B757200ER, all I'm asking is to not punish the EOS pilots. Jumpseating is a two-way street as you say but it still seems like you are taking your anger out on the rank and file and not directing it where it belongs. But I share your pain, when I was with Transmeridian a few years back I could not use Continental to commute from home to Houston where I was based. I never figured out if it was the MEC or management that did not want a jumpseat agreement with TMA and in the end it didn't really matter. I too was not happy about it but I did recognize that it was not the individual pilot who was to blame. If you see an EOS pilot in the terminal don't frown but tip your hat instead. Understand that each of the pilots you see is working very hard to change management's attitude about jumpseating. It is the EOS management that is attracting the bad reputation, it should not be the pilots.
