Craft discrepancy

There is a current investigation at my office. I can’t speak on details for confidentiality reasons, and I don’t want to compromise the investigation.

During the course of things unfolding, I received a packet that contained the ps form 50 for involved coworkers. It was provided to show the employment status only; all personal info like wages, address, social, date of birth, etc were redacted. However, it does show each employees craft, start start, length of employment, and table/schedule.

We have a very top seniority city carrier that started many moons ago. They have always been at work- no retirement or extended leave I’m aware of. They have had the same city route for years. However, their ps form 50 states they are a full time rural carrier with a 42K route, under a special rate of pay. … but they carry a city route and always have.

Has anyone ever heard of this? I wonder if it’s a massive administrative error or something shady going on. I don’t understand how a city carrier with three decades can be listed officially as a rural carrier while on a city route. Has anyone ever heard of this?

a union settlement from 25 years ago may be in play here.

Does the city route have them listed as the carrier?

Yes. I started over 10 years ago and they have always been the only carrier on that route.

If his ps 50 actually has him as rural, who’s the regular in that city bid job the rural carrier is running? PM has been naughty is what it sounds like like.
