Just start having Evaluation Adjustments once a year (every 52 weeks), not every 6 months. Have them completed just after the RRECS/MMS results have been calculated.
Many of the reasons why I retired early. I haven’t been on this site for 6 months, just came back to see how things are going and nothing has changed. Makes my decision one of the best I’ve ever had
. I hope you can all survive this!
I’m with you. I advised my co workers to email the union president and tell him how disappointed we are with how the union has let us down. But I think we all need to file complaints against the union. The fact that we can’t strike because it’s in our contract? Makes it easier for them to continue to let us down
Yes . If nobody object to one or two pay periods of missing data at the least which will occur for sure . They can never perform with the same week as mail will be coming to old routes . There has to be a gap for AMS and plant to be updated . It has to be in different time . Otherwise same result as now would show up . MMS manual data’s also will be of full not cut route . If they can overcome these things , it is actually not a bad idea . Who knows they might move to this solution eventually. Lot of people likes idea of mms once a year already . I personally like the idea of 6 months mms more than longer period .
Yeah..it's called hourly
That point escapes everyone’s mind . We ( most of us ) want evaluated system but demand to be paid if ever worked over evaluation. At the same time believe it’s okay to be paid even working under time . It doesn’t work that way . Either straight time or evaluation assumption.
No you dont get it.
There is no promise . You will get paid what is the delivery amount and corresponding evaluation at the time of your work . If your delivery address amount changes with adjustment your payment will change . 12 months of data and mms is to determine the evaluation of the route with intact delivery address amount . WE NEVER GET PAID FOR ACTUAL WORK WE DO . WE GET PAID FOR THE ASSUMED WORK ( BY EVALUATION) WE ARE DOING NOW . Otherwise we would continue to get paid for a route for 52 weeks if we leave that route ( quit , fired , retire or move to another route )
I would argue that the 52 week period would start from the effective date of route cuts before the last mms. So July 2025 and then evaluated after the mms in Aug.
Yes . 52 weeks is attached to route cut , not the effective date of first freeze, as far as I can tell
Exactly!!!!!
THIS! My route was a 48k. I was cut to a 43k in July. Next evaluation was 46k. Now they are saying I'm only going to get paid for 43k AND will be charged BACK PAY?????? Are you kidding me? So much was added to my route for years without compensation since it caps at 48k. WTF?!
Exactly! We've been punished and overworked for years. This is unfair!
THIS!
the data is meant to make a hypothetical eval of the next 6 months work wise you will complete. It’s the same way old count worked just more precise in many aspects and allows us to influence it by our actions. The data is not used to actually pay us for past work but the predicted future. Yes is a small difference, but it is also the reason we are not actually piece work and instead salary. I hope that clarifies it.
I'm in the same boat! Infuriating!!!!!
Seems like there are a lot of us in the same boat. Some of us in our office are canceling our dues. Why pay a union that makes a deal with USPS to cut our routes back to 43k but keep the territory that was counted as a 48k. Then make us pay back what we made . They are like politicians. Working together to line their pockets as they take from ours!
Maybe you do, I don't. My route has been evaluated at over 70 standard hours for the last two years (currently 75 standard hours) and I can assure you I'm not being paid for the assumed work I've been doing.
I guess it's true then.... "ASSUME" really does mean, makes an @$$ out of YOU and ME.... doh.... @$$ U ME....
