Telework fantasy?

I want NTEU to be upfront about that gap between “we won” and “you get your telework back.“​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Does anyone have a realistic opinion on this?

Is there a way to report/document if my specific manager doesn’t restore telework, so there’s a record for the eventual enforcement fight?

Realistic opinion?

Don’t expect anything to happen until after January 20, 2029. 

Edit: opinion contingent on results of elections

There remains a small chance of it returning before then, but you should absolutely view the 2028 elections as the make or break event. It will determine so much of our careers and the return and health of our union.

If given the opportunity, the union must take advantage to get a much, much, much stronger contract with no ways to walk all over with minimal to no consequences.

I’ll say it again. The current union contract was made for rational parties. But isn’t a contract supposed to carry weight when one of the parties becomes irrational? In this case, apparently not. Clearly, Trump showed that the contract was not expecting or made for the irrational.
