It's spelled out in the PWA and When Scheduling Calls. According to you, LC pilots should be tied to their phone 24/7 despite the unambiguous language to the contrary.

Your opinion about what a federal court would or would not do is just that-- an opinion.



Different issues. Different circumstances. It's hard to imagine what the irreparable harm would be in this situation. Or that there is a substantial likelihood that the company would prevail on the merits. But even if they did get an injunction, so what?
If you don't recognize the handicap that an injunction has on a labor union then you really should stop while you're only this far behind.

My "data" won't get publishing on an anonymous webboard, but a couple calls to my reps and the scheduling committee cleared it up for me.

If you're mad go see a therapist, if you're interested in negotiating a change to your working conditions then I suggest you leave the emotion at home.
