Supervisors can't get away from management, either

Everyone's heard that the Supervising PCOs' furloughs were picked for them by management without regard for bid, right?

Well, in case you hadn't heard, they were.

Some of them have decided that they're not going to take the full furlough segments given to them. That's surely their prerogative. Many a PCO takes a few days short of the full segment, and even more PCOs work their RDOs during furlough. In fact, as OEMC employees in good standing, even on furlough they're free to enter and leave the building as they please or need.

The supervisors must be different. Seems that one of the supervisors got screwed with 1B and 2A furlough segments for 2007, and decided not to use all of his/her vacation days during the consecutive segments. Well, the Deputy Director decided that just won't do, and said supervisor is BARRED from the building during 1B. The DD went so far to say that if this supervisor is seen in the building during 1B, he/she will be removed from the building.

We foresee legal action, although the DD has weathered such before, more than once.

The Teamsters (the supervisors' union, pending a judge's ruling) contacted Corporation Counsel (the law office that taxpayers pay to agree to costly settlements in cases against the city). Corporation Counsel not-so-politely instructed the Teamsters to call back when they have the judge's ruling, which is rumored to be on the way late this month.

We anxiously await the outcome.

It seems that the Acting D/D (don't forget her title is still Acting and not worthy of an Oscar)is angry these days. She lashes out at those she thought would hold up her rants against the hardworking members of the operations floor. They too realized after going through the process that she has no Respect for anyone not even herself. Cudos to the Supv for standing their ground. I hope when the Teamsters come in there they cut her and that other poor Actor on the 4th floor to shreds.

How can the Acting D/D BAR anyone from the building during their furlo?? That's ridiculous.

And I'd like to see MK and CW fight it out - physically. That would be some funny shit. They both fight dirty.
