to push the old guard out on their own accord. Although you guys will still have all of the pay raises you earned over the years factored into your pay equity I believe, so I think a lot will still stay, but I believe that if an officer is eligible for retirement, they may do so sooner now than later.

Oh damn... that doesn't sound good at all to me. When does it say your next step increase will be, 2 years from now?
