If I had to guess it would be August 23rd thru September 6th.

Not likely as the National Convention is during that time. It will be in September & likely the Saturday after the Holiday, 9/7-9/20. This end 2 weeks prior to the new Guarantee Year when the new Evals would start.

That's right, that Relief Carrier that's already screwing up your route 28% over a years time can cover that additional 6% no problem.

Depends on if a route has a lot of missequence like apartment routes do. A lot more rejects to count in the evening than a normal curb or neighborhood route does. I do not want to be gone for even 1 day of the MMS.

I've said it before, and I'll say it again.... you only need to be right 96% of the time, because nobody cares about the other 6%....

I've been off so much during the past 6 months; I've probably only contributed 28% of the eval.... good thing I probably won't be there for the next eval...That's right, that Relief Carrier that's already screwing up your route 28% over a years time can cover that additional 6% no problem.

Today I say this, but I plan to give 100% up the very end. I have been taking one sick day a week for the last year except for prime time holiday season. I'm down to 35 sick days remaining which should take me pretty close to the end at that burn rate, if I'm able to continue the same. Add to that 6 weeks of Annual between now and then. So my contribution will be limited also during my remaining time which is just over 52 weeks.I've been off so much during the past 6 months; I've probably only contributed 28% of the eval.... good thing I probably won't be there for the next eval...

That is my one regret, that I didn't use more of my SL.... but, oh well, I guess you can't always get it all... but with USPS nothing is hassle free, and I had/have about 3 times the SL you have now.... so, I'll settle for the service credit.... I think it comes out to 5 months.... big whoop....
Nowadays, when I make a couple of trips to the door, I have a hard time entering those, haven't done a stamp sale entry in forever, if I can see to the end of the road, and no flag up, and they have no mail, I turn around and head the other way, if it fits in the mailbox, that's where it goes, I'm hustling thru load times and EOS, wth... it's hard to care when you're eyeballing the exit.... maybe you'll feel different... good luck with that....

During this payroll year alone I have earned almost $7000 with my Sick time usage. I know you know how many years in retirement it would take to earn that back with that service credit time. The frosting on the cake is that I've also been working only 4 day weeks while doing this.
That why I said that I plan on giving 100% right to the end, because at six months out building or maintaining Evaluation will mean little to me. I only have two more MMS/Evaluations that I can benefit from.Nowadays, when I make a couple of trips to the door, I have a hard time entering those, haven't done a stamp sale entry in forever, if I can see to the end of the road, and no flag up, and they have no mail, I turn around and head the other way, if it fits in the mailbox, that's where it goes, I'm hustling thru load times and EOS, wth... it's hard to care when you're eyeballing the exit.... maybe you'll feel different... good luck with that....

There are always different ways of looking at the leave (both AL & SL).... If you hadn't taken the SL.... you would have earned that same $7K by working, and you'd still have the SL that could add to your service time at the end.... but, I get it... taking a day a week off is nice as well...
