Of course, you should remember that these things work both ways. As I said, it matters not to me that I don't make it to work because a disgruntled RJ Captain doesn't want to take me. I've got a commuter policy in my contract. But deny me the jumpseat going HOME and it will be a different matter, especially since you are holding me responsible for something that Jeff did to you... not the United pilots. You have a LOOOONNNGGGG way to go to catch up to how much money that clown cost me. It's very easy for all of us to deny UAX pilots the jumpseat right back. You can go pay the $20 each leg in the back if you are lucky enough to get on (summer is coming). I hope you work for a regional with a union and a good commuter policy!

Now that I've written it... I would never do that. I don't take out my frustrations on poor management decisions on pilots. It's unprofessional.
