AWAC has a contractual requirement of 12 days off a month. If I want to pick up opentime that will take me under 12 days off a month (as long as nobody is on furlough), so be it...that's my decision to make.

We also have a Min Day credit of 3:00. If my last day is worth 4:35 but I want to drop my last turn to commute home (reducing my block down to say 1:45), I have to waive the Min Day portion of the contract for Crew Scheduling to approve the drop. Once again, that is my decision...for many, QOL is more important than a couple extra hours of pay.

These specific examples (and similar ones like them) absolutely DO NOT AFFECT UNITY DURING CONTRACT NEGOTIATIONS, and are different that being a complete and total company *****, waiving the CBA at will to "help the company out". That kinda stuff *does* affect unity...
