In between the Office of Personnel Management asking agencies to be patient with employees who are having trouble getting to work, and reports that the Transportation Security Administration marked employees who couldn't get to work because of snow Away Without Leave, I wonder if it would make sense to set up some sort of swift, temporary appeals process for weather-related personnel complaints. Perhaps it would be too unwieldy, or there are merit systems issues at stake. But I'd bet TSA isn't the only place where there have been employee complaints, and it makes sense not to let issues stemming from an extraordinarily unusual event swell normal backlogs.
