Just echoing Derek’s update, we will be transitioning to 5 on 5 off starting May 28th. This falls partway through pay period 12, at the end of crew 3’s 5 day rotation. Basically we split crew 2 up and now we have 2 total crews with 3 on the day and 3 on the swing. Derek also mentioned that we will be able to accommodate additional admin days during your 5 day rotation. Vaden and I will be going through to determine what that will look like. But I can’t stress this enough, if you are put on an additional admin day during your 5 day rotation, it is imperative that you know that you are 100% recallable and you need to answer your phone in the event you are called in. I guarantee as soon as someone doesn’t come in on a recallable shift, it will be taken away. Once we come up with who gets what day(s) in their 5 day rotation as a recallable admin day, we will let you know.
Also, I have reached out to some of you already regarding bid leave and if you still wanted it before we found out that we are going to 5 on 5 off. If something has changed and you still want your leave or don’t want your leave, please let myself or Vaden know so we can make the proper adjustments.
I truly appreciate everyone’s understanding and flexibility with all these changes we have been dealing with. I know its not easy to have things change around so much. Please as always don’t hesitate to reach out it you need anything.
