2025 VACATION SELECTIONS
Vacation selections started as of December 2nd, 2024, for our 2025 Annual leave Boards for our career carriers and our CCA brothers and sisters. Make sure you take the time you earn and spend with your loved ones on vacation when it’s your time to get away from the job.
CCA UNIFORM BANK
We have a lot of new CCA brothers and sisters hiring into our branch. We also have a few that resign within a month of being hired for different reasons. With that, please be sure and share with our new CCA brothers and sisters that they need at least 45 days of working before they are able to come over to the branch to shop at the CCA Uniform Bank. In this time, most CCAs have decided if they are going to stay with the job and we want to make sure we are getting these uniforms to brothers and sisters who stick with the job and not take our uniforms and leave before 45 days of work.
We are in need of winter gear with the Michigan winter upon us. Please bring in your gently used winter gear and uniforms to your office. Your steward will make sure the donation gets to the union hall. If you are retired and have uniforms, please stop by the hall and say hello, have a cup of coffee. An officer will be glad to assist you and take your donation.
We all were new carriers once upon a time in our careers. Reach out to our new brothers and sisters and encourage them to stick it out. Ask them how is it going? Give them a few pointers. This goes a long way and encourages our new brothers and sisters to hang in there. It will get better.
Happy Holidays from my family to yours!
