Was an rca for almost 13years and would love the opportunity to buy back my time. I sent a email to Jack Bergman’s office in northern Michigan about this and recieved a call back saying the F.R.F.A. is on his radar. 😊💪🙏
Wont happen. GQP wont allow anything to be pa*sed.
I have 16 years as Rca and only 5 years full time. This would be Great been watching in the past and hope this time it makes it in!!!
I also spent 14 years as an RCA. 2 and a half , I was full time . , this would be great , I’ve been full time for almost 16 years !!!
Worst years of career was RCA, hard work worst now . Yes I would love to buy back my 13 years of hard work,
Only 4 more years to get my 20 retirement, 15 yrs,6 mths,sub time.. I could have been out years ago,, 35 yrs,20 yr pension 🙁
I hope it pa*ses. I want to buy it back, no matter the cost!
I hope and pray it does I have worked so hard for this company! 22 years 9 as rca
It’s really not worth the buy back It takes about 10 years to recoup the money spent That’s an average There are better uses of your money
So, if I buy back 7 years as an RCA. What is the benefit? Is there some kind of matching contributions? Sooner retirement with more money?
It says temporary position not part time positions. Will this keep USPS out???
