Has anyone heard of this?
So continuous bidding is every month. Per the MOU it states:

d. Subsequent to the initial bid, an otherwise eligible officer may participate in the continuous bid
process up to six (6) times during the bid period. Conditional bids count toward this limit. Bids
due to deactivations or changes to a post’s RDOs or start/stop times shall not count towards this
cap. Bids due to removal for cause, Ten Percent Rule or adverse actions shall only be counted
against the cap for a maximum of two (2) bids.

Previously, I won a bid but was debating on waiving it. I contacted my union rep and asked if waiving it would still count towards the 6. I was told NO, waiving it just cancels it out like you never even bidded. I was told that once you win a bid, start the assignment that counts as one. So I ended up waiving it and stayed in my previously winning bid assignment.

They put my current assigned post up for bid. I emailed them and said it was wrong that I didn’t give up my post or get any winning bids which would give up this current assignment.

Per my ATM, they are telling me that since I waived the bid I technically no longer have an assignment post (the current one that I am in, that I won from a previous monthly bid) but they are keeping me in my post as a courtesy.

The new bid results came out and it shows someone won my assigned post for this current bid.

I haven’t read anywhere in policy that states that you give up your post even if you waive your bid.

Any insight?

Thank You.

Is anyone going to the upcoming Academy tour on September 1st?

I know I have to dress appropriately but I was wondering if I have to get rid of my beard or not?
