After creating a junction, the annotation is automatically placed on the plan. While this often does a good job at placing the text the text may still overlap other design items on the site or texts on imported drawings.

Alternatively, you can enter the Move Annotation tool and right click without having an annotation selected. Then, from the right click menu, select Use Automatic Position. This will allow you to select multiple annotations in a row to set them back to automic positioning. When you are done you can right click again and untick Use Automatic Position to return to manual text position or select Quit Command.
