And if JPA Fails??

[Lost & Filed]

JPA. I got in this morning and went to check whether my leave had been actioned only to find out that we were all shut out so that they can get the Pay Roll done.

Someone would have thought that they would have tried and tested all this before going live and then finding all the faults that need to be sorted. But OH NO, that's too bloody easy for the hierarchy, let's just throw everyone in at the deep end and see who swims and who sinks, as per bloody usual.

The thing that they don't tell us as well is that once the Navy and the Army go live there will be at 9 day period each time where no-one can access JPA and do anything. Not that we can do anything at the moment.

Oh and don't even get me started on Pay. I phoned up JPAC to find out why I was getting charged abated food for a couple of weeks last year - I'm down as Mat Cat 3 and was living in for a year, after speaking to a SNCO at lovely ole PMA, they have me as Mat Cat 2 living in (which should pay abated food), so does that mean then that I'm going to be getting all that food paid back and then taken off again at a later date.

It happened again in last months pay slip, so I went and spoke to a m8 in PSF who said to phone JPAC, so I did and got told by them to speak to Unit HR as they don't have any specialists there that can help. So went back to speak to my m8 in PSF and got told wait until the pay run happens at the end of the month and hopefully it should be sorted as they will just tell us what they told you. This is from an adminer to an adminer.

What's this bloody air force coming to. It's turning out to be more like a Private Flying Club than a fighting force to be proud of.

I'll tell you something for nothing, that Tranche 3 is looking more and more favourable as time goes by.
