Not half pay protection, or half pay protections and some make-up credit.
Positive Rate Weekly, 4/22/14
Call-In Jury Duty Settlement Agreement
"On effective date of next CBA,2. All call-in jury duty pay protection paid at 50%
o the CH value of the dropped trip/R-day that will go into make-up will not be deducted from the pilot’s pay until the paycheck issued on the 15th day of the third ensuing calendar month (e.g. – if January bid period trip dropped, the deduction will be on April 15 paycheck if hours not made up)"
WHY are we agreeing to half pay for a whole day of work?
Who made this agreement? Did the MEC know about it and agree to it, or did the MEC Chairman sign it and brief them afterwards on a teleconference?
What's next? Half pay on R-days where you don't actually fly? Third pay for airport standbys when you don't launch?

Do not spit up your dinner but we agree!!! Why give up 50% when the contract language is clear!
