Long call should be long call. All month long I get converted and then surprise surprise, assigned to a trip. Can only be converted 2 times a bid period
No calls to be released and no waiting at the airport for an hour to see if something comes up. Never need to call, only check the computer (which most of us can do from our smartphone as we leave the airport). Scheduling has 15 mins after you block in to give you an assignment otherwise you are released to days off/rest
We also need a percentage of reserve lines that have weekends off since they company refuses to make any that have weekend GDO's anymore. I like this. I've almost forgotten what a weekend is!
Ready reserve needs to 4 hours for 4 hours, with no overlapped time in the morning at night when there are no departures. Have this already
I think our MEC needs to mail each legacy ASA pilot a copy of our contract. Us Jetstinkers are not the evil, company-ruining, over-paid, under-worked types we have been made out to be!
