Thats like putting the cart long before the horses.geo said:Other alternative is... file a grievance for a misc deduction for which you don't have a clue to it's being there.
Let them prove to you that it's appropriate

CDN Aviator said:Same here. I've also seen my share of troops who couldn't keep their own admin straight, neglect to hand in claims on time, don't keep the required receipts, spend their advances before leaving on the course/tasking......etc....
X-mo-1979 said:Agreed.
It's a two way street.
I have had zero issues as a Mcpl,however as a cpl/tpr going into the clerks office with some clerks my admin seemed to be a burden to them.I.E "did you find my birth certificate yet?" etc.
However I also talked to my guys about bugging the poor clerk with B/S,before they went to talk to her they talk to me.At least then if I perceive someone messing someone around (either side)appropriate action can be taken.
They certainly do ... once all other avenues havebeen exhausted. Submitting a grievance at this stage would only result in but a few scenarios. Yes you may get the answer you are seeking, and will also suffer the wrath of CoC for the misuse of CF ressources. Or it will simply be thrown out and in either case end labelling yourself.geo said:well, if someone deducted 1400 from my pay without any explanation, I'd certainly want an explanation OR to get the $$$ back. Grievances do that you know... and if the Admin staff get away with stringing him around beyond 6 months... the grievance process would no longer be an option.
Cover all bases... always
X-mo-1979 said:No I'm talking about a goverment issued birth certificate from NFLD.Which my mother had to get twice as my clerk LOST it twice.
The goverment building actually called me to make sure it was me requesting the birth certificates,to ensure it wasnt fraud.
They asl explained to me the possiability of idenity fraud with now two missing birth certificates which my clerk could not find avant two dags.
I complained,nothing was done.
This clerk is now a sgt.
